When first researching Dr. Phil, I had wondered why his show cannot air at the same time as Oprah. Actually his syndication contracts state that if his show is airing on another station, it can’t be at the same time as Oprah. It’s because he got his start on the Oprah Winfrey Show, with a segment called “Tuesdays With Dr. Phil.” On that segment as well as his current show, he offers “life strategy” advice for guests, based off his experience as a clinical psychologist. Dr. Phil debuted on September 16, 2002 and the show has been renewed through at least the 11th season (2012-2013). The show is currently in syndication throughout the United States and Canada, and broadcast in numerous countries including, the Arab World, Ireland, and South Africa. Dr. Phil is the 2nd highest rated daytime talk show in the US. When it debuted, “it garnered the highest ratings of any new syndicated show since the launch of The Oprah Winfrey Show 16 years prior” (drphil.com). Dr. Phil McGraw was nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award for “Outstanding Talk Show Host” in 2007.
He’s had two notable incidents on the show: The first was where he confronted women pretending to be producers on the show and scamming viewers out of thousands of dollars, because they said that they could allow people to have phone conversations with Dr. Phil.

The second video shows Dr. Phil kicking the producer of Bumfights off the stage. Bumfights is an independent video series exploiting homeless people.

Some controversy arose as to why Dr. Phil would bring the Bumfights producer on his show in the first place if he didn’t want to “publicize” his pointless videos, but I think it just made the producer look incredibly stupid, and brought about awareness that these kinds of things are being produced. I think Dr. Phil should have won that Emmy, because he’s the most respectable talk show host on tv.

Hmm it appears like your website ate my first comment (it was

I as well am an aspiring blog blogger but I'm still new to everything. Do you have any suggestions for novice blog writers? I'd
genuinely appreciate it.

You need to do realize that "immigrant ghettos" are shaped by individuals that seek refuge from
their very own nation not by choise,? but since
their life is both completely ruined, or they can't securely practice there in any way any longer?. . Now feel about this a second... you are middle aged from an region that has gone down towards the crappers and therefore have virtually no formal schooling in any respect. How are you going to survive even when you find a safehaven in a ghetto?
