Actor Liam Neeson admitted during a recent interview that he was not a fan of his own appearance on ABC’s midday talk show “The View,” complaining that most of the segment had been wasted on co-host Joy Behar’s crush on him.

The Irish actor appeared on the February 15th broadcast, and after a brief conversation about his new movie, “Marlowe,” the topic turned to Behar’s long-standing crush on the “Taken” star.

Noting that she had gotten a belated Valentine’s Day card from the actor before the show, Behar said that she had been disappointed to learn that he had given similar cards to her co-hosts as well. The segment concluded with nearly a full minute of past video clips of Behar fawning over Neeson.

Neeson told Rolling Stone that he had been looking forward to talking about the film — and had been intrigued by the gun control conversation that was going on during the segment prior to his — but was disappointed and “not impressed” when nearly all of his time was taken up by Behar gushing over him.

“I was in the dressing room drinking a cup of tea, turned the TV up, and I thought, oh, this will be great. They’re talking about gun violence in America, and I agree that it’s an American problem,” Neeson said, adding, “I go onstage and join the ladies during the break, and I was congratulating them on this discussion.”

“And then our segment starts and it’s just all this BS,” Neeson continued, saying that the entire situation — with Behar fawning over him and the others cheering her on — had made for an awkward segment as far as he was concerned.

“I’ve known Whoopi for years and Joy a little bit, but I just wasn’t impressed. I’m uncomfortable in those situations, you know?” he continued. “One of the ladies [Sunny Hostin] is a prosecutor and we had a little chat afterward and it was a good, intelligent conversation, but then the segment’s all about this — oof —thirteen, fourteen-year-old crush. It’s just a bit embarrassing.”
