Are you an Oprah fan?
Are you excited about her final shows?
I "wanted" to be an Oprah fan, but as many times as I tried, I just couldn't get into her. I mean I love her favourite things episodes, but other than that and the odd celebrity here and there I was never a faithful watcher. I know people her watch her religiously and really take her advice and stuff. I'll probably watch a few of the last shows, but I won't really miss her.
I used to be, but there was 1 time I watch the after show, or maybe it was her view back stage or something, and seen her yelling at some of her staff. I felt like she was really really mean to them, and was so demanding. After that my view of her changed. I guess it just showed her real personality? The only time I will watch it is if its something that really catches my eye, like the story of that boy that was locked in a closet. It was in my home state so I wanted to see it. That was the last time I watched it though so I watch is maybe once a month on average. My go to show's daily are Regis and Kelly and The View but I dvr them so I can watch them if I miss it. I definitely wont miss Oprah when she's gone. I also do not like her OWN channel. I miss the old discovery health.

Definitely not an Oprah fan... never have been. The only time I've been home during the day to watch daytime TV was when I was on maternity leave & I just prefer things like TLC or DIY to talk shows.
I DVR it, but I don't watch every episode! I am more into the "Dr. Phil Family" (It's the SAME one from 10 years ago, they are a trainwreck---it's so sad!) lol
Although I did watch the James Frey interview for the past 2 days on Oprah because I read the book (A Million Little Pieces) before it was out that it was all a lie! I also am a sucker for her "Favorite Things" episodes when people get all the free stuff.
I also like the random controversial interviews (I read she was going to have Maria Shriver for the finale episode, I would like to see that)
I miss Discovery Health too I'm never home in time to watch Oprah, but I hate the interview episodes. I like when they do makeovers of some sort. During the summer when I'm home, the only TV I will ever watch (which will probably change this summer because of Em) is HGTV.
She's ok IMO. The way she treated her staff was pretty bad, but a lot of celebs treat staff sometimes like that. I only watch certain shows of hers. I do love her story of coming from nothing to now being this media mogul.
I used to watch her about 10 years ago and I would bawl at every other episode LOL. Haven't seen it since, I actually hardly watch any tv at all anymore.
