Oprah is announcing today that her twenty-fifth season will be her last. That's right. Oprah will no longer be coming into our houses every afternoon. What will we do?

Who's going to tell us which books to read or which movies to care about (or who to vote in for president)?  Say it ain't so, Oprah!

Her final show will be on September 9, 2011. It's far away now, but it will come quickly. We're sure that will also be the highest rated television hour of all time!

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
