Oprah couldn't be a Millionaire Matchmaker?

What ever happened to letting fate handle things? Ok, fine. I guess Oprah Winfrey's sidekick and best friend, Gayle King has a hard time (probably no time) to just go out and pass her number around. So she wants to play the new dating game? Then play it fair, Gayle! While most people are now going to match.com or eharmony.com, a lot of rich people ask Patti Stanger to be "in the club."

But Gayle has to go to a Guinness Book of World Records holder (for match making) Orly Hadida. "She wants to find love, who cares how she gets it," you say. But the apparent issue now is, Miss Orly set Gayle up, but Gayle never held up her of the compensation deal. Not a big deal? It's $500,000 big. Orly the Matchmaker said she'd be totally cool with just guess-starring on Oprah...oh that's no big deal. Oprah doesn't have her guests booked months, maybe years, in advance or anything...It's so weird how they couldn't just through her on TV!

Either way, apparently nothing was set in writing. Now Gayle is man-less and getting sued. But at least she has one of the most powerful women on her side--I wouldn't be too worried.

3...2...1 and We're On!

Welcome to Partner in Primetime! As many of you may have noticed, almost every successful talk show host has some form of "partner in crime" that supports the show--a sidekick of sort. This blog will be an exploration to find out more about these TV companions. I will sometimes focus on certain partners--giving a biography-style report. While other weeks, I will be giving a historical lesson on monumental sidekicks.

Either way, it's a journey I am beginning with you, my readers. We are going to explore the second, lesser-known, half of these TV personalities, and we are going to do it together. The red light is officially on, which means we have started rolling.

To get started. Check out this video with Conan O'Brien and his former sidekick Andy Richter (and of course we will hear about Andy some more later).
