Jezebel: Dr. Oz

Dr. Oz Gives His Audience No Choice But to Admit They're Fat

Cassie Murdoch — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 10:20:00 EST

Anyone who's ever watched Dr. Oz at work knows that he is a hack of the first order. He'll happily push whatever magical berry or miracle elixir will pay him, passing it off as essential to keep you from dying—or worse, getting fat. He's a women's magazine with a mouth. So we were not shocked when a tipster alerted us to an especially craptastic email that one of her family members got from the production team at The Dr. Oz Show yesterday. More »

Medical Mystery: Woman Who Remembers Everything

Today on Oprah, Dr. Oz discussed medical mysteries and he and Oprah interviewed a woman named Jill who can remember everything that ever happened in her life. Read her off a date and she can tell you what day of the week it was, what she was doing, what she was thinking, and how she was feeling. It's a neat parlor trick, but it also kind of sounds like a living hell, because she not only remembers events, but she also remembers emotions, so she's never truly able to let anything go. The old adage "time heals all wounds" doesn't apply to her. She remembers every cruel thing her mother ever said to her about her weight as a child, and her husband died a few years ago, and on the anniversary of his death, she's inconsolable, because the feelings of loss and pain haven't faded. Still, it's pretty amazing to be able to recall the life you've lived, as most of us can't recall what we did last week. Clip above, and you can read more about her here. More »

Remember how earlier today we were obsessing about pimples and we wondered why Dr. Oz and Oprah haven't covered it yet? Well, right as we were posting that, today's episode of Oprah aired, during which Dr. Oz was discussing "the science of beauty." And part of the discussion included acne! (Maybe Oprah really is Jesus, since she's able to hear our thoughts.) Dr. Oz brought out a graphic that explains exactly how pimples form. Clip above. More »

Oprah: Dr. Oz Explains The Differences Between Male And Female Brains

Yesterday, Dr. Oz was back on Oprah to talk about health, and, in one of the most interesting segments, he broke down the male and female brains. First of all, did you know that we all start off with female brains in utero? It's not until testicles are formed, that the testosterone shoots up to the brain and changes it. There are fundamental differences between male and female brains, for example, women have a whole section that's dedicated just to worrying about shit. Men typically have larger brains (women's brains shrink with pregnancy), but they aren't any more powerful than women's. We just pack more neurons into a smaller package. (Sound familiar?)

Oprah Helps Grown Man Go Poo Poo On The Potty

Yesterday's Oprah was all about people with extreme obsessive compulsive disorder. She shipped a group of them off to a camp with Dr. Oz and an OCD specialist, both of whom were given the difficult task of helping one man overcome his fear of sitting on a toilet seat — any toilet seat. The guy can't even crap on the toilet at his own home, so he's been pooping outside for years. At camp, his therapy required him to touch a toilet seat and then lick his fingers. Honestly, I don't even want to ever have to do that, and I don't even have OCD. It worked for him, however! He's been crapping on the can in his own home since he left Oprah's camp. Clip above.

William Shatner Keeps O Magazine In The Shitter

Last week, Joy Behar said that they don't want men as panelists on The View, because people don't care what men have to say when they tune in to watch that show. And that's so true. But what's great about women's daytime talk shows is that when men actually do go on, they behave so much differently than they do on other shows, and we learn something new about them that we wouldn't have otherwise known. For instance, William Shatner is a huge Oprah fan, and looks to Dr. Oz's advice on poop shape. And we learned that presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee—who bonded with Tyra over food issues—doesn't like carrots. Hmm, interesting. Maybe 'cause it's phallus shaped and he doesn't want to put it in his mouth because God did not intend for that type of union? Anyway, all that and weaves in the clip above and more after the jump.

Oprah To Start TV Network; Likely To Include Shows About S-Shaped Shit

Slut Machine — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 16:30:00 EST

Have you heard? Oprah is creating her own television network, "OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network," which will "entertain, inform and inspire people to live their best lives." Debuting in 2009, it's probably not gonna be the suckfest that her previous investment, Oxygen, turned out to be. First of all, it will start off in 70 million homes, since it's going to replace what's now the Discovery Health Channel, which is bad news for fans of documentaries about people with lobster claws, mermaid syndrome, or hearts born on the outside of their bodies. And while Oprah doesn't really focus on physical abnormalities that much, she's definitely into bodily functions. (You just know that Dr. Oz will have his own show on the network, and since O will have full editorial control of programming.) We decided to have a little fun and try to guess what shows will be on OWN. Obvs, because of her obsession with bowel movements — specifically S-shaped ones — we figured that her first show would be The Scoop on Poop. More »
