If not, big mistake. I mean, I didn’t watch it either, but at least we’re all here together right now, right?
Yesterday was Oprah’s annual Favorite Things episode – you know, the one where she gives away tons of stuff to everybody in the audience – and since this is Oprah’s last season, it was a pretty big deal. Like, it was “paramedics are on standby because somebody could have an aneurysm” big deal.
The audience members got stuff like a diamond watch, a 3D TV, some cool shoes, a sweater, and a Caribbean cruise. And all that’s great, it really is, but the absolute best part of this whole thing is watching people absolutely flip their shit for a straight hour. In the video above, grown ass men fall to their knees in tears. This one woman almost rips her hair out. These people make Justin Bieber fans look tranquil, and I love it.
Here’s another video, and it’s not embeddable, but you can watch audience reactions throughout the show, including Oprah’s little smug smirk and nod when they reveal the cruise. I guess the holidays are really upon us.
