Oprah's new Oprah show on 'Oprah' on the Oprah network

oprah-winfrey-afi-09-320.jpgIf you thought Oprah Winfrey appearing on every cover of "O" magazine was overkill, how about an Oprah show about another Oprah show?

When the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) debuts in January 2011, it faces a particular conundrum: How to create a show about Oprah that isn't the same as her syndicated talk show, which will still be airing until September of that year?

Lightbulb moment: How about the reality series "Behind the Scenes: Oprah's 25th Season" that's all about the syndicated talk show's final season? Yes, that's so crazy, it just might work.

"Behind the Scenes" will be a weekly series that debuts in January 2011, reports the New York Times.

The paper also reports that OWN is planning an additional four unscripted series: "Kid-napped," about kids who steal away their workaholic parents; "Miracle Detectives" about skeptics and believers; the women's prison series "Sentenced" and "Search," about a woman who finds missing persons.

The should really have a flagging system or a report system. This is becoming ridiculous!

Seriously, does Oprah know that only unemployment individuals watch her show? Honestly, that's one of the main reasons her magazine didn't fare well and now this... She needs to be kicked off the air with Jay Leno, Heroes and every show about Doctors.

This network is going to suck bigtime and hoping it fails quickly like Leno's show did.

Yet another reason why Oprah annoys the bejeezus out of me.

luv Oprah, but sorry, this new network she's making doesn't sound good at all!

What an ego. First, the fact that her magazine (which of coarse she named after herself) always features her. Then, she wants to launch her own TV channel (named, of coarse, after her). Now a show about her show on her network?

People need to stop liking her (especially after she "gave" away cars, since a lot of media forgot to mention that those people were require to pay several thousand dollars in tax fees if they wanted to keep the cars).

This woman's arrogance in beyond belief. She needs to be kicked off the air now!

She should have quit 5 years ago when people still liked her. Now she's just saturating the media. Can we all say 'narcissist'?

I think that Oprah should run for senate, after all the things she has accomplished. Such as being an philanthropist, entrepreneur, and being ranked the number one talk show host of her decade. I think she would be able to help us african-american, single, women with children, in this bad time: recession. In conclulsion, you need to learn from her, and do what she did, and be all you can be.
