Dr. Phil

[Philippine Mango]

I think he just exploits "issues" with families and really doesn't do shit. Also some times he gives me an impression hes a woman and not a real guy...

 

[Yossarian]

I think he's fat and has an annoyingly slow way of speaking.

 

[StageLeft]

I think he often says a lot of good stuff, but my opinion of him went down when he, in his considerable girth, came out with a weight loss book. That showed me that he was just in it for the money, or not as smart as he thought he was.

 

[xcript]

I would like to smash him with a hammer.

 

[FoBoT]

he should get a real job

 

[LtPage1]

opportunist douche.

I couldn't figure that one out. I'm going to take weight loss tips from a guy that looks fat?

 

[jtusa]

Every one of his solutions starts with "You know, there was a study..." Annoys the hell out of me. I can't stand that guy.

I believe his response was "do as I say, not as I do"

Holy sh!t! I didn't know Skoorb was a housewife!?!?!?

Wow Oprah found a middle aged, fat, ugly, redneck, fake doctor, but a good speaker. Who stats the obvious. And now Oprah and "Dr." Phil are making tons of money.

Lucky biatch!

 

[Gatecrasher3]

how do people not know these things already...?

"if you beat your kids it may cause problems later in life for them"
i never would have guessed it

 

[Kipper]

He's nearly as authentic as Dr. Laura...who incidentally, isn't really a Dr., nor does she have a Ph.D. What a fakie....people will listen to anybody who's on TV or the Radio like they're God in this country.

 

[dman]

He's ok. Some things I agree with and others I don't. I don't really watch his show much though, mostly because I can't understand how people will air their dirty laundry on national TV to get pretty much common sense advice.

Well, at least they get home improvements for appearing on his show. I guess I could make our family look pretty awful for a chance at getting our home redecorated. Then we could go back to normal... except all our family and friends would think we're nuts... but hey, free furniture AND no more guests. Sign me up.

 

[CrackRabbit]

Total Quack
Though he did make my hometown to look like the bunch of reneck morons they are

 

[pyonir]

He's not even a fricken Doctor.

I didn't research enough. I was told a while ago that he isn't a real doctor. but his site bio says otherwise:

Dr. Phil has a B.S, M.A. and Ph.D. in clinical psychology from North Texas State University with a dual area of emphasis in clinical and behavioral medicine. He has been a board-certified and licensed clinical psychologist since 1978.

Believing what one is told simply because it contradicts someone who is a public figure is a common fallacy.
To quote the good doctor....."So how's that workin' for you"?
Read his book(s) and then form an opinion. To base anything resembling a cogent opinion from JUST a TV program is ridiculous.

 

[Goosemaster]

Dr. Phil is an opertunist who only the small-minded adore and whom the world will look back at in 20 years and giggle.

I would rather be a distinguished gentlemen and reveered by few, than be an opertunistic and reviled by many

 

[Rudee]

He's doing what Kathy Lee Gifford did many years ago when she was on Regis with Kathy Lee. By that I mean getting her family on TV at every opportunity possible.

 

[Philippine Mango]

Why have a noticed that every mother on the show (with a problem kid) is fat/obese? Trend here???

I won't waste my time with his books. I think his show is ridiculous enough. I've been told by numerous people, whom i trust, that he was not in fact a doctor.

He has a PhD... That makes him a Dr.

Dr. Laura has a PhD also... Although it's in biology, not psychology.


Btw, what's so bad about their shows... Why are they "ridiculous"?

If you looked at my post, i corrected myself. I posted his creditials and that he is, in fact, a doctor. Thanks for pointing that out....again.

I honestly don't care enough to get into it. IMO he exploits peoples problems for ratings...and does little to help remedy the situation or offer solid advice. if you disagree with my opinion, that's great, that's why it's an opinion.
