Oprah is ALWAYS GIVES GAYLE a job. Really...she used to do interviews for Oprah's show. Then she had her own failed talk show (produced by HARPO). Oprah made her the editor of "O" magazine. And also produced a radio talk show. Then, when Oprah started up her own television network -- Gayle, of course, got another talk show on the OWN network.
That's all fine with me. Gayle is a wonderful friend -- Oprah trusts her -- she's funny and articulate and Oprah enjoys having her around. And people should take care of their friends.
"Oprah giving a job to Gayle" seemed like a nice situation for everybody...and who are we kidding? It's been going on for most of Gayle's adult life...
So it was puzzling when Gayle quit her OWN show -- to accept the CBS offer to be one of the anchors for their REWORKED CBS morning show.
Really, Gayle??
WHAT ARE YOU THINKING???
OH MY GOD...CBS?? This can't be good...I fear for you, babe...
Of course -- I am a devoted "TODAY" show fan. I like the pace of the show...Matt and Al...I'm missing Meredith...but then again, I got over the Katie Couric thing....
I wanted to watch Gayle. So did my friend Valerie. We were curious. The CBS morning show does terrible in the ratings....now they have Gayle King, Charlie Rose and a third nameless brunette...
After a couple of days of making it our "B" show -- Val said it best...
"When I switch from the TODAY show over to the CBS show -- it's like going from color to black and white..."
Val is soooo right...(a girl can never hear that too much!)
But -- here's the big question. When the CBS morning show is canceled -- is Oprah going to give Gayle yet another job??
I'm just sayin'....
