CHICAGO (AP) — Brace yourselves, Oprah fans, this is the beginning of the end.

The 25th and final season of “The Oprah Winfrey Show” starts airing Monday.

And Winfrey has already hinted she’s going out in style.

In recently released video of the season’s first episode, the TV talk show host and actor John Travolta dance hand-in-hand through her stage doors to “Love Train” by the O’Jays.

Winfrey has been tightlipped about who would join her on the season premiere. Other celebrity guests and a musical performance have been mentioned.

For cable viewers, there’s more Winfrey to come. She’s set to launch her Oprah Winfrey Network, or OWN, on cable Jan. 1.

The end of “The Oprah Winfrey Show” will be featured on that network with “Behind the Scenes: Oprah’s 25th Season.”
