"Ask Oprah's All-Stars" will air on OWN in January 2011. On four special nights, Dr. Oz, Suze Orman and Dr. Phil will share the stage to tackle viewers' toughest questions ... together. "We are going to do what each of us does, which is answer questions," says Dr. Oz. "When we combine ourselves together, I will tell you what to do. Phil will tell you how to do it. And Suze will tell you how to pay for it." Some questions will take the form of viewer-submitted videos. Others will come from the studio audience. No question is off-limits. No topic is taboo. Anything can happen.
