How Oprah killed my joy

In case you haven't heard, Oprah is creating herself a cable network called OWN. This is tragic for one very important reason. OWN is replacing the source of my cable joy, the Discovery Health Channel.

Where am I going to go to see 400-pound tumors removed from people's legs? Where will I see people who have lost 300 pounds get a bunch of hangy skin taken off? Where will I watch ER doctors save the life of someone impaled by a metal pole in a freak interstate accident? And, where will I find Dr. G Medical Examiner?

When OWN goes on the air in 2009, it will be a dark day. A dark day indeed.

  1. Why do "Oprah" and "400-pound tumor" always show up in the same breath?

    I wonder if she'll introduce the network herself by speaking about her "Crash" moment while shopping for ultra-luxury goods on the Champs Elysees.
