Muted Screams: Oprah Winfrey’s annual “Favourite Things” episode airs this Wednesday, and though struggling people could really use some big-ticket items in the midst of our recession, the cruel daytime doyenne is going to reward her audience members with stuff they probably could have gotten already. “They’re some of Oprah’s favourite things, but this time there’s a twist…they cost next to nothing!” said an Oprah rep in a statement. “You’ll meet a mum who shows us how to create a one-of-a-kind treasure that comes straight from the heart. Then, one family talks about their very own tradition that doesn’t cost a cent.” What, “love” or some shit? What a rip-off! At least give ‘em some sweater-capes and calypso music, O! [Us]
