Feel Good Story: OWN Cancels “The Rosie Show”

Hopefully, the end of the entire OWN network will soon follow.
(LA Times) — Things ain’t so rosy for Rosie O’Donnell: OWN has cancelled her daily talk show.
“The Rosie Show” will tape its final show on Tuesday, according to the network. The final episode will air on Friday, March 30.

The gabfest, which brought in minuscule ratings, debuted on OWN in October 2011 and was on the air for five months. It had occupied the same space where Winfrey’s long-running daytime show was shot in Chicago’s Harpo Studios. After millions were spent to renovate the space, the show underwent a format change, initiated by O’Donnell, in January that downscaled the show, ridding it of the studio audience and band.
