Dr. Keith is not as annoying!

It's too bad his show is getting canceled!

Seeing as how Dr. Phil had his license revoked by an ethics board for sleeping with his patients, I'd say that this Dr. Keith guy wins by default, seeing as how I have no idea who he is. If he's a "doctor" in the same vein as Phil, though (which is to say a doctor on tv), then he fails and i vote neither.

Dr. Keith. I voted for him even though his show is getting canceled.

Tvh***.net says so. Check the website if you don't believe me.

I have never heard that before about him. Is it true? If so, where did you get this information? I'd like to know the whole story on this if it is true.

One thing I have read about Dr. Phil is he was sued for over $100,000 by a Texas aviation firm which provides corporate jet services because they claimed he didn't pay them. The information is here if you want to look:

Although he has valid degrees, I still think he's a big phony pure and simple.

Here you are.

Salon article about Phil McGraw

I may be mistaken about the license being revoked but he was reprimanded in some way. The page I linked to also has some other incidents that could be conceivably called "fraud."

Dr. Keith is a psychiatrist whose talk show will be canceled after this fall.

I haven´t heard of keith before, but I´m quite sure that he´s better than phil. "Dr" Phil thinks he´s always right and I´ve seen him give bad advice before. I don´t understand why some women think he´s a god or something (including my mom unfortunately),

Very interesting article, thanks for posting it. None of it really surprises me. Everyone thinks he knows it all and blindly listen to him.

One of the things I found most despicable was how he and a set of parents lured a teen on the show under false pretenses and told him to enter rehab or else, then escorted the family out under guard. Someone who claims to preach honesty then along with parents out and out lies to someone to get what they want isn't someone I'd respect. I think any parent who lies to their children to get them to do something isn't much of a parent. Mine made promises to me they had no intention of keeping to get me to things they wanted. I lost alot of respect for them because of it and found it hard to take them seriously about some things after that. They lied once to get what they wanted from me, why wouldn't they do it again?

Of all the things they did that I might be willing to forgive, lying isn't one of them.

What are you asking here? You just ask "Dr. Phil or Dr. Keith?" And expect me to know what you're asking? It could be "Which one is worse", "Which one is better?", "Which one is dumber?", "Which one is more annoying?", but I wont know until you tell me now will I?

Anyway I don't even know who Dr. Keith is.

I think they're asking about both of them in general.

I like Dr. Phil. I've always wanted to meet him in person. :)

I like Dr. Keith too. He's nice.
