I think the success of a talk show depends on how true it is to the personality of the person hosting it. The shows I really admire, like 'Oprah' and 'Ellen,' are distinctively like their hosts, so I think my show will be successful only if we try to stay consistent to my own sense of myself.

This quote means that the success of a talk show is determined by how well the show reflects the personality of the person hosting it. Oprah and Ellen are examples of successful talk shows because the shows are very similar to the people who host them. The speaker believes that their show will only be successful if they remain consistent with who they are and their own unique personality.
