Oprah's The Wizard of (Dr.) Oz
More proof that everything Oprah Winfrey touches turns to gold -- her main man (no, not Stedman), Dr. Oz, is getting his own gig! According to Broadcasting and Cable, Op's Harpo Productions is in the process of developing a talk show for Dr. O, set to lunch in the Fall of 2009.
The doc, who is constantly on Oprah's show, is no slouch. He currently serves as the vice chair and professor of surgery at Columbia University and director of the Cardiovascular Institute at New York Presbyterian Hospital, and he co-wrote the best-selling self-help books, You: An Owner's Manual, You: On a Diet and You: Staying Strong.
Oprah loves to help the people she loves get something of their own. She currently backs Dr. Phil, Rachael Ray's chatfest, and is working with Kirstie Alley on a talk show. Dr. Oz will fit right in -- he's obviously smart, but he's sorta cute and funny, too.
I'd totally watch -- you?
