OWN has pulled the plug on Rosie ODonnell's five-month old talk show.
The daily show will tape its final episode on Tuesday, March 20 to air on Friday, March 30 in its 7 p.m. time slot. The news of its demise comes two months after the ailing network announced it had hired Shane Farley (Rachel Ray, Rosie ODonnell Show) to replace Page Hurwitz as the shows executive producer and would move Rosie into a significantly smaller 70-seat studio. The latter was a bid to inspire a sense of intimacy and lower costs on a series that is averaging 190,000 viewers.
I thank Rosie from the bottom of my heart for joining me on this journey. She has been an incredible partner, working to deliver the best possible show every single day, said OWN chief Oprah Winfrey in a statement. As I have learned in the last 15 months, a new network launch is always a challenge and ratings grow over time as you continue to gather an audience. Im grateful to Rosie and the dedicated Rosie Show team for giving it their all.

Oh that is just too bad.........NOT!
I knew this was going to happen once TV became flooded with lesbians. They’re not the curiousity they once were.
I didn’t even know she had a show. Oprah lost the last of my tiny interest in who she was when she began putting her face on every issue of her magazine. What is wrong with her ego? So Rosie had a show. Let bygones be by...and gone.
Someone needs to post the pic of Nelson Muntz yelling HA HA..I didn’t even know this fat turd even had a show
She can join “perky” Katie Couric’s new talkshow, “Katie”!
(probably the 1st of a thousand or so..)
>>She can join perky Katie Courics new talkshow, Katie!<<
Is that old hag still around? I thought she puttered off to Woodland Hills to pass with the rest of the has-beens.
This time they can really shovel the dirt over Rosie's “career”. she couldn't make it as a comedian she couldn't make it in the movies, and she has now repeatedly failed as a talk show host. What else can she fail at?
isn’t rosie extremely wealthy. She need to start her own business and hire people. Maybe invest with Solyndra
I have to say this “Guns Kill people just like a knife and fork made Rosie O’Donnell fat”
