The word on the street is that Oprah Winfrey and her network OWN are doing much better these days, after a difficult start. Now, she’s ready to give back the way she does best – Oprah’s Favorite Things.
For years, Oprah Winfrey wowed viewers every year with her “Favorite Things” show, as she handed out one fabulous prize after another to lucky audience members.
She went out with a bang in 2010, when, in a two-part episode, she gave away items that included a hot new thing called an iPad, Ugg sequined boots and a 2012 VW beetle.
Now, Oprah has announced she has revived the franchise and will air Oprah’s Favorite Things: 2012 on Nov. 18 as a two-hour special from 8 to 10 p.m. ET on OWN.
As always, she will unveil her must-haves for the holiday season and that includes a “top-secret giveaway” for an unsuspecting group of military spouses from each branch of the Armed Forces.
With help from her BFF and O Magazine’s editor-at-large, Gayle King, and creative director Adam Glassman, Oprah enlisted designers Michael Kors and Tory Burch and celebrity chef Curtis Stone to help find the hottest, newest, tastiest items of the year for the magazine’s O List (on stands Nov. 6).
During the two-hour event, viewers for the first time in the history of “Favorite Things,” will also have the opportunity to “Watch and Win” select items featured within segments of the show. By texting the correct key word to a short code at designated points throughout the premiere airing, viewers will be entered into a drawing to win. Additional details on how to enter will be available starting Nov. 1.
