Just like Disney and NBC before her, Oprah is opening up her own store for Oprah-themed merchandise. It's going to be in Chicago, naturally, adjacent to Harpo Studios where she currently films her show.The store is supposed to draw the Oprah audiences inside after they view a taping, but it will inevitably become a draw for just about anyone as Oprah is both the Queen of the World and the High Empress of Chicago.
Items available in the store will be pretty much the same stuff you can find in the Oprah Boutique on her website, such as the Oprah iPod cover, African crafts, clothing, DVDs, and the baby gear. It would actually be neat if the store would also feature some of her "favorite things" that she lists in each edition of her magazine.

At this point, I think I've become numb to the deluge of reality programing that still continues to hammer us. I liken it to being repeatedly shot at pointblank range. Eventually, it doesn't matter how many bullets have entered your body, because you've pretty much just accepted they're not going to stop and there's nothing you can do to stop it, anyway. Still, Unwrapping Macy's is allegedly different than other reality shows because it's the first one to make a corporate retailer the centerpiece of the show. The series, which kicks off on September 30 on the WE network for an initial eight-episode run, will offer a look into what it's like to work at the store. You'll see how they choose merchandise, put together their catalog, and force homeless people at knife point to inflate the Underdog balloon every Thanksgiving. My god, that sounds absolutely riveting.
