If you’re a fan of Jay Leno and the Oprah Winfrey Show (well, that doesn’t exist anymore, does it?) then you’ll definitely be a fan of the Olive Gopaul Show, which will have its first airing on TVG 28 tonight at 20:00 hours.
Olive Gopaul
Olive is best known as Miss Guyana World 2001, when she became the most loved beauty queen in a very long time. Her entry into the pageant 10 years ago, generated excitement once more in local beauty pageants, and her participation at the Miss World pageant that same year in Sun City, South Africa brought attention not experienced since Shakira Baksh won the third place in the global beauty pageant in 1967.
Since the pageant, Gopaul has tested various initiatives, but in The Olive Gopaul Talk Show, she hopes to find stability.
She describes the show as an original and unique concept which seeks to offer audiences creatively conceptualized, well-researched and professionally executed discourses between the presenter and one or more guests on selected issues before live audiences.
The show seeks, simultaneously, to enlighten and to entertain. The show is geared at a target audience between ages 25 – 65.
Olive has launched the show under a brand called Olive Nalini Gopaul (ONG) and hopes to make it one of the better talk shows in the Caribbean.
She aims to offer television viewers in Guyana a high-quality, diverse television production that breaks with the trend of a preponderance of imported television entertainment content.
To secure regional and international acceptance of television content originating in Guyana thereby increasing the volume of space for the global marketing of Guyanese products and services, the show will be marketed as a seasonal production.
