Just get off stage, GAAAAK!

[a fool in paradise]

So that means there’s one less excuse NOT to do the housework?

[Tanniker Smith]

(Gag me with a spoon!)

Is that supposed to represent 25 years ago?

[American Quilter]

FINALLY. Wasn’t it at least two years ago that she made her initial announcement about leaving?

[Spok]

You might say she’s outgrown the small screen.

[RexBeach]

I’ll tell you this: I do not agree with much of what Oprah appears to believe, politically or culturally.

But tomorrow, if her entire life just fell apart, she’d probably pick herself up and begin all over again.

I admire that.

Her program, though my wife loves it, makes me want to run for the castor oil. Ugh.

[ReneeLynn]

Years too late. Now what kind of new crap are they going to replace her with? Please, no more talk shows with a bunch of women sitting around yapping.

[Huskrrrr]

I’ve yet to watch my first Oprah show. I see no reason to start now.

[Jonty30]

Did she announce her lesbianism, as the tabloids claimed she would?

[camle]

it’s about time! retire already willya?

25 years ago, in 1986, in the middle of the Reagan years, a black actress started a daytime talk show and became a billionaire as a result.

Is that because white audiences are racist?

The fact that Oprah Winfrey had a show on TV for 25 years that consistantly was highly rated, highly awarded, and became a cultural touchstone is evidence that we already live in a post-racial America.

[Salamander]

Oprah had a TV show?

[Fiddlstix]

[swain_forkbeard]

Proud to say, I never saw a minute of it.

[EyeGuy]

25 years of an hour long program on 5 days per week?

What percentage, is the 12 full seconds I’ve tuned in, of all those hours?

Still, way too much.

[from occupied ga]

(Gag me with a spoon! turd)

There fixed it.

[UCANSEE2]

I’m glad to see the last of the Harpo Brothers retire. They all had a long and happy career.

[nina0113]

And I never watched a single episode.

[apillar]

You know, I can honestly say I have never watched Oprah. I'm sure I've caught bits and pieces in a waiting room at the Dr's office or seen segments replayed on other shows. But in 25 years I have never actually sat down, turned the TV on, and watched Oprah.

[Churchillspirit]

Once I accidentally saw part of an Oprah show. She was pulling a cart onto the stage stacked with 50 lbs. of lard....something about her losing weight.

I'm more careful in my channel surfing now!
