I’ve never been much of an Oprah fan, I mean she has and does great things and in my opinion, she is a wonderful woman – I just never got into watching her talk show. I know that she is responsible for Dr. Phil’s successful T.V. talk show, which I usually enjoy watching, if I am at home to watch it.
For a while there, he was boring me with what seemed to be nothing but unhappily married couples day after day, which I tired of quickly, and I know that at times he can appear very full of himself, but for the most part his show can, and does, stimulate my mind while being entertained, to boot!
I do notice that a good majority of men bash Dr. Phil and it really puzzles me. Hubby even dislikes watching the show and carries on about how Dr. Phil isn’t really a shrink and isn’t licensed, and then he spouts off something about how he is really just a botanist, I’m not sure where he came up with that info, and I’ve given up on trying to figure that one out.
So when it comes to watching a talk show that Hubby and I both enjoy, I must admit that the winner is ELLEN , hands down.
Wish I knew how to get my Fiance to watch Dr. Phil with me as well. When I get home I like to have my own time to just doat around the house and relax and usually that isnt a problem until I turn the TV on in the livingroom, then all hell breaks loose. I have never understood why it is such a big deal for me to just enjoy a show I love so much. He always seems to turn it off or switch it to a different channel as soon as he reaches the couch. So it seems that buying Direct TV’s Tivo is the only way to go, because you can record any show that you want at any time and watch it when you please. He still dosent know how to just deal with the fact I like it so much.
I usually like Dr. Phil too, but I have to sadly admit that lately he has seemed to be acting a little bit on the arrogant side.
I know why men don’t like him – he tells men to listen to their women, and men don’t want to listen to women!
