Oprah Winfrey is repackaging her now-ended daytime talk show to make it a key part of the lineup for OWN, her struggling cable channel.

Winfrey said she will host the new series that will recycle episodes of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" as a "classroom" intended to help viewers improve their lives. The show, titled "Own Your Life," will air weekdays at 8 pm EST starting October 10.

It will be paired with "The Rosie Show," the new Rosie O'Donnell talk show that will air daily, right before "Own Your Life." O'Donnell's show also debuts October 10.

Winfrey, speaking to the Television Critics Association, said she is immersed in the Oprah Winfrey Network to ensure it serves her vision and the needs of viewers.
