I recall the episode where he tried to interview the creator of Bum Fights (Which for the record is an awful idea, not defending the guy in the least).
The guy came out dressed as Dr.Phil complete with his receding hairline and mustache, Likely to prove the point Phil is no better making money off of people in bad situations.
Phil immediately kicked him out.

This guy is arguably worse than Jeremy Kyle when it comes to people who made a living out of exploiting vulnerable people on television, because while he's clearly a f***ing dreadful human being at least Jeremy Kyle never marketed himself as a doctor while at best knowing nothing and at worst railroading people into dangerous "treatment" despite knowing nothing. It's just a new level of unethical.

this will be weird for me not seeing him because I catch the last few minutes of his show before the local news at 4

The best thing he did was provide material for a The Right Opinion video essay about him, so yeah. About that video, it's kind of amazing how it's basically two and a half hours of Dr. Phil being terrible and yet somehow the worst detail in it is some other talk show setting a dude up to be murdered a couple of days later for the crime of being gay and then continuing to run for years like nothing happened. Like what the f***.

First Maury. Then Oz. Now Phil. You’re next Geraldo, you and that dead rat you keep glued to your upper lip!

Unfortunately Oprah is still standing and no doubt hyping up the next Dr. Phil, Oz or John of God as we speak.

this will be weird for me not seeing him because I catch the last few minutes of his show before the local news at 4 I know about that. Used to have that other shithead doctor that Oprah helped unleash on the world, Dr Oz before the local news at 4, then it was his daughter, and now it's Jennifer Hudson. I'll take Hudson over them any day of the week.

Phil immediately kicked him out. And the thing with that is that dr phil intentionally timed when exactly he would kick him out. He obviously waited until the reel of bum fights played and then acted like he has never seen this footage before with disgusted gestures. So he could then act like a hero while the audience applauds him for kicking out the bum fights guy. I don't care what anybody says, that was planned.

Let me just say that Shelley Duvall, although she has been through wringers, was nowhere near the lunatic Dr. Phil depicted her as when she appeared on Grimm Life Collective. Funny how that works out. Geez I kind of wish you didn’t remind me of that. That was some top shelf exploitation by Dr. Phil.

I mean, she said weird stuff and Phil exploited it indeed. But she came off much better on the Grimm interview. Helps that the GLC people are fans who probably really care about her. I admit to being a sucker for these sorts of TV interviews...see also: Robert Blake on Piers, James Brown on Larry King (?)

Was he even really a doctor?

Was he even really a doctor? Yes but pretty early into the show he let his license lapse, presumably because it made him less likely to see legal consequences for what he was saying and doing if he didn't have it anymore.

It always bothered me that he went by "Dr. Phil".
What kind of "doctor" uses their f***ing first name in their title?

If I remember, he coached Oprah's testimony when she was sued by those beef dudes after she said she wouldn't eat beef anymore. She liked him and let him on her show, then gave him his own after a while.
So, you can blame beef for all of this!

Was he even really a doctor? Yeah, he had a doctorate in clinical psychology. But he hasn't been licensed to actually practice it since 2006.
