Both are smart people who know how it works, and both have become extremely wealthy in the process. It's partly luck, partly talent and partly the smarts to understand how TVLand works and how to manipulate it for your own personal gain. Both Oprah and Dr Phil have totally sold out IMO and what little respect I had for them before has totally gone now. Dr Phil drags his wannabe son and Stepford wife on the show now........ At least Oprah doesn't do that, but she loves to suck up to celebs.
BTW I am still amazed to learn that Dr Phil had a first wife from whom he divorced in very unhappy circs. If you believe the Dr Phil Story he and Stepford Robyn were highschool sweethearts and he managed to win her from her snooty family with his charm and good character.

Hey yea, how come no on ever challenges Dr Phil on his marriage advice--and never says Gee Dr Phil what was your divorce like?? Why does he not own up to that?? I don't get it...
