Rosie O'Donnell and Rosie's Broadway Kids at 'Rosie's Gala: Building Dreams for Kids' held at the Marriott Marquis. New York City, USA - 24.11.08

The programme was aired by U.S. TV network NBC to determine whether there was a market for the show.

But Rosie Live pulled in just 5 million viewers and garnered scathing reviews - prompting O'Donnell to admit her show was a failure.

She writes on her blog, "there will b no more. no ratings. bad reviews. yet still - a thrill 4 me."
