And tonight's episode recounts that memorable moment when Oprah Winfrey wheeled out a wagon full of fat in a 1980s episode of her talk show to signify how much weight she had lost (not the last time that Winfrey would tackle the subject).
Airing Sunday, September 29 at 9pm Eastern Time on CNN, the hourlong episode will delve into the iconic TV event as well as the larger impact of the "Daytime Diet Wars" with "never-before-heard details from those who were there" as well as commentary from celebrities, TV insiders, politicians, journalists, comedians, and culture critics.
