It was bound to happen sooner or later…. TEN is about to drop Oprah Winfrey from the afternoon schedule.
The US talk-show host has been a long-term staple of the afternoon schedule, but after ending her series TEN reached a point some time ago when it ran out of fresh episodes.
With Winfrey’s topical subjects it was inevitable the network would have to budge sooner or later. Break out the Kleenex, girls.
From Monday September 19 Winfrey will be replaced by The Doctors.
The network also returns audience favourite Judge Judy to her 3pm timeslot and removes replays of The Renovators. Many TV Tonight readers have been calling for the abrupt judge to be reinstated, in addition to relentless calls for Peter Everett to return to Ready Steady Cook.
Mon Sept 18
12:00 pm Dr Phil
1:00 pm The Doctors
2:00 pm Ready Steady Cook
3:00 pm Judge Judy
3:30 pm Two Guys And A Girl
4:00 pm Huey’s Kitchen
4:30 pm The Bold And The Beautiful

At least JJ isn’t on in the mornings – her grating voice is just too much to take on an empty stomach or hangover…
Oprah has had a huge run practically 20 years on Ten that must be some kind o record. I remember i used to watch Oprah when i was young in primary school whenever i missed school it was ok. Since starting high school i watched almost no episodes and when i finished high school i couldnt stand the show because it was the same over and over again. I am not surprised at this decision so it doesnt effect me.
JJ was back on today!!!
*doing summersaults in happiness*
Woo! Judge Judy is back! And all was right in the world.
Bring back Ricki Lake, Donahue, Sally Jesse Raphael or heaven forbid Jerry Springer!!!
I have to agree about the whole Peter Everett thing. Colin Lane looks uncomfortable the entire show, and his presentation style is bland. I must admit I have tuned out since his inception.
Where are the shows from her O Network? Or are they only available tpo “pay” tv?
The Drs is sooooooooooooooo bad
It would be good to see Anderson Cooper’s new daytime talk show in this slot or Katie Couric when she debuts next year.
and the most annoying thing is they never put in the program when JJ is a repeat,
Don’t they Have to do that by law or something ??
No.
Hooray! Judge Judy’s back on TEN.
I’ll miss Oprah (thank goodness for Pay TV where she still reigns as Talkshow Queen).
Another request for Peter Everett to come back to Ready Stead Cook. He made the show camp and that’s what made it work!
It’s not the end of the world once Oprah goes.You still have the Circle or the view or Ellen.
It’s a shame we don’t have a night time weekly chat show like Rove anymore though
who cares what they put on, day time tv is tragic anyways.
I forgot about The Talk. I wouldn’t mind seeing that for when theres no one interesting on The View. I’ve seen Tin Doctors and not really interested in it.
I’d take a repeat of The Renovators over Judge Judy any day. What ever happened to Justine’s cooking show?
instead of the di** heads why not re run a classic australian drama like e street prisoner etc
What about The Talk, surely they have access to that being a CBS show and all, that way it can go up against The View, because after all TEN already have a doctor show!
But are the JJ new episodes ? They throw in repeats all the time lately I have noticed..
The Doctors was tried before and didn’t rate. If the same happens, they can try The Talk, that’s basically a CBS ripoff of The View.
Does that mean we’re going to get new episodes of Dr Phil too? Ten’s been playing repeats of that for the last week and a half.
Fresh episodes? Bullshit, we’ve been dumped with repeats prior to her arrival in Australia and following.
Yes Vanessa, TEN has shifted between fresh and repeats for some time. I don’t think that contradicts what I wrote.
I wouldn’t mind if they repeated Renovators on ONE.
Not really into the Doctors and with Dr Oz on Seven at 2pm that’s a lot of medical shows.
Two Guys And A Girl is an odd choice in that line-up. It would be more suited to be on at 6pm or 7pm on Eleven.
They should swap Phil and doctors. Phil is the more recognisable brand and better show and should get the better slot. Last I checked Ellen was beating Phil, Phil could do well against The View.
