Is anybody else here as addicted as I am to watching Dr. Phil McGraw every Tuesday on Oprah? I absolutely love this guy! He makes so such sense and never fails to tell it like it is.

I miss Oprah! I'm at work when it's on, and the tv in my office only has satellite stations & no local stations. So I don't know anything about Dr.Phil.

that would require figuring out how to run the vcr/dvd/cable box contraption on my tv, and I'm not sure I can do that! It's on every tuesday? is he on the entire show?

Yes, the whole hour! If I have to watch "Sex" to appease you, then you have to get a dose of Phil.

So,
since you're rich (I read the other thread), will you be buying me a dvd player so I can watch all the episodes?

Do send up an alert when you plan to grow up.

Well, Anne, he is billed on Oprah Winfey's show as a "Life Strategist". Oprah first met him when she was being sued by the beef people in Texas a few years ago. He helped her out during the trial.

He gives advice to couples and individuals. He also runs workshops. He says that he doesn't work as a therapist, per se, because he doesn't do that very well. He says that he tried marriage counseling once. He had a couple in his office bickering back and forth. His response to them was that it was no wonder they didn't like each other. he had been in the room with them for 10 minutes and couldn't stand either one of them!

At any rate, he appears on Oprah's show once a week and really gives valuable advice to people. He doesn't walk on eggshells with them. I just like the way he doesn't tiptoe around the issues.

yep, Dr. Phil is on Oprah!!
I occassionally get to watch him...
But my favorite Dr. Phil show was a few weeks ago, when one of the women told how her husband totally hates her cats.
He sat right there and admited he wished she didn't have them..
Dr. Phil basically told him, that if he loved her...really deep down loved her....he would also love what is important to her, and never ask her to give them up...(her cats)
YYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH for Dr.Phil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
