There have been rumors that things aren't going as well as Oprah had hoped over at her network OWN and now we are starting to see the evidence. It was announced that Rosie O'Donnell's show has not been picked up for a 2nd season. I have always like Rosie, even during her split screen crazy moments on The View. It is sad that her show which seemed to finally be finding its grove has been stopped. Both O and Rosie have released statements.
“I thank Rosie from the bottom of my heart for joining me on this journey,” said Oprah Winfrey in a statement. “As I have learned in the last 15 months, a new network launch is always a challenge and ratings grow over time as you continue to gather an audience. I’m grateful to Rosie and the dedicated Rosie Show team for giving it their all.”
"I loved working with Oprah in the amazing city of Chicago," O'Donnell said in a statement. "I was welcomed with open arms and will never forget the kindness of all I encountered. It was a great year for me—I wish the show was able to attract more viewers—but it did not. So I am headed back to my home in New York—with gratitude. On we go!"
