I’ve never watched an actual episode of Dr. Phil, and I am not about to start now. One time I did see him berating a mother AND her daughter for, like, having problems, but I had to turn it off. He was like “you need to do this, and you need to do that,” and then they cut to footage for Fat Camp, or something, and at a certain point you are like, what am I watching? If I keep watching this will I be immortal? Because if I’m still going to die one day then off this goes! He’s not even a real doctor, you know. Oh, he might have some kind of license or degree. But when Lil Wayne picks up that fucking guitar no one thinks he’s a real guitar player. Just because you can say you are something doesn’t make you that something, especially when you prove time and time again in public that you couldn’t be further from it. He’s probably less of a doctor than even Dr. Drew, who is also not a doctor. BUT, if I WERE going to watch an episode of Dr. Phil, I would definitely watch next Monday’s episode in which he interviews a very visibly drunk Dina Lohan. I can wax moral all I want, this is still AMERICA. The promo for the episode is after the jump and it’s great:
See? Like, that’s enough. We don’t need to watch a whole episode of this. But, if we ever did, this would be a good one. With your tiny shoes and your tiny tie. HA HA HA. Good one, Dina Lohan, you old bag. Also, what kind of black magic did Michael Lohan weave to come out of this one seemingly looking like the “sane” and “rational” member of the family? They clearly edited that one clip of him because the full quote is “Was she drunk when you interviewed her? Or was she just on cocaine and Diet Red Bull like I am?” GOOD SHOW, GOOD HEALTH, GOOD FAMILY, GOOD OBAMA, GOOD ROMNEY, GOOD USA!

This whole thing is garbage for a lot of reasons (mostly don’t put someone who you think is attention-hungry and a bad mom because of it ON YOUR TALK SHOW) but I literally laughed out loud for a good number of seconds when he said “You people?!” Never change, Dr. Phil!
Old white fake doctors get the worst stereotypes.
Yeah, I mean, to what is she/he referring?? Any time anyone ever says “you people” to me even out of context, I’m definitely responding in that way because that’s the best response.
I think she means the media in general? But also, she’s voluntarily being interviewed for a TV show? That sums up fake celebrity life in a nutshell.
I don’t get it either. I assume she means the public? Is Dr. Phil standing up for the entire human race vs. Dina Lohan?
I’m pretty sure he tried to put on his best “sassy” face.
This seems like a good time to say how much I hate that trailer for Trouble With the Curve, from its stupid title to how bad Justin Timberlake looks in it to that awful joke at the end about Dr. Phil being “quality television” or something. Ugh hate that trailer.
Looks like I’m having “Trouble With the Commenting.” Not a reply.
The best part is that this is likely a reaction shot done after she was already gone.
“OK that was great – let’s retake that ‘you people’ reaction again – a little more incredulous this time” -some producer
They don’t retake reaction shots. They just cheat it from somewhere else in the interview.
That’s what really bugs me about this promo. You can tell pretty much the whole thing is cheated to make her look in far worse condition than she is. For example, that whole “Are we to camera now? We’re rolling?” is a very normal thing someone would say when they begin an interview, but the way they play it (dropping the music, cutting to a shot of Phil to create an awkward pause) is a poorly executed attempt to make her look banonkers.
Or maybe it was well executed, since a lot of people suddenly seem excited about Dr. Phil.
I misread part of your comment…yeah, they probably re-took a lot of Dr. Phil’s reactions.
Obviously, SOMEONE doesn’t spend enough time with his grandmother or else he would have definitely seen at least one episode of Dr. Phil.
Thanks, both my grandmas are dead! Thanks for the reminder! *weeping uncontrollably*
i still <3 u!
Yay!
DR Phil would remind you to “be grateful you had grandmas, because not everyone is as lucky as you” or some other similarly nonsensical rubbish.
Then he’d talk about himself for a bit, and we’d all go back to sleep and listen to the subliminal messages telling us to watch his show/buy his book/buy his dvd. Which even our unconscious/subconscious brains would ignore because WTF?
You know what’s kind of mind bending? How much time the editors and producers of this show have to spend with the uncut footage. I just got chills thinking about it.
I imagine “Dr” Phil is the last stop on the line to irrelevancy for this wreck. Say hello to Ballon Boy’s parents and Joe Millionaire for us
There’s no need to bring Weezy into this.
Dina Lohan’s entire life = Lil Wayne playing guitar.
#apt
wait…are we sure that’s not Ann Romney?
showing too much emotion
It’s not Dr. Phil’s fault his tie is small. He’s Irish.
“If I keep watching this will I be immortal? Because if I’m still going to die one day then off this goes!”
This is the correct way to approach a world full of content from which each of us is allowed to extract and consume an unknown but finite amount. That preview was worth a minute of my life, but holy shit, the interview is an HOUR long?
The lighting on this is AMAZING.
Coming up next on Letting Go of the Lohans…
Isn’t Dr. Drew a real doctor?
This is like watching a turd and a poop fight to the death. No one benefits from this.
This is just plain sad. Her life is in complete shambles.
I love the unnecessary edits that the producers are using here, like when Mrs. Lohan asks if the cameras are rolling. Really, you had to use that footage to drum up interest? Because there were not enough scenes of her acting like herself? Also, Mr. Lohan asking if Mrs. Lohan had been drinking prior to the interview. That does not seem like an honest question. He had been drinking, she had been drinking, “Dr.” Phil had been drinking. It was probably a requirement of the producers. I would imagine that they (“talent” & crew) were playing several rounds of “asshole” before the cameras even rolled. I thought Dina seemed very pleasant “flitting” around. So what her daughter’s been arrested all those times. Lindsay’s an adult. Why doesn’t the doctor have other parents of felons (hello, Matthew Fox’s folks [assuming they're not dead because I'm too lazy to look]) on to criticize them? Where is Chris Brown’s dad? What, oh, he doesn’t know? My bad. Well, they could at least have on one of his older relatives to berate them extensively.
Dina’s definitely been Gym, Tan Zinfandeling.
Gym, Vodka Xanaxing
Why are people so fascinated by these nobodies? WHYYYY?
If someone could find a .gif where somebody screams “Why?” into a thunderstorm, that would be amazing.
do you get paid for these appearances?
