oprah winfrey is perhaps one of the most uninteresting talk shows in the history of the human race. there are a lot of really bad shows out there, and oprah winfrey ranks number 1 on that list. life is unfair, good shows get cancelled and bad shows keep going. and oprah is of those bad shows. oprah is just so uninteresting, there's nothing with her that's so cool. it's all trash. it goes on and on. why do the networks cancel good shows and keep the bad ones on. it's so illogical. but i guess that's a fact of life, there's the good and there's the bad even if it's as bad as oprah.

Oprah is one of the worlds most influential people and good for her. She has done so much good work in her life for the less fortunate people. Oprah had a difficult childhood but she overcame that and now she helps so many people that went through similar things to her. She uses her money for good but the only thing i don't like about her is she always makes dieting such a big issue. A young teenage girl sitting at home doesn't want to hear about a miracle diet. Anyway good work Oprah and i have to say you are an inspiration to many!!

I have watched Oprah for many years. I feel that as I get older i gain an appreciation for what Oprah does. Many people critize her for her beliefs, her "power", her charitable donations but I think that what she does to help everyone is amazing. Watching her specials have always moved me. Christmas Kindness made me want to be a better human being, Oprah's leadership camp made me want to donate. She has opened up something within me that makes me want to be a better person. Many celebrities take their money and power and use it to better themselves but i believe Oprah uses it to better those people around her. When watching the children of parents with Aids light up over a pair of shoes, or the girls light up over new books and a bed to sleep on, it just shows you how one person can change the world. You can hate her for whatever reasons but you can not deny that she has helped the people in South Africa in ways never imaginable without her.

She can speak very well. I love her talk shows. The other show was Tyra Banks show but it is not as good as Oprah's show. I happen to come across this fabulous show when I was changing channels one day when I was bored. She knows how to talk to people and she never touches on sensitive issues. She has taken celebrities up for them to speak and entertains us with only talking and more talking. It is amazing at how she talks but you never get sick of it because it isn't boring. I guess the reason behind that is that she does not touch really on the dry stuff. She touches on big issues in which people are facing problems with.

Oprah Winfrey is the host of one of the best talkshows ever. She as a person is very kind hearted and generous, her looks needs no description as it is good as it can possibly be. She is one of the best speakers ever, can outclass the presidents with the kind of confidence she has and the weight she puts in her argument. She is a very intelligent person and smart too. The proof of her generosity is her charity organization (Angel Network), and its the faith people have in her that they donate millions of $s. She is very well-known and popular not only in the US but worlwide and the proof of it is the fact,in the year 2006 in Forbes,she is rated as #3 in the top celebrities list. A great human being is what Oprah Winfrey is. She is a living legend and we look forward to more of her. Long-live Oprah Winfrey.

Can't believe so many fans think she's talented, but then again Oprah fans are on another world different from regular tv fans. Oprah Winfrey is not really a good example for black people or a woman in general. She's full of herself, often does things just to get noticed (and not really for the pure of heart), other times she's just downright deceitful and manipulative. For example, last week, she had a guest her name was Jessica something who killed her baby. That wasn't the appaling part, the appaling part was the way she was playing herself as judge, jury and executioner. She was passing all sorts of judgement on this girl who was clearly sorry, yet she was berating her in all ways possible. Then as you looked at the show, you realize Oprah removed the audience, probably so nobody would boo her ugly butt and see what kind of a ratings ,tabloid grabbing piece of trash she really is.
That kinda exemplifies her right there. She does charity , blah, blah, but don't be fooled, she also has this selfish, capitalistic personality that she keeps well hidden but unlike Dr. Phil can't keep it as well hidden. She's not even as talented as Phil to begin with.

Oh come on! You know she just loooovvvesss herself. She's obnoxious. Whenever someone comes out she goes like: Tooommmm CRUISE!!!!!!!! and with the favouritye things she is jsut flattering herself. "You get a car you get a car YOUR'E ALL GETTING A CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!" gimme a break she didn't even pay for them it was by Toyota. But I love her show, the magazines and the book club. That's why i gave her that grade. What she looses in vainness she definitly gains with her enorumous empire. I watch the show often. I thumb threw the mag whenever I have the time and I definitly read the book club. In close there's no lying she loves herself and will let you know how great she is but her empire is full of wonderful things.

I was in awe when I found out that Oprah was sending her production crew and their families to Maui for a one week all expense paid vacation. She chartered 5 planes and had catered food on board. She paid for all the rooms and meals and transportation. She also paid for all of the activities that they wanted to partake in. This is a once in a lifetime trip for many of her employees, how many bosses do you know of that went to such extremes to show their employees how much they are appreciated? The best part of this whole trip, is that Oprah was there with her employees for the entire week. She not only gave of her money, but she gave these people the most important thing of all, she gave them her time. What a truly marvelous woman.

I don't really like her show much, but this is a review of Oprah herself and I have a massive amout of respect for her!
Its no surprise that this woman is one of the most popular people in the US. She does so much for people in need - not only in her own country but also abroad.
The major problem I have with this show is whem she has celebrities on it. I know she has a nicey nice image she as to keep up, but she could put a little more pressure on who shes interviewing. Instead of saying to Jennifer Anniston "I love your shoes girlfriend" you could talk about her struggling marriage!
But when you think about what shes been through to get to where she is you have to respect that!
