Does anyone actually care that Oprah Winfrey has a network devoted to her and her BFFs? Not me! That channel has no use in my house. Also, after what happened that year Rosie O'Donnell was on The View, I could care less about her.

What happened?  Never had much use for The View, but knowing Rosie I'll bet this is a good story.

Her and Elizabeth Hasselback got into a huge argument about the Iraq War.

The whole fight is on youtube.

Same here. When I saw the first couple of words in the thread title, I was hoping the rest of it would be "goes under."

This was bound to happen.  O'Donnell's behavior in recent years has been pretty awful.

Didn't like her (or Oprah for that matter) 20 years ago, don't like them now. Both are egotistical hypocrites.

Geez, people... if you don't like something, don't watch it.  There's no need to demand that Everything You Dislike Must Disappear From the Universe.

I used to like Rosie when she had her first talk show.  She was funny and spontaneous.  Today, she's neither.  So good riddance to her latest attempt at a talk show.

Well, this week was supposed to be a return to normalcy, but that's clearly not allowed.  Since you feel there is no need for this week's FPG to continue, I feel there is no need to continue as an FPG host or a G-R.net member.  Since most people are so desperate to push me out of here, why delay it?  I would have preferred that everybody publicly admitted it rather than string me along for the last two days, but it is what it is.  I am hereby resigning as FPG host and moderator, effective immediately.  whammy007 is the new permanent host.  No R-rated rant or airing of grievances from me.  Just a polite "goodbye for good".

Truthfully when she first came back, back in October, I was excited to see her show. But it kind of became a snoozefest for me quickly. It really wasn't the type of show I thought she would do. I kind of thought she would make it some sort of late night-type show in primetime. I was kind of surprised that she did a format change during the christmas break. Even though I really liked it, I also felt it was a deadly move for her to make.

You forget though, that this is a internet forum, populated by quite a few people, who seem to think that at their every whim, Television will automatically be made perfect to their liking, and if anyone disagrees with their opinion, they can get lost.  :lol:

I watched the premiere episode and thought it was good but not good enough to make it must-see television and tune in everyday. I'm not surprised to see the show canceled, the ratings plunged. The show premiered at around 500,000 but went down to around 150,000 which is television suicide. Lets face it, Rosie had it her peak and while her name carries some weight her good days in show business are over.

Who wants to place bets the Oprah Winfrey Network will soon come to an end?
