So disappointed with Dr Phil
 
I used to love the Dr Phil show, but lately it has become the family shop at home show. He is promoting the family businesses to much, first of course it's his books (which I don't have a problem with) then his sons publishing house, now it's his wife's skin care line, now her lip gloss line, and yesterday his son's credit card company. If I want this, I watch QVC. Lets get back to basics Dr Phil. Does this bother anyone else ?

I stopped watching him many, many years ago. But yes, that would bother me!!

I don't watch it because I never liked using people with real problems for profit.

I just started watching him. He is promoting a lot, including his Dr. on Call thingy. They sent me stuff to be on his show. I didn't want to go. You never know who he's going to turn on. I like the nasty MIL stories. ( I think her name was Galoop or something like that.) Me and my MIL hang out together, so we don't have those problems,

He has lost all credibility with me. Its all about the $$$ now.

I havn't watched his show in years. Too many sad things happen without listening to other peoples crazy problems.

I have only watched him a few times. A long time ago. I think he is a phony and only for the money.

He has gone Hollywood. So has Dr. Oz and The Drs. I always enjoyed them all when they were informative. Now I don't bother.

Too Jerry Springer, IMHO. I gave up on him years ago. Who lives like that?? Nasty ....


Yes, too much family boasting. Robin has had soooo. much plastic surgery it is hilarious!

And dr phil doesn't even have a license. Some trouble with the licensing board and he blew them off instead of addressing issues. Easy to find on google. Hard to know what the truth is with show "guests" since they are going for drama.
