Oprah Your OWN Show Contest Showdown

July 1, 2010 - PRLog -- Public voting in the Oprah Winfrey Your OWN Show contest ends July 3, and it is already clear who is going to win. Comic Zach Anner, who describes himself as “a wheelchair bound lady magnet” with cerebral palsy ("the sexiest of the palsies"), has racked up an impressive 9,000,000+ votes for his travel show.

Closing in, with 18 votes cast mostly by her own hand, is filmmaker Sondra Lowell, whose video entry helps potential OWN Network viewers Unleash Your Mediocrity Now!

The inventor of the Film Sleepy genre--and auteur of the slow-moving WebcamMurder.com and entirely subliminal Sublime Crime: A Subliminal Mystery--explained how she intends to pull off her win from behind:

“Before the winner is given their own show, several contestants will compete in a reality show. Zach may win first prize, but someone has to be the first person to be thrown off, and that is the position I am seeking.”

The filmmaker and would-be talk show host believes that her upset over 9,503 other contestants will result from her perseverance—and spelling:

“My audition video was turned down three times for undisclosed violations. It was only when I cut off the original last line that Unleash Your Mediocrity Now! was accepted.”

Sondra believes her eye for typos gives her an edge, too, pointing out, “Zach’s entry has about 2000 comments, and mine has one. Written by me. Asking the contest administrators to correct a spelling error I made when I copied my description of Unleash Your Mediocrity Now! from Microsoft Word. That shows the (belated) attention to detail that is so essential in the talk show hosting world.

“I bet I’m also the only contestant to correct one of the many spelling errors on the entry form in one of my answers. Clearly, those errors were a secret test to weed out slackers and Russian spies trying to blend in.”
