Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan started their last week together on "Live" by discussing Atlanta-filmed "Captain America: Civil War," which of course features the two key characters fighting and disagreeing and parting ways. Not awkward. At all.

UPDATE: #TeamRipa is flattening #TeamStrahan on Twitter .. Why do viewers care so much about morning TV hosts?

The two co-hosts also chatted about their weekends. Kelly shared some nice photos of her son's confirmation in the Catholic Church and said her family also attended a bar mitzvah and a bat mitzvah.

"We felt very holy," she quipped. "I prayed for all of y'all .. and I prayed for this show."
