I don't watch him. I'm kinda anti-Dr. Phil and Oprah. I'm not quite sure why. I guess I don't understand why people would go on these shows to talk about the problems that they have. Why do that? Why not just go to a competant professional? I guess I doubt their sincerety, and motivation for spilling their guts on national tv. And I'm not really sure how much being on these shows actually helps them. I think they do , or I certainly hope they have lots of follow-up for some of these people. They need more help than they can get from Dr. Phil or Oprah!
I like the more light hearted ones. I do enjoy the weight loss challenges. And I love make-overs.
It's just personal preference. If they do actually help the people on the shows, and maybe help viewers at home, I have no problem with them. I still won't watch them, but I can't think of anything better to put on in their place!
