In todays' world, where millions of people are inundated with their own problems, we here at Water Vapor were curious to know why a show such as Dr. Phil could be such a huge success.
Here's what our polls say:
37%:] Enjoy watching other people whose problems are "worse than theirs".
40%:] Stupid enough to take the show seriously.
13%:] Eagerly awating the day they, too, can flaunt their personal problems on the air.
5%:] Riveted, foaming at the mouth to see Phil get an aneurysm.
5%:] Patiently plotting to KILL the pretentious bastard.
