[ # ] Oprah Winfrey giving up her syndicated show?
November 5th, 2009 under Oprah Winfrey


Is Oprah Winfrey giving up her syndicated talk show to save her cable network OWN? According to Nikki Finke, “the Discovery Communications chief David Zaslav has demanded that Oprah ‘move it or lose it’ — move her talk show to OWN, or risk losing the Oprah Winfrey Network altogether.” She added that she will make an announcement in the near future that she will be ending her show in 2011 and move it to her OWN cable network. She also said that Oprah was suppose to tell the head of CBS last month her decision whether or not she was going to renew her show, but has cancelled all of their meetings. If she decides to cancel her syndicated show it will be a big loss to CBS Television Distribution because it is the #1 syndicated program and will hurt them financially.
Personally I wouldn’t miss her because I never got her show or her popularity, but I know I am in the minority. Would you miss her show if it were just on cable?

I have never been an Oprah fan either. I could care less where she ends up. To me she is totally over-rated!

Oprah is too “into” herself and Hollywood. She seems to think all of America idolizes her Hollywood friends. I think they are all egotistical and boring. Good ridance Oprah!

Who cares what network it is? I agree, ” shes overrated”
I don’t know what is worse…her or the View. Any time I did watch her show, I never ever had (what does she call her so called, MOMENTS?) If people can’t figure out life on their own, through their own expeirences,success’ and failures….Oprah sure as hell can’t help them. Do we need anyone leading us around…to tell us whats good, whats bad…how you should feel…etc, etc, etc.? Its just sad there are so many simpletons out there that gave Oprah this level of fame…go the hell out…and figure life out on your own…Oprah sure figured out…how to get rich off of a bunch of nimrods…that need someone to tell them how to act…what to wear…how to ” FIND YOURSELF” OMG, how many times has Oprah, ” found herself” through the 100th ” I finally figured out why I’m fat ” BS. Maybe she should take her own advice…or shut the hell up…

I think her day is done.

If Oprah, Gail and her show left America today….It would be the BEST DAY for this country in history. She’s the BIGGEST hypocrite on this planet.

She espouses too much new age mumbo jumbo for me, and it’s kinda scary the way so many people ‘worship’ her (and so many other tv personallities). Can’t knock her generosity or her hustle though. But not too many of us can afford her ‘favorite things’.

Oprah Winfrey’s been on syndication for 23 years. I’m sure she’s tired of the grind of doing show after show after show. Plus, she’s had too many celebrities as of late versus her more important topics. She’s had a strong run. Plus, there’s competition like Ellen Degenres, Tyra Banks and Wendy Williams taking chunks or pieces of her audience. And that happens when shows are on for a long time. Oprah’s still popular, but not like 2 or 3 years ago.

As far as Oprah moving her show I feel that 25 years in one place is more than enough in the same place. After a while people get tired of the same old thing. Plus having just her face on her monthly book is for the birds. I would be happy to see Ellen’s or some one else from time to time.(Her pic has been airbrush so much till it look funny) I would not miss her at all. We all know that she has money to burn and can do as she well please. But, I think she has a double standard as far as helping people. There are lots of people in the USA that need new schools. But, why go all overseas to spread the wealth? Oh, well when do we say good bye?

OPRAH STARTED OUT GREAT. SHE, LIKE US “ALL” , LEARNED MORE ABOUT LIFE AS SHE GREW.THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS….OPRAH DID IT AND LIKE A “BORN AGAIN” CHRISTIAN…FELT THE NEED TO SHOVE IT DOWN OUR THROATS AS IF WE DIDN’T HAVE HALF THE INTELLIGENCE SHE HAS, SO SHE DECIDED TO LEAD US TO GREAT KNOWLEDGE AND HER WAY OF THINKING.
FIRST OFF…I’D RATHER DO IT MYSELF, AND SECOND…WHO DECIDED YOUR WAY IS THE BEST WAY…JUST CAUSE IT WORKS FOR YOU…..(AND ALL YOUR MILLIONS OF COURSE.) AND BY THE WAY, IS OPRAH TRYING TO BE SURE HER FACE AND NAME IS EVERYWHERE ON THE PLANET? IF WE LIKE DEAL OR NO DEAL….SHE GETS THE PROGRAM AND HOWIE ON HER SHOW SO SHE CAN PLAY TOO WHICH COMES OFF LIKE THE OLD COMIC BOOK KID..RICHIE RICH.. IF WE REALLY LOVE DR MCDREAMY…SHE ISN’T HAPPY TIL SHE HAS HIM ON HER SHOW AND ACTS LIKE THEY ARE FRIENDS FOR EVER. WHEN SHE FINALLY WENT ON LETTERMAN, SHE ACTED LIKE THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND COING BEFORE HER MERE MORTALS OF A PEOPLE. SHE ACTS AS THOUGH SHE IS ROYALTY. WE LIKED YOU FROM THE START OPRAH….U JUST SHOVED YOURSELF DOWN OUR THROATS!!!
WE KNOW YOU DID IT ALL ON YOUR OWN. WE APPLAUD YOU FOR THAT! BUT FOR GOD’S SAKE…STOP TRYING TO BE THE ALL AND EVERYTHING TO US. YOU ARE A TALK SHOW HOST, ALBEIT A RICH ONE, BUT YOU’RE NOT GOD-LIKE.
I SAY ALL THIS AS A REGULAR VIEWER, WHEN YOU HAVE A SUBJECT ON THAT INTERESTS ME.OTHERWISE I CHANGE THE CHANNEL.LIGHTEN UP OPRAH.
