Who would think giving a recovering addict two million dollars is a good idea? Oprah thought Lindsay would bring high ratings to her channel and it backfired. Lindsay needs help and she is a total flake. I am not a Lindsay fangirl at all but she was taken advantage of in this situation.
shareOprah gambled and lost the moment she thought the day to day life of Lindsay made for 'interesting' television. Oprah was fishing for ratings on her DOA network and this show brought NOTHING.
Oh yeah, and didnt New Jack City teach us 'Never gamble on a junkie'?
'When there's no more room in Hollywood, remakes shall walk the Earth.'
I'm actually really glad that it didn't do anything good for Oprah's channel. When Oprah was talking about how she felt for Lindsay in the first episode she said something about identifying with her because she used to have money? wth? Oprah is just out of touch and probably did more harm than good for Lindsay.
Maybe there will be someone out there with no personal agenda of their own who can reach Lindsay and help her as a PERSON, not a potential cash cow.
I agree! Well said!
