The End of an Era

adminUncategorized%s Comments

The Queen of Chicago made it official this morning- The Oprah Winfrey Show is over.  I’ve got to admit, I had a few teary eyed moments during the finale.  I’ve grown up watching Oprah.  So many conversations between my mom and I were sparked by her daily topics; anticipating her “Favorite Things” was popcorn-making worthy.  Say what you want about her politics but the spotlight Oprah has put on the importance, the necessity of education has changed lives and our country.

Self worth, education, personal responsibility, empowerment, and a lot of hugging- I’m down with anytime television programming is centered on any of those.  Thanks, O for bringing it strong into our living rooms for the past 25 years.  My 9am time slot (and DVR) is going to be a little empty without you.
