Okay, wow, I just watched that clip and his voice was breaking like he was about to boo-hoo. He went from hotshot doc to nine year old in like 5 seconds flat. Dad in the audience is not havin' it. Intense.

I'd give an arm and a leg to hear "Go Ricki! Go Ricki! Go Ricki!" again! I kinda detest the fact that her return hinges so heavily on what Katie Couric wants to do. Ricki > Katie.

I get that Ricki's older and a mom now, but I hope she wouldn't take her show to such a mature/wise/informational place that she won't have room for some real juiciness. The beauty of her show was that she had these outrageous topics/guests and treated them with common human dignity. I'm all for her coming back!

I've never been much of a talk show person. At least not since Mike Douglas went off the air. I used to rush home from school to watch his show (it aired at 4pm in my hometown).

I hated Donahue. He always came across as an arrogant ass to me. But I did enjoy watching Montel Williams.

I found this old episode of Oprah. It's basically Ice-T vs. Tipper Gore from 1990, and it's EVERYTHING I want in a talk show. Tempers flare, people speak from the heart, all of the feelings are real. And as a result, no one is made out to be right or wrong, everything has a good point to make, and it's just...intelligent conversation to me. If I ever had the opportunity to be a talk show host, this is basically what I'd want to work with.
