ABC is airing a Barbara Walters primetime special about Oprah Winfrey, leading in to her special about the ten most fascinating people of 2010, on November 9, 2010. "A Barbara Walters Special: Oprah, the Next Chapter" will air 9:00-10:00 p.m., ET, according to a December 1, 2010 press release from ABC.
Oprah Winfrey is closing the door on her successful, long running talk show, after the 25th anniversary year. While still at the top of her fame, the talk show queen is taking on a new challenge by starting her own network, named OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network.
Oprah sits down with Barbara Walters to speak candidly about this momentous time in her life. The hour-long special will explore the past 25 years of both Oprah's personal and professional life, and will also examine her new network, OWN - just weeks before its January debut - with an exclusive preview of some of its programs.
Ms. Walters, who has interviewed Oprah at key points in her life and career, spends time with Oprah in Chicago at both her home and at Harpo Studios. Oprah opens up about her relationships with Stedman Graham and Gayle King, candidly explaining their roles in her life. The hour will also include a look at the most memorable moments from "The Oprah Winfrey Show." The two women have known each other since the earliest days of Oprah's career, so this should be an interesting interview.
