Rosie on Oprah

16 years ago

Wondering if anyone else got to watch it? We had a bit of a storm day today so I was off and got to watch it. I have always liked and enjoyed Rosie very much and was pleased to see she is doing well. Great interview, hope we can see more of her again.

Too late for me. It was on at 4. It's 5:06 here. Some storm, huh? I had to go out to get onion for tonight's dinner. It's been blowing and rainy all day.

Who is Rosie? Sorry to be dense, but I've been out of touch with the real world for about 40 years now!

I was somewhat torn between Dr. Phil and Rachael Ray. I'm much more familiar with Phil (so to speak), and used to enjoy his showÂalthough I found Robin irritating. But his show has gotten so sleazy! The couple of times I've seen Rachael Ray I've been puzzled at her popularity. Her food is way too unhealthy to appeal to me, although I can understand most of America liking it. But that voice! She seems like a nice person, but that never made someone a celebrity. So I voted for (against?) Dr. Phil. I like Nate a lot. I like Dr. Oz, perhaps to a lesser degree, but agree with the writer about the scrubs. What's with that? Suze Orman can be a bit much, but I wasn't aware that she had any connection to Oprah. I like Jean Chatzky, but thought she became popular on the Today Show. Gayle can be funny. I have Rosie's cookbook because my mother gave it to me as a gift. I can't stand Marianne Williamson. I'm familiar with some of the other names, but not the people themselves. Some, like Peter Walsh and Stacy London, I'd never heard of.

Guess I don't understand the hostility toward her. To my knowledge, she hasn't been in the "rags" She certainly paid her dues with the "good old boys" just to do her chosen vocation as a news/tv personality in the early years. Her current show, The View, has been on for 10-11 yrs, so she muct be doing something right, there. So she writes a book about her past, at least she has one. Not like some of the so-called starlettes who write their biography when they are still in their 20 or 30's. JMO Dottie

Oprah has given away a lot of money and done many things for others. I will remember setting my VCR for 4 pm as long as I live. She started out like Jerry Springer with lesbian nuns on (really.) The kind of stuff that is none of our business and I don't believe nuns would come forward and wish they wouldn't. But it got attention which she needed to compete with Phil Donahue. Then she had a revelation and cleaned up her act. She is a wonderful actress. A natural in great movies that tell real stories. Rosie is not a nice person in my opinion though she had that reputation for a while when she had her own show. Queen of nice. We all have seen her other side and I remember when she left The View she had a blog online and she looked skaggy and ranted everyday to people who agreed with her. Maybe she was off her medication but I doubt I will ever watch her again. She has never revealed why she acted so badly and I don't care. Oprah has a lot of thinking to do. I don't know what shows she could do that would appeal to me. I guess I have seen it all at this age. And with 8 commercials at a time (I thought that was illegal) then I fold. With all of the repeats and commercials it sounds like she is stalling and building money to finance her show in the future. Everybody is replaceable and I will probably let her go and watch the history shows as those are teaching me something.

Rosie is Rosie O'Donnell. I like her too, Taigen. I never did think she was a good fit on The View, though. I wish her all good things. It was great to see how big the kids have gotten. I think Blake is the cutest little thing!!

Dang, I fell asleep and woke up just as the show was ending. I'm wondering what did she have to day about the View? I like her too, Dottie

Ever since Rosie said she thought America was behind the whole 911 incident I thought she was nuts and can't stand to even look at her.

I really enjoyed Oprah and Rosie today. I thought it was a great show. I now want to buy her book. Rosie made total sense to me as a mother, and as a women who had to grow up tough. I totally get her.

I always liked Rosie, but over the years she increasingly went off the deep end. I think deep down she's a wonderful caring person but I don't agree with her political views. She's a very troubled person....I think she recognizes that and it seems like she's getting her act together. This new love in her life seems to be good for her. I hope so. Her crazy views about 911 certainly put me off, but that's just one part of her. I thought it was a wonderful interview. I don't agree with her interpretation of the blow up with Elizabeth, (I saw it live) but one tends to color things to favor themselves....human nature.
