Oprah takes audience to Australia

  Oprah told her studio audience this morning that she's taking the entire lot of 'em to Australia. This is a wonderful thing of course - unless she is giving them only a one-way ticket.

  As you are doubtless aware, this is the season premire today - it airs at 4 - and so it now appears that O intends to go out with a bangeroo. Per Broadcasting & Cable, which witnessed the largess of the hostess with the mostest, she said she  "treasures the emails and letters you have sent to me. You've grown up with me. You have raised your children with me and you've all have been on this wild ride every step of the way. And for that I have deep, deep gratitude for you all."

  Meanwhile, I will officially get excited only when she sends the bloody lot of her entire TV audience to Australia.

 Oh, yeah, almost forgot JohnTravolta is flying 'em- the studio audience, that is.
