“The Oprahcalypse is upon us!” shrieked Andy Cohen when Oprah Winfrey joined the elated talk-show host Thursday on “Watch What Happens Live.”
Sipping a vodka tonic in the “WWHL” clubhouse, the American icon fielded questions from the star struck host and callers, played the show’s signature games, and laughed along as Cohen rolled footage from “The Oprah Winfrey Show.”

The other day I went, ‘God, are y’all getting bigger?’ These are my grandmother’s — she’s with me.” After recounting her childhood horror at being buried in her grandmother’s bosom, Oprah provided the punch line to Cohen’s summary.
