Dr. Phil

8 years ago

You know, I've started to notice a marked decrease in Dr. Phil's show these days, but his advertisements keep getting better. It used to be, whenever I sat down to watch a whole episode of Dr. Phil, it was a special occassion. I just got home from school on some middle-week day, I just made myself some soup or popcorn or some shit to ease my bloodthirst, and I need something hilarious and sad to prepare me for homework-doing. I would watch the whole thing, that's the key point here.

Nowadays, it's difficult. I very rarely watch the whole thing. In fact, I usually watch about 10 minutes before realizing I don't really care, but the ads always get me intrigued enough that I want to see the next episode just to know the story. Anyone else fallen into this cycle of Phil?

My dad had once told me if you were going to compare Oprah and Dr.Phil then Dr. Phill would be the Jerry springer version that was more enjoyable. Watched a few episodes after that and enjoyed it for like a year.
