This month Oprah Winfrey launched her cable network, the Oprah Winfrey Network.  OWN's lineup includes programs like "In the Bedroom with Dr. Laura Berman," which delves into relationships issues and "Your OWN Show: Oprah's Search for the Next TV Star," where contestants vie for the chance to host a show on the new network.

This segment aired on January 11, 2011.
