Jennifer Aniston Considering Own Talk Show After Chelsea Lately Appearance

With a bountiful production schedule in place that includes three recently wrapped features and roughly seven projects in development, no one expected Jennifer Aniston to join her Friends alums in venturing back to the small screen. Sure, maybe she would reprise that old lesbian bit on Courteney Cox's sexually charged Cougar Town or return to 30 Rock as Jack Donaghy's crazy, hat-making two-night stand, but develop her own talk show...on cable?

The New York Post reports that Aniston has already "agreed to do a weekly show for Oprah's new cable channel, OWN when it launches sometime next year." The cable channel is a joint effort between Oprah and Discovery Communications Inc. aimed to inspire people to live their best lives. Reportedly, Aniston was so struck by the intimacy of her Chelsea Lately appearance last month, in which she promoted the ill-fated Love Happens, that she set her sights on creating her own talk show.

Other details about Aniston's gab project have yet to surface, but maybe we can glean some clues from the inciting Chelsea Lately segment. In the video below, the Friends superstar remarks on Chelsea's surprisingly "sweet" audience before effortlessly segueing into topics ranging from vodka to gambling to Mormon boyfriends to a dog named Chunk.
