64. This guy is nothing more than a huckster (promoted by Oprah) and his true colors have been revealed. He is NOT a licensed psychologist and should stop pretending that he its. Why is he still on TV giving worthless advice?

66. Everyone knows that Britney needs help. However, "Dr. Phil" is not licensed as a therapist in CA so he can't provide professional help to Britney or anyone else. The reality is that he was attempting to USE Britney for his TV ratings and it backfired. IMO he is an arrogant a** that finds any way he can to USE people and extend his fame. He's a fraud and should be taken off the air.

I don't give a damn what the family wanted. If you can show me that Dr. Phil is properly licensed to practice Psychiatry or Psychology, in California, great. If you can't then stop drinking the Dr. Phil Kool-Aid. I realize today is a holiday, but IMO, their seems to be an orgasmic adulation over Dr. Phil and all of the other cronies on day time TV, and it is beyond disturbing on this message board. As the old saying goes: If you aren't the lead dog, the view never changes. Why people get so wrapped up in Oprah, Dr. Phil, Rachael Ray and the rest of the day time tlakers, I will never understand. Live your won lives, people.

Just because peole have a TV show, doesn't mean that they are always right and always correct.

69. I do believe Dr. Phil's intentions were for the good. Was the way it was done the best way?......no, but as he said, "At least he was trying to do something." Everyone else is just watching this "train" go full speed ahead and just waiting for the "crash". Is there anyone who is trying to "derail" it? Everytime I see and read things about Britney I immediately think of Anna Nicole. If other's around Anna had done something positve would she be alive today? We can't condeem Dr. Phil for at least trying to help....

70. Felicity: There is very lilttle difference between Dr. Phil and Jerry Springer, except Jerry is honest about what he does. Phil exploits people for his ratings and nothing else. Phil is such a dirtbag.

71. Dear Debbie #17:
Girl you are so right.....I could not have said it better. Phil is so afraid of Robin it makes me sick and she is so full of herself along with Botox and everything else......her teeth even are overdone to the point of her not being able to close her mouth correctly.
We know what Phil wanted and the only thing he wanted and Britney was his "rating token" he thought.

72. As my mom used to say...someone got caught with their tit in the wringer!!!!! Oooops!! Plus you know his good old friend Opy chewed on him for a bit. He brought more light to himself than he ever imagined!!!! How's that workin' for ya Phil?

73. # 41 - Good info. The DIVORCED and sanctimonious Phil was married to "I have Chiclets for teeth" Robin and had two small children when he was sanctioned for having an affair with a 19-y.o. I knew that ugly, bald blowhard bushwhacked around. And he thinks Brittany needs an intervention

Phil needs to be quiet..........his background is being exposed......... BTW, he is so fat and has the nerve to write diet books.
What crap!!!

AS the old saying goes, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. As for Britney, I don't know what is going on with her and I seriously doubt any one here does as well. Sure, many can speculate about her situation, but speculation doesn't mean squat.

I do hope Britney is okay and everything works out for her, but I really do question why anyone would ask a day time talk show host to go and speak to her. Like I said before if you can show me where he is licensed to practice in California, greaat. If not, then IMO, it was a really stupid move trying to get him involved.

Talk show hosts are people not Gods.
