Oprah's Talk Show Retirement Lasts Six Months
OWN has been trouble from day one. As good as Oprah is about managing her Harpo empire, she is really bad about managing her own television network. I think her other Harpo shows did and do so well because she introduced people like Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz and Rachael Ray and people got used to them and they flourished after Oprah sent them on their way. Now though without a talk show to launch shows and people she has been way less successful. To make OWN better she has decided to start a talk show of her own called Oprah's Next Chapter and it premieres in January. It is basically going to be a copy of what Barbara Walters does when she interviews celebrities at home.
