Oprah's half-sister reveal boosts series to highest ratings in nearly 6 years
It look little more than a long weekend of speculation to give "The Oprah Winfrey Show" its biggest numbers since 2005. Winfrey's special episode, in which she meets with the half-sister she went decades without knowing she had, averaged a 9.6 household rating.
Her series hasn't boasted a number that high since her post-Oscar broadcast from the Kodak Theatre in Feb, 2005.
Though she still beats a lot of her daytime competition, Winfrey's declining ratings have been widely publicized going into her final season. So this probably feels pretty good.

shocker
Now she returns to being an ego-maniac like she's always been.
it was a very touching and enlightening show!
WHO CARES?
Oprah said how she appreciated her half-sister not taking the story to the press like previous family members had, then she turns around and 'uses' her newfound family to get better ratings for her show.....real classy! Looks like the stunt worked!
