Some wacko shrink(psychologist) that helped Oprah get over the dread full emotional damage of a hangnail or something, and now she's paraded him and his opinions all over American TV.
Answer: Good for Oprah's pocketbook

Dr. Phillip McGraw, PhD. became a daytime television celebrity thanks to his weekly appearances on the popular talk show of Oprah Winfrey. Beginning in 1998, Dr. Phil, as he is known, was a weekly guest on the show, where he offered relationship advice to couples willing to face up to his no-nonsense demands to "get real." Prior to his appearances with Oprah, McGraw founded and headed Courtroom Sciences, Inc., a litigation consulting firm that specialized in helping legal teams select jurors. In 2002 he created his own syndicated daytime talk show, Dr. Phil. His books include Life Strategies (2000), Self Matters (2001) and Ultimate Weight Solution: the 7 Keys to Weight Loss Freedom (2003).

Dr. Phil is getting the rest of the family into the act. At least he does laugh at himself , and at us also. All the way to Oprah's bank.

Just some guy that goes on tv, and tells people what is wrong with their relationship, and whos fault it is, actually he is teaching some people to blame, and that is not a good thing to get people to start too do. Cause then when it may be their problem, they wil blame someone else for it. Instead of taking it on themself. So just forget about dr. phil, i really don't think he is worth watching. but that is my opinion.
