Hot topics, a birthday celebration and snagging Jay Leno for a sit down helped CBS Television Distribution's "The Oprah Winfrey Show" to the top of the syndication ratings for the first time in ten weeks, besting fellow CTD show "Judge Judy," reports B&C.

The "Winfrey" show had a 15% boost from the previous week to a 5.5 average for the week ending January 31, with the high-water mark at 6.2 rating on Jan. 28 for her interview with Leno.
