Piers Morgan is a famous British journalist and previous editor of the broadsheets like News Of The World and Daily Mirror. He was a rather irritable but powerful adjudicator on 'America’s Got Talent'.

‘Piers Morgan Tonight’ captured the timeslot on Monday vacated by CNN’s illustrious ‘Larry King Live’, a chat program, whose respected host, Larry King, retired recently. Morgan’s primary guest was the powerhouse of American daytime TV, Oprah Winfrey, with whom Morgan was, at different times, amiable, ineffective, well-read, and sycophantic. Morgan piled never-ending commendation on her, referring to her as perfect for motherhood and a magnificent counselor. There were bouts of laughter in him on hearing Oprah’s jocularity, which sometimes seemed oleaginous.

It is pretty unambiguous that Oprah was in Piers Morgan Tonight to advertise OWN, her TV network. Oprah offset his admiration for her with her own for him, repetitively voicing that Morgan was good on him putting forth somewhat serious queries that were not intended to permit her to endorse OWN. Subsequent to the culmination of Piers Morgan Tonight’s premiere on Monday, the noteworthy host queried Oprah about his hosting, to which she remarked that he had stunned her in a pleasant way.

Morgan is recognized for presenting difficult queries, notwithstanding which he was unexpectedly mushy with Oprah. He couldn’t grill her toughly on her more moody rejoinders. Nevertheless, his technique, reminiscent of the legendary Barbara Walters, succeeded somewhat as Oprah, known to not bow before pressure, was motivated to converse straightforwardly about her life’s task of self-realization, her despondency during her pregnancy and when her toddler perished, her eccentric association with Stedman Graham, her loving disasters, etc. On being queried about her trademark, she mentioned that it was love.

Instead of presenting himself to the CNN’s spectators with fists tightened, Morgan elected to exhibit gentlemanliness, some openness and lightheartedness too. Knowing that he and Oprah were vying to introduce Michael Vick as a guest, he gambled her 100 pounds on who would attain Vick first, which Oprah confidently heightened to 200.
