I have mixed feelings about it; and I don't even watch it - just the effect it has on world discourse.
I had really hoped the special guest would be all the weight she's lost - arriving on the set in best blob like fashion and itching for a Steve McQueen level epic fight.
I am very happy that a women was able to grab onto and hold her audience; turning that audience into a media empire. Good for her. Awesome. I just wish that so many of the creatures featured on her shows weren't such wastes of fucking space. Homeopaths. The Secret. Anti-vax harridan Jenny McCarthy, relationship dillweed Dr. Phil, alternative therapy wonk Dr. Oz. People who need a boots and elbows beating - not a platform for their arse-wipery.
So good for Oprah and booing hisses for the loathsome hagfish siphoning their bites of fame from her.
