Oprah Winfrey is back in prime-time tonight with a special for which the title explains itself — "First Lady Michelle Obama Says Farewell to the White House" (7 p.m., CBS/Ch. 2).
Mrs. Obama tells Winfrey about her time as the first lady, the legacy she'll leave behind and her plans for the future.
It will be one of out last chances for a while to hear from a first lady who does not have nude photos of herself on the internet. (And, no, I never imagined I would write that sentence.)
