(CBS/AP) CHICAGO - "The Oprah Winfrey Show" is scheduled to air its final original episode on May 25, but the lights won't be going out at Winfrey's studio in Chicago.

That's because Rosie O'Donnell's new talk show will be produced at Harpo Studios on Chicago's West Side.

Executives at Harpo announced the move on Tuesday. O'Donnell is slated to return to daytime TV with the one-hour show on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network in the fall.

In a statement, Winfrey says she's delighted to welcome O'Donnell to the studio that's been her home for years.

When the show was announced in August, the network described it as "a fun, uplifting show with Ms. O'Donnell's playful and energetic style."

O'Donnell hosted a syndicated series, "The Rosie O'Donnell Show" from 1996 to 2002 and won six Emmy Awards for it.
