This time, it's personal. Talk show queen Oprah Winfrey teased viewers this week that she's going to hit them with a major surprise during Monday's episode.

"I thought I'd seen it all. But this, my friends, is the miracle of all miracles," Winfrey said in a promotional bit for the program.

Oprah Winfrey may be the Queen of Daytime Talk Shows (and many other media, for that matter), but on the Internet, the crowd reigns supreme.
