Oprah is taking her talk show off the air!
This has to be one of the most shocking headlines in the news this year. Okay, I’m exaggerating just a bit, but it is Oprah.
Everyone one and their cousin knows who Oprah is. I’m not saying that I’m a dedicated viewer of her talk show, but I do enjoy relaxing to an afternoon snack with Oprah and her guests. She is a legend who has become known as one of the most famous talk show hosts in America.
Oprah announced this shocking news during one of the million “Oprah Winfrey Shows” on November 20th. As this news was heard by the public, I am positive that millions of Americans were shocked, disappointed, and full of disbelief. I mean, how can society go on without this incredible icon?
Growing up, Oprah was on the television in my house everyday at 4 p.m. The thing that is so incredible about Oprah Winfrey is that she is real. Although she may seem perfect at times, she has a way of relating to her viewers and making them feel as if she is a close friend of the family. America has watched her struggle with things such as her weight and relationships, and supported her every step of the way. She comes on the show with so much energy and enthusiasm, giving viewers a new sense of motivation.
There are some shows that viewers will never forget, like Oprah’s “Favorite Things,” which is  an episode that occurs every year dedicated to giving out free stuff to every member of the audience, and not just any “free stuff.” In 2004, Oprah gave away 276 cars, one to every single audience member. According to People Magazine, EMT specialists were present on the set in case any one suffered from over excitement.
Then there’s the episode when American viewers found out that Tom Cruise is a nut job. In 2005, Cruise jumped up and down on Oprah’s couch screaming, “I’m in love! I’m in love!” Oh jeez …
So everyone’s wondering who in the world is going to replace Winfrey? There’s been discussion about other well-known talk show hosts such as Tyra Banks, Ellen DeGeneres and Kelly Ripa. But seriously, I do not believe anyone can replace Oprah. She is irreplaceable, and no talk show will ever compare to “The Oprah Winfrey Show.”
Oprah stated regarding her retirement, “This show has been my life, and I love it enough to know when it’s time to say goodbye.” On Sept. 9, 2011, citizens of America will gather around their television sets, and watch as the inspirational Oprah Winfrey ends her show after 25 successful years.
I guess all good things do come to an end, but “The Oprah Winfrey Show” will never be forgotten.
