it all depends on what station, during what shows at what time and how many times you pay for your commercial to be aired.

The only thing I'm finding on the oprah website is a link that says:\n\n"Current Reservation Availability\nThere are no reservations available at this time. Please check back for information regarding upcoming reservations for the fall.\n\nE-mail Availability\nE-mail: Last-minute available reservations "\n\nMaybe that's why the phone number is always busy.

In America, the most effective person to complain to is that show's sponsors.  Who ever has commercials running during the program, call them or send email through their web site complaining about the program and how shocked you are that such a fine product could be associated with such filth.  Tell them that you are going to tell everyone at your place of worship, work, etc. to stop buying the products unless they pull sponsorship of that program.  \n\nVery often if the sponsor gets enough complaints they will pull funding which might mean the show goes off the air or has to adjust to keep the sponsors happy.  You could also try contacting the network on line - just search Yahoo for the network call letters or name.\n\nPeace!

It's always been on that late becuase it's not very lucrative for the tv stations.\n\nTape it and watch it when you're able.

In America, if a television show goes on and doesn't have enough viewers or positive ratings, the show will either get pulled at the end of the season, or immediately, depending on how poorly the show is performing.\n\nIf a show was popular at one point and is now slumping, the show is usually moved to a time-slot "off prime-time" (the period of time when most people are likely to watch TV, somewhere around 7-11PM), and will eventually be dropped as well.

I've noticed it. That's why I've stopped watching the show. I think it's really rude and she acts like she's above others. If you notice on other talk shows, they only cut the guest off to go to a break. Martha does it all the time.

Because she kisses ass some times. She can be quite phony also. Nothing like the 1980's Oprah.

I had been out of town for a couple of weeks and was shocked to hear the guests one after another being carted away.  I heard a quick blip one morning on the way to work where Bob said, "In case you didn't know, Amy's contract came up for renewal and the company decided not to renew it."  Interesting...I'm with y'all.  That girl was out at least once every two weeks.  Capital Broadcasting probably got fed up with it.

I love Oprah and I would be annoyed to find that she used a diet pill since she harps on eating healthy and exercising.  It may have been a supplement.

During the commercial breaks -- just like you do.

They are usually the final anthemn before the closing finale of the show. In most shows, you can go to the final song, then move to one before (not including reprises).

The reason is that Gervais didn't want the show to just continue on without being funny, kind of like what happened to "Seinfeld". He wanted to be able to end it before it spun out of his hands.

Past seasons are on cable, and local affiliates.  But they don't run the show from Monday later in the week like they did some earlier seasons.

The last two standing were Caridee and Jadea.  If you saw most of the show then you know that Jadea's commercial was really bad. She even warned the judges it would be. When Tyra turned the photo over and called Caridee's name, she told Caridee that maybe all of the praise she had gotten in the last challenges were too much for her, because her comercial was horrible, but she was still in the running.

Oprah is annoying.  She need to quit flaunting her money around.

It means that the company sponsored the show.   They payed lots of money for their commercials to be shown during the show that is on.  This is how TV makes money,,,,,, the commercials.  Thats why there are so many.....
