Oprah Winfrey's final show airing this Wednesday will be the biggest farewell that television has seen in nearly 20 years. The last time anyone leaving a TV show got this much attention was when Johnny Carson left 'The Tonight Show' in 1992. Ending 'Oprah' after 25 landmark years, the daytime queen is expected to break her own ratings records.It's basically a three-day goodbye. On Monday and Tuesday the show will come to you from an arena. Oprah had nothing to do with these two shows but rather let her staff produced front-to-back, inviting some of their boss's favorite celebs to perform and say goodbye. These two shows were taped last week in Chicago from the United Center.However, we know very little about the actual ending, which airs Wednesday. The woman who hates to be surprised is going to do just that to her legion of fans."Oprah wanted to keep the final show a mystery," an insider tells me. "We know almost nothing about what is going to happen. As recently as last week Oprah still hadn't decided if the show would be live or taped which seems to indicate that a huge celebrity send off is unlikely as the stars would have needed to schedule a trip to Chicago."Of course, I'm sure that if come tomorrow a celeb gets "the call," they won't hesitate to drop everything and travel thousands of miles to be there.One thing is certain: the whole World will be watching no matter how Oprah decides to say bye-bye. Advertisers are already clamoring to pay $1 million dollars for a 30-second spot on the broadcast. Will you be watching? Right, dumb question ... OF COURSE you'll be watching.
CRAP!!! The last show is on Wed? My husband is off work that day so I'll miss it (((WHAT IF I'VE WAITED ALL THIS TIME AND MISS MICHAEL? afraid/ afraid/ afraid/
Just heard a bit of Suze Orman on the Joy Behar show tonight talking about Oprah's finale. Stedman was discussed and they made it sound like he could be the surprise. I think from what I saw on Oprah today, it will continue to bore me. The surprise guests are no surprise at all and not too exciting so will it just continue that way??...yawn. I don't think Oprah's people would want to take the spotlight from her and have someone as spectacular as MJ...he will steal the show and they would all be fired !!!
I watched the first of her finale shows and John Legend at the Believe school!! come on how many clues to we need! Climbing oak trees ...am I the only one seeing these things...read between the lines...even if Michael dosen't show up on Oprah..he is most definately behind it some how....or someone is playing a really sick joke on Believers!! MJ is in the house!!!!!!! mj_bad/ lolol/ party/
