It's about time! Megalomaniacal therapist Dr Phil could soon be losing his popular television show after he paid $30,000 to bail out one of the teen girls arrested for the brutal beating of a classmate in Florida. According to a statement issued by the Dr Phil show, it was in violation of its own rules when it paid the the girl's bail and will no longer proceed with the program it was doing on her, but MSNBC sources believe this could be the end for the straight-shootin' Texan who rarely offers more than common sense.
Rumors about Oprah Winfrey’s Harpo productions cutting ties with Dr. Phil have been circulating for months, but even if Harpo did pull out, it’s still CBS TV Distribution that does the day-to-day production of the show.
Credibility concerns seem to be front and center at the moment. “People don’t trust him like they used to,” another source revealed.
People used to trust him?

hes becoming quite the attention whore.
Yeah, but Oprah cutting Dr. P because of credibility issues… Hello Pot. Meet Kettle.
"traight-shootin’ Texan who rarely offers more than common sense." At least offers that over Oprah…
Good riddance! This snake oil salesman is no better than the pathetic people he "counsels" - take him OFF and Keep him off!
Yes! He is a megalomaniac and I'm glad to see him go.
I remember his first season - he seemed pretty credible then. But the second season he began showing signs that he had ulterior motives. He had that weight-loss program that was all about changing your lifestyle and not dieting, and halfway into it he is pushing his own line of diet shakes and bars. Then his son and wife started dispensing advice and now he is, like Kareboo and and Emily stated - an attention whore and a megalomaniac.
I love me some Dr. Phizzle. I'm watching it right now.
The guy's a goddam ambulance chaser. So what's new?
dr. phil offers bullshit, and thats all he does, if you do some deep digging then you will find that he refused to let one of his show staffers go to the hospital while in the middle of filming an episode, and that man died that same day.(his appendix burst). Dr. Phil is a tyrant
Common sense is beautiful thing. Too bad it gets away from so many people.
Dr Phil is an idiot. I hope they do cancel him. He has some nerve bailing one of those little monsters out. They should all rot in jail for the rest of their lives
Ummm…Harpo Productions doesn't produce his show. Just how exactly would she drop him? I guess she could refuse to go on his show but with the exception of his 1,000 episode, she hasn't been on his show in years (if ever).
My wife watches…just for the record.
Dr Phil plays to much pocket pool!!
His first wife said he was controlling and vindictive. I hope Harpo doesn't get hurt.
Wouldn't had been better to do a show and give the Victim the money? Afterall it was the victim who was beaten unconcious. She could've used the money to get a hearing aid that she will need or the money to help pay the hospital bills. I did NOT need to hear the side of the attacker. Goodbye Phil, hope you have a retirement plan!
