Am I the only one who gets lowkey uncomfortable watching Dr. Phil?

My family is hooked on that show, and I used to enjoy it too at some point, but...

Whenever the audience laughs at something one of the people say I just can't help but feel like they're being shamed. Humiliated on public TV. 😩

I get that they're getting help, but it still bothers me a lot.

Yeah, it bothers me too. My mom used to watch that show every day. It's been a while since she has watched it, but I also feel bad for the people being humiliated. You couldn't pay me enough to go on that show, no matter how badly I needed help.
