The man is dangerous! No doctor in hi right mind would try to reunite a child molester with his wife and children!
CBS should face fcc charges for airing such filth on tv!
I watched the new Dr. Phil (house call) and I don’t see any difference than he making house calls instead of in the studio. His shows have become boring on tv so I stopped watching. This show is slightly different but, yet the same. The show with the girl that didn’t talk to her Dad for 5 yrs. was really phony, especially from the teenage girl. That show seemed very staged. I don’t know if I will continue watching different shows but, for now I’m not that interested in the same old thing with a slightly different format. Also, why… Read more »

Thought it was very good.
Watching night special right now, the daughter Lexie, her neck looks like she has thyroid problems, please have her checked for that.
Enjoying the show
Yes, I love Dr . Phil!
OMG NOOOOOOO i’m so done with Dr Phil and ALLLLLLLLLLLL these idiotic realty TV shows theey arrent based on anything real
I welcome an evening show with him mediating some sanity and common sense into local towns. I’d sure like him to come to mine!!!
NO. NO. NO. This sounds like Must Miss TV.
He needs to go like Oprah!!!!
Kind of over the whole Dr.Phil thing.It seems to have gotten a bit ridiculous,selling his wife’s face creams ,(clearly she is doing more than just using creams lol) Then, the daily reminder to watch her “I’ve got a secret”, to the time Jordan (their son) came on to play a song with some girl, and Robin acted like a teen age girl crushing over her fave rock star. Sorry, but it has taken a really weird commercialized turn for me.I have also noticed that he gets quite short with people sometimes,he seems to have lost some patience over time,maybe too… Read more »
Absolutely NOT! My family was scheduled to be on House Calls. We went through screening, mental health conversations and were told the other family that was to join us had a son that died of drug overdose and Dr. Phil still wanted to work with us as we were dealing with a daughter struggling with addiction. We ended up on the Dr. Phil Show, which was the worse decision ever!!! The show is scripted, edited for ratings and Dr. Phil and his producers are in the business of sensationalism instead of helping. My family all had a point during taping… Read more »
Can’t wait. Love Dr. Phil.
I love Dr. Phil and will definitely watch this show. I wish I had known about these shows as my son is going through a divorce after being married for 17 years. They have a son. It just breaks my heart. We knew nothing about them having trouble until his wife kicked him out of the house for being gone a lot for drinking. He went through treatment for drug and alcohol abuse when he was 18 and we thought he was still doing ok. Come to find out he’s been drinking for at least 5 years. Breaks my heart… Read more »
