Dr Phil keep plugging his son and now we have to put up with his playboy playmate daughter in law. Such a joke for a doctor who was very critical of porn!! And yes he is no longer a doctor as he did not go to court to face the music. His license was not renew and he can only do entertainment psy. and that is what it is.

So no, he is NOT a doctor.

I'm in the Houston market and both of these "doctors" are daytime drags. I'd rather watch a judge show. It’s lose-lose. I’m in the Houston market and both of these “doctors” are daytime drags.

Sometimes first runs of certain types of shows (aka your "daytime" programs) have certain areas where they agree to show your program - but I'm not sure that was the case with this one. In my old market, NBC showed Dr. Phil during the day, then again at 7P. Chances are they could stick him anywhere on their schedule. However, affiliates probably wouldn't take off their paid programming spots. Contract only have to do with # of years/eps they bought.

Credibility-wise, the station did the right thing. Sucks they have to pay for two more years, though.
