During her nineteenth season premiere (fall 2004), Oprah surprised her entire audience by giving them each a Pontiac G6. It was named as one of the greatest television moments in history by TV Guide. Although Oprah may be given credit for giving the cars away, they were donated to her by Pontiac as a publicity stunt. In 2005, Tina Turner guest starred, allowing Desperate Housewives star Felicity Huffman to fulfill her Wildest Dream of singing backup to Turner. Another included a man named David Caruso who lost 300 pounds after weighing 525 pounds. He came on the show in 2003 and told Oprah that one of his wishes was to sit in a Porsche.

Not surprisingly, demand for Oprah tickets far exceeds supply, especially after the Pontiac car giveaway where GM gave away 276 Pontiac G-6 sport sedans to Oprah's audience - valued at 7 million dollars. Although It was a great short-term win -win for both parties, it may make the Oprah Show seem like a charity show, many people see it as a sign of the end of the show and she is giving back to her fans.

Did you watch Oprah on Tuesday to check out the official launching of her own YouTube channel? Oprah talked about the Flip Ultra Video Cam and how she's been using the Flip to capture and share behind-the-scenes footage of celebrities and other guests that she'll feature on the channel, in addition to videos she made of herself backstage. Oprah is already a huge fan of the pocket-sized Flip which is easy to use and allows you to directly upload video content to YouTube and other sites. It's no wonder why she gave her entire studio audience one to take home! The pink 60 minute Flip model shown below costs $150 from Amazon.

Oprah Winfrey on Tuesday listed her "Favorite Things," one of her daytime talker's most popular annual features because audience members get one of everything that makes the cut. (This year's installment was taped in Macon, Georgia, which apparently has a disproportionate viewership of Oprah.) The swag, as detailed below, tallies approximately $7,247.33 a person. read more
