Oprah Winfrey’s got a new place to dwell: CBS primetime.

The megastar hosts An Oprah Special: The Presleys – Elvis, Lisa Marie and Riley, in which she sits down with Riley Keough at Graceland to talk about the Daisy Jones & The Six star’s mom, Lisa Marie Presley, and grandpa, the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll himself, Elvis Presley. The hourlong show airs at 8 p.m. Tuesday, October 8, on the Tiffany network.

The special sees Winfrey travel to the historic Graceland Mansion in Memphis for Keough’s first in-depth interview since her mother died unexpectedly in 2023. Lisa Marie, who was married to Michael Jackson for two years in the mid-1990s, had recorded hours of stories from her remarkable life for a memoir, From Here to the Great Unknown, which Riley finished co-writing and goes on sale the day the special airs.

Keough shares what the writing process was like and stories and remembrances of her mother. The Presleys also features never-published family photos and home videos as well as selections of Lisa Marie’s personal audio recordings. “I felt my father could change the weather,” she wrote. “He was a god to me. A chosen human being.” He died in 1977 at 42.

Keough, an Emmy nominee whose recent credits also include Under the Bridge, Sasquatch Sunset and The Terminal List, talks about the extreme highs, lows and pressures of being a Presley and the deep, profound relationship she had with her mother.
