I'm obsessed with this show. I wake up every morning at 7 am, put channel 24 on, and make my breakfast. I watch dr Phil for hours on end. He's very straight forward, and has no problem telling you how he feels. Dr. Phil is also very helpful with people that need it. And gives very good advice. Hopefully one day I will make it to sit in the audience. This show is as real as it can get.
