Thursday night's Tribal Council was the Tribal Council of all Tribal Councils on "Survivor: Samoa." The vote was split with five castaways voting to send home Laura Morett, and five voting for Southern belle Natalie White.

When the vote is split like that, a second ballot is cast by everyone except the two named in the first vote. If there was a tie the second time, both Laura and Natalie would be safe, and stones would be drawn by the remaining castaways to see who would go home.

Three of Laura's original Galu tribe members still wrote her name down, but John Fincher took the opportunity to rid himself of a tough competitor: Laura had won individual immunity the previous two weeks in a row.

Talk-show host and celebrity cook Rachael Ray tells ET her thoughts about the news that Oprah Winfrey's show will come to an end in 2011.

Rachael tells ET: "I am going to enjoy every episode between now and 2011. Oprah opened the door for me to move into daytime television and I can’t thank her enough. I look forward to seeing what she does next…there will only ever be one Oprah!"

Earlier Friday, Oprah announced the news on her show, saying in part, "Why walk away? Here is the real reason -- I love this show, this show has been my life. And I love it enough to know when it's time to say goodbye." The tearful TV icon then said that the 25-year mark was "the exact right time," before adding that "the countdown to the end of 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' starts right now."
