Is anyone as upset as I am about Oprah taking over Discovery Health to make her own network? It's not happening until late 2009, but I don't know what I am going to do when it is gone.

I was wondering what was up with that channel! It used to be serious documentary programming but has become DHC Lite. It should be renamed The Multiple Pregnancy Channel.

Aww I love Oprah but she better not take "Dr. G Medical Examiner" off the air or will be highly upset it's my favorite show :)

Now I'm mad. I used to love Discovery Health. It was the only reason I was going to get satellite when I moved.
I never liked Oprah anyway.

What?! I love Oprah and I love DHC, but I don't want it gone.
. It should be renamed The Multiple Pregnancy Channel.
Haha! Very true, I'm sick of all the shows about babies and families with 16 kids. :zzzzz

I used to like Oprah but she has gone just a little overboard lately. I mean what's with the magazine of hers and she puts a different picture of herself on the cover each month.
And I have a son who won't even let you take his picture. And she wants hers all over the world.
She should just buy a few huge carbon arc lights and put her face up in the sky and be done with it.
Glory be to OPRAH the almighty

Oh, I'm bummed now. Thanks for sharing the news. I think I'll go cry.
I love the shows about 16 kids - it's a fantastic form of birth control for me!

Notice that Oprah will have "full editorial control". I'm shocked! Shocked, I tell you!

What the h e double hockey sticks?! Say it's not so! I love Discovery Health and she better not take of Trauma Life in the ER, Code Blue, or Untold Stories of the ER. I think Dr G Medical Examiner had moved to the regular Discovery Channel, or it could be they are showing it on both Discovery and Discovery Health.

I hope some of the shows stay. I have a feeling it is going to be The 24 Hour A Day Dr. Oz show. I think she's in love with him he's on so much. :lol:
