According to The New York Times, when the Oprah Winfrey Network cable channel debuts in January 2011, viewers can expect a double dose of Orpah Winfrey herself. At that time she will still be hosting her syndicated talk show, The Oprah Winfrey show, and she will also be appearing on OWN in 'Behind the Scenes: Oprah's 25th Season,' which will document the behind the scenes life of her talk show. Due to contract details, Oprah was prohibited from appearing on OWN in a manner similar to her syndicated talk show until it goes off the air in the previously announced date of September 9, 2011, so this is OWN's solution to that problem.

In the regular 'My New York' series, the New York Post features actress and activist Marlo Thomas who gives readers a glimpse into her favorite pastimes and haunts in New York City.
