Very Low Level Show, 26 April 2012
Author: leader-7 from United States

The program is geared toward people with absolutely no attention span and offers little useful information. Mostly sensational in its format, the presentations are geared toward selling a nutrient, micro nutrient, or "procedure" being marketed by the guests. Medically and scientifically, the show has huge gaps.

The games he used to have at the end, "Jeopardy-like" were abandoned this season -- and good riddance. They made a mockery of both the contestants and the issues being addressed -- the games were supposed to be substantive, to teach the viewer something. They always fell short.

A final observation: there is rarely any follow up with the guests who've had to lose considerable weight, or whom he's challenged to make major changes in lifestyle. Why? Doesn't he/producers believe in what they're doing? Let's see these successes (or not) and work harder to help them, rather than just making 'examples' out of them on TV.

Dr. Oz show directed towards 5 year olds!, 7 March 2013
1/10
Author: bangzinga from United States

I can't believe how childish this show is! Dr oz brings people from the audience to participate in poking dried up body parts where a dried human liver looks identical to dried kidney! The concept is a cross between medical information and a game show with childish women! There is so much time wasted with the audience members that it becomes unbearable! The games he plays are absolutely ridiculous and instead of the information being delivered effectively there is lot of stuffing around with childish games that are tedious and end nowhere! The format of the show is again juvenile and an insult to our intelligence! I just turned over to the Dr oz show to see what topics he was addressing today and surprise surprise, it was about diets for the 10,000 th time! I think that he has addressed the subject of what constitutes a good diet enough but obviously he doesn't think so! I can't believe Oprah was associated with this show being as bad as it is!
