She needs: 2 sitcoms, 2 dramas, a made-for-tv movie (ala Hallmark channel), news programming, an exciting cutting edge talk-show, some type of sports-special (ala wide world of sports), 4 reality shows (books, documentaries, nonprofits, etc.). I want Oprah to succeed, and I will continue to watch and hope for the best. I love OWN.

How are those people she let go going to pay their bills? How much money does she need in her pockets before she starts to share the wealth? As to cancelling "The Rosie Show" - congratulations, but that's like a shark feeding on it's own. When did Oprah become a money grubbing Republican interested in only the bottom line?

I mean what a worn out tired character, we all know Rosie's true personality, she's just toned it down so that she's acceptable to a tv audience. BORING.
