UPDATE: Oprah knows a thing or two about sweeps -- and is saving her big announcement for the end of the show.
Oprah is about to personally announce that she's ending her reign as maybe the most successful person ever to host a show on TV. And you can see it all go down on TMZ.
BTW, as we first reported, Oprah insiders are telling us one of the reasons behind the timing is that Oprah is angling to get ABC to slide "The Dr. Oz Show" into her time slot. "Oz" becomes a free agent at exactly the same time Oprah will go off the air.
We're also told other talk shows are angling to get the time period, which is primo real estate in TV land.

Oprah:
"Why would anybody stay in Chicago? It's freezing here, and I have a mansion in Montecito that I haven't been able to enjoy."
You gotta be nuts to want to live in Chicago.

Wow What will she do after she retires? I've never seen all of her shows I wasn't that big of a fan. I've seen more shows of Dr. Phil than of Oprah.

Why can't she leave now, not everyone is enamored with Oprah and think that she walka on water, I'm glad to see her go, her ego is bigger than she is, if that's possible

FORGET OPRAH.....JUST DONT LET HER STEP ON YOUR FOOT...OR EAT YOUR KIDS......Speaking of eating Kids, HAS ANYBODY BOTHERED TO TELL JANET THAT THE ONLY REASON SHE IS THE OPENING ACT ON THE AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS SHOW IS BECAUSE SHE IS....AGAIN.....RIDING ON THE SHIRT TAIL OF HER DECEASED BROTHER??????? It was a lie and a disgrace for Janet to say the Family gave a damn about Mr. Jackson. Michael Jackson was a forsaken cash cow who's drug addictions were enabled by Family so they could stay on his payrollllll. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OPRAH AND JANET...what the heck....two for one........

Who the hell is Dr. Oz? Oh well, doesn't matter. If he/she is in anyway affliated with that fat b!tch Orca, I probably wouldn't be interested in watching anyway.
