This show stirs up a lot of negative emotions within me for Dr. Phil,
but mostly its embarrassment in general. I am embarrassed for
adults that need to come on his show and listen to him load spout
stuff that is already common knowledge. Embarrassed at myself
for flipping through the channels and stopping on him for just a
few minutes to give him the time of day. What a big mistake.
Can't people just talk things out without having this mentally-challenged pretentious, "doctor" telling them what's ok?
The saddest thing of all is it seems like most of his guests are
extremely well-off, intelligent people who can work their own
problems out through time. I sincerely wish they wouldn't waste
their time on his show. I even feel like I'm wasting my time now,
but I had to balance out the gushing reviews for this man.
If you're in a really good mood and you feel like diminishing it,
watch Dr. Phil. He's useless, pretentious, and boring. "Dr. Drew"
would be a much better show.

I use to really like this show and make time out of my day to watch it, but they lost me over a year ago.
It just became too repetitive and predictable. 45 minutes laying out a dysfunction, a minute satisfying the audience with a few words undermining the nemesis and then a free trip to a fix-it farm.
On and on it goes to where all the problems bleed into one repetitive array of voyeurism about lives that are too negative to be of interest or true business of my own.
Beauty products and makeup sales along with the latest must have book tuck neatly into time slots to satisfy the entranced fan.
Phil has value, just a very tired and worn out format and show.

Dr. Phil gets 2 stars. 1 for actually taking up important issues and creating awareness and 1 for being entertaining - sometimes.
This is not the show to watch if you want a serious "(self) help" show. Dr. Phil is in your face and confrontational, which is sometimes funny, but you never doubt just whose side he is on in any given case - and you never doubt that the other part in the case is a horrible and guilty person. There are no shades of gray on Dr. Phil's show - which is strange, as the man has an education in psychology.
However, Dr. Phil may actually prove harmful sometimes. As it often is with media, he simply holds too much sway over people - he gives an opinion and millions of viewers cry out in agreement without the hassle of researching the subject. Not only harmful to the individuals, that Dr. Phil targets, it seems to also help undermine people's trust in actual authority, like the law (which, by no means is perfect or anywhere near that, but it is still a harmful influence that really doesn't help as it is often without real substance, just full of emotions).
Watch it if you like sob stories going no where, villains and judgment, or if you, like me, are a psychology student who is very interested in seeing the "acclaimed" Dr. Phil's verdicts and in making your own.
Funny note: Try to notice how many times Dr. Phil gives out-right professional advice as in "You have to do this/ you should do this...". None. Why? Because he's not a licensed psychologist any more, meaning that he CAN'T do it - it's against the law. All he can do is offer "good ideas" or layman's advice.

I lost respect from him after he bailed those six girls that beat up Victoria Lindsay out of jail. Where's the outrage there?! I say we cancel his show for that and put those six girls back in prison. They need therapy alright, shock therapy! All that was over the boy. When someone cheats on you, suck it up. They should be focusing on their school work rather than boys. There's people with kids missing and they are crying over a boy.
This host is unbelievably self-promoting and unethical. He hasn't practised for years and his behaviour has resulted in many participants on his show being abused in sick ways.
