O'Neals try to mend relationship on TV

WASHINGTON (AP) - February 9, 2011

Ryan O'Neal and his daughter Tatum are filming a reality show for Oprah Winfrey's OWN network with the hope of further mending their relationship that was in tatters for 20 years until they reunited at Farrah Fawcett's funeral in 2009.

O'Neal says the series was Tatum's idea and she had to talk him into it.

They've filmed about a half dozen episodes so far and O'Neal says they've made progress. He says if they can grow closer, perhaps other estranged families who watch the show can do the same.

No title or premiere date of the series has been announced yet.
