(NECN/ABC) - After 25 years of Hosting "The Oprah Winfrey Show," Oprah will say goodbye.
She became a national name in 1986, reshaping the talk show format. In the process, she became one of the most wealthy and powerful entertainers in the world. She did so, partly, by sharing some of her most intimate struggles with millions of viewers.
Her show was rated number one for 23 consecutive seasons.
Oprah has been busy with plans to launch her own cable network -- The Oprah Winfrey Network -- a joint venture with Discovery Networks. Whether she'll have her own show is not yet known.
