Yes, there is a younger clone with a near identical set.
The advantage of partnering with Discovery Channel creates is that it's worldwide, that it's 7 channels---that gives a range of billions if viewers around the world subscribe/tune in. Right now they get paid 30 cents per 8 channels, of about 90-100 worldwide subscribers.
Now at the peak, Oprah was rocking 12 to 15 (upwards of 40+ when averaged by the week) million viewers a day, to multiply that success over multiple shows/formats is going to take time. She's now arguably getting close to I’m sure one of her considered goals: she had on her show a young Chinese talks how host, Chen Lu Yu, pre 2009 Discovery Channel deal approach.
Yu's single show has a viewership of 200 million a week in China, while Oprah was doing 40 million a week including America and international markets.
I literally saw Oprah, Skyping with Yu, get an ambition erection. It is no coincidence that OWN in her and Stedman's minds since 1992 got a boost at seeing this young woman. Gary Zaslav, President of Discovery approached her a couple of years later. Synchronization. Serendipity. Law of Attraction.
Oprah's CEO of OWN until 2025, to really, really, really expand. There are broadcasts of OWN throughout Europe, Canada, South America, India already.
Yu woke up a Mississippian dragon.
Chen?
You in danger, girl.
