Dr. Oz is a joke.

Does anyone else notice how the topic of his show on one day completely contradicts his show on the next day? He just jumps from fad to fad. It is so frustrating to watch. The useful information that he actually conveys is lost in all the mumbo jumbo. I think I am going to break up with him and save that room on my DVR for something else. :)

    I think he's really a Muppet.

    But that may be a slam against Muppets.

    His input really hasn't been useful in at least a year... possibly longer. I remember when his topics were informational, research-based subjects. Now its all about which company pays him the most.

    My 87-year-old mother has purchased every diet supplement he has recommended (like raspberry ketone), even though she doesn't need it. I know, because every time he has some new diet product on his show, my mom calls and tells me to get it. She and my sister will try it for weeks with no results. I no longer listen to cnversations that start of, "Dr. Oz says..."

    Yes its gone downhill - when he started it was groundbreaking and addressed things you wanted to ask your doctor - but were reticent about. I hardly watch any more, its more like an infomercial - each day a new magic solution to losing weight.

    OMG! Don't make fun of Dr. Oz! The Raspberry Ketones helped me drop 425 lbs last week!

    I think it is sad...when he first started out on Oprah I did find all his info pretty sound researched and helpful but since getting his own show I guess they have run out of 'real' facts to share and have just moved on to fads. He should quit to save his reputation. Another great mind bought and paid for by big business. :(:ohwell:

    Dr. Oz is right on everything. Oprah said so.

    I think his answer would be because everyday the world "evolves" and I approach these things as if they are "new" and this would be his exact reason ;)

    his viewing audience wants "get-thin-quick-without-effort" stories and that's what he gives them so that his show doesn't get dropped from syndication.
