I used to Love Love Love La Winfrey.

Loved Dr Phil when he was on there.

Loved Tom Cruise going nuts on there.

Loved the most amazing 'everyone in the audience gets a car' giveaway (I've got a link somewhere)
But I agree she's gorn a bit 'worthy'

Bring back 'Jeans that make your tush look cute'

What channel is she on? I'd watch again if I knew.

WH Smith carries the mag.

i subscribe to it.

i love dr phil, 'you're burning daylight!' 'do you want to be happy, or do you want to be right?'

I love Oprah. I prefer to Sky+ and then watch the non cleb ones esp when they are fashion or home related although she doesn't seem to do very many of those type of shows recently.
I like the live you best life type of thing she does.
Isn't she supposed to be the most influential person in the WORLD! More so than presidents etc..
She's no Richard and Judy though

I really like Oprah, but always feel a little like she is preaching at me. Not me, personally.

I liked Dr. Phil and his tough love approaches until he made comments on Britney Spears that apparently had been discussed with him and her parents in private. He didn't seem quite as well-intentioned after that.

Gay Byrne had a tv show that was on during the afternoons on ITV about 15 years ago. I was on night shift and used to wake up early just to watch it, it was hilarious and perhaps unintentionally so!

Oprah, I tape every day and then read the synopsis before deciding to either watch or delete. Yes I am that sad. She had a really good interview this week with the parents of the girl whose identity was mixed up in an accident with her friend who died. It was fascinating to hear from the families.

A bit hit and miss though, lots of Dr Oz shows.
