This Week In Terrifying Hybrids 1. Interview Magazine + TV Cameras + Questions cribbed from a slumber party personality quiz + 2 minutes of Oprah saying "Good job!" = The Oprah Winfrey Oscar Special
Evidently, in order for a TV show to be named "The Oprah Winfrey [fill-in-the-blank]" it only needs to contain about 5 minutes of Oprah footage, which means we are only mere months away from "The Oprah Winfrey PGA Tournament Special" (in which famous golfers interview each other for an hour before the camera pans to a framed photo of Oprah and holds there for a minute), and "The Oprah Winfrey NASCAR Round-up" (in which NASCAR drivers have a round-table discussion about tires and stuff while a TV in the background is tuned in to an old episode of
Oprah).
Still, despite its glaring lack of Oprah, The Oprah Winfrey Oscar Special was far more enlightening than the usual fluffy fare that clogs the airwaves in the days before the Oscars. Why? Because it wasn't TV reporters drooling all over Oscar nominees and winners, but rather Oscar nominees and winners drooling all over each other.
