Helter Skelter
I missed the first Mikai show, so how was he "sexually inappropriate" with his younger sister? The DP website was unclear.
sarcastic chick
The video that they showed during this episode, with Mikai wrestling with the little girl, was the same video they also showed last time. I hesitate to call it "sexually inappropriate" because I couldn't tell what was going on. (That doesn't mean it wasn't inappropriate - I just couldn't tell.)

Aside from the video, the lie detector test showed that Mikai lied about never touching his sister's breasts and vagina. He also attempted to molest or rape other girls.
Roobear
Helter Skelter: They showed a video of Mikai lifting her sister's dress & touching her private area.


Kendra doesn't need shoes thrown at her head. I rather throw batteries (D size) at her. God, she is so damn stupid. Showing more sympathy to that bastard of a son Makai, than her younger sister whose life he has ruined. She is a disgrace to herself,her family, & all mothers everywhere. I don't think she cares about the younger sister. If she had her way, Mikai would be home right now torturing her sister & she will still turn a blind eye on it. I have absolutely NO sympathy for Makai or Kendra.

I wish that Bill O'Reilly would of caught this story. Shill would catch hell from O'Reilly & would put this schmuck in his place.

Makai might have a future? Yeah. In San Quentin hopefully. I guarantee that he's still molesting & raping his sister at this very moment. He will never be healed. He's 19 & already I consider him a failure.

The next time I see another update on Mikai, he has better be either arrested, in jail, or killed.

Mom just needs to be hit in the head by Petuni's sneakers a few hundred times.

Well...not THESE sneakers...she isn't worth my shelltop Adidas w/the silver stripes. But here! (hands you my old, grody running kicks) Knock yourselves out!

Here, I've got a pair of wooden clogs. Perhaps they are just the 'therapy' needed.


I raise you a pair of Doc Marten's.

This whole family skeeves me out. Does make me wonder why Shill is so fascinated, though.

Roo is that the place PervBoy was "treated"? Cuz, other than all the warped psychos around, looked like a nice place place.
parsleysage
When Omarosa kept going on and on about being a famewhore as dissertation research I kept waiting for Dr. Shill to ask her what program she's enrolled in
I have been waiting impatiently to see this one last night. One thing that pisses me off--with all the innovations and technology today, why can't they invent a method that would allow you to reach into your TV set and bitch slap someone until their phony, lying head pops off? I could not sit still and watch that she-creature. I kept geting up and trolling the kitchen cupboards, she was just so god-awful I couldn't take more than 3 minutes of her at one time. You can tell that she was a bit put off that her usual schtick of charming the boxers off all the men she meets wan't working with either Trump or Shill. Shill was gunning for bear (or possum, more accurately). What a truly awful representation of womanhood, white black or chartreuse. Yuccchh.

HOWEVER--I was watching Shill and I hated someone on the show more than Shill. It's a good thing....

Judging from the info on the website, it doesn't look like this treatment center usually handles people with Makai's problem. He doesn't need to be doing yoga or art! He needs to be in prison!
bodwod
We're several months episodes behind here in Australia. Recently they showed what I think was part 4 of the Desp Housewives series and there was a woman called Michelle who came on with a secret so bad Dr P didn't show the tape as he was concerned she'd be in serious legal trouble if he did. Just curious, was there ever a followup to that show? If so, what was the deal?
DeepRed
bodwod, as far as I know there hasn't been a followup, yet. When that episode aired in the US there was lots of speculation here as to when and where there might be a followup - in a prime-time Shill special, perhaps? But IIRC no one had any real info about it, and nothing's been heard of since. So we may never know Michelle's deep dark secret; Shill's left us hangin'.

Other posters, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Hee. I would love to be able to have a button on the remote to give an electrical shock to some of the bozos that come on my tv.
loudfan

Yes. That was extremely frustrating. He shouldn't have had her on the show AT ALL if he wasn't going to make her spill her guts!

The most common guesses on this board were: 1. she runs a meth lab or 2. she's a housewife/hooker.
Petuni

You know, they work MUCH better if you put them in a sock and swing. Prevents you from having to find 'em later. (Not that I've EVER done a thing like that.)

The next time I see another update on Mikai, he has better be either arrested, in jail, or killed.


Thre guesses as to which one I'd prefer. What happened to the good ol' days when a group of men would take Mikai behind the barn and beat the shit out of him. Hell, that happened in my hometown and it wasn't but two or three years ago! This guy climbed into a window and was caught molesting a 2-year-old and the whole neighborhood got a piece of his ass. I don't think anyone was arrested, either. And that's the way it ought to be - cuz I guaran-damn-tee you all that there will be slow singin' and flower bringin' if someone tried to pull some shit like that in my family. We don't even believe in exerting ourselves too much. We're more of a shoot-to-kill kind of clan.

As someone who is slightly OCD, I was feeling very sorry for Liz until..........

They said that she has never been on medication because she and her mom did not believe in it? Wha????? Someone correct me if I am wrong, but isn't meds for OCD relatively mild compared to meds for depression or dyslexia? I took Paxil for a year because the worrying got out of hand after I got married. I, nor anyone else, did not notice a change in my personality beyond that the obsessive compulsive thoughts diminished.

I just don't get this girl. She wants to conquer it on her own, but 5 years is a long time to be a slave to a disease that has treatment options. Adolescents are notorious drama seakers. Do you think that she just likes the attention?
timeonmyhands
borokat, I was on Paxil for nearly 2 years and although it didn't change my personality it totally destroyed my sex drive and gain a lot of weight. It did help with the OCD though so I guess it's just a matter of deciding what it's worth to you. It's not a drug that affects your personality at all though so to me it sounds like an excuse that the girl is using. Not that I'm an expert.
Petuni

Nah, I think she's just in denial and wants to do it "on her own". Plenty of adults like that too. Some people don't seem to understand that it's simply not that easy and you can't just shut the thoughts off because you want to. (Of course, the cynical side of me says that her OCD will be curbed when she becomes an adult and has to pay the water bill...I keeeed, I keeeeed.)

And her mom needs to be slapped with TWoP Patented D-Batteries Sock o'Whompin'.
stinkylulu
lmwilker, I had the same questions about a year ago & determined that Fauxmorosa was a Ph.D. candidate in Communications at Howard (I believe she's in the Communications & Culture division). I suspect that has not changed but I don't know for sure. Sadly, the diss project she mentioned (depiction of black women on reality tv) actually seems sorta legit for the discipline. (IF ONLY she weren't such an asshat.)
feminaformosa
"Sexual abuse is more of the norm than the exception. It is in every home everywhere."


from Kendra.

I hate these people. Seriously. Sexual abuse is not in my home. It is just her way of legitimizing her family's situation, to make them seem normal.


No kidding. I thought "Are you insane????" when she said that. I have ONE friend who was sexually abused, so yes, chances are that you know someone who was, but it is NOT the norm.

It was not in my home. It was not in my husband's home. It was not in most of my friends' homes either.

My dad would have beat the shit out of anyone who pulled that kind of crap on me or my sister. Hell, he threatened to hire someone to beat up my sister's fiance back when he thought that he didn't have good intentions towards my sister. (it's all good now, though). I have always worried that if something happened to me, my mom, or sister, my dad would be rotting in jail b/c he shot whoever did it.

And I also noticed that Oprah was ALSO about child molesters. Was it some kind of an awareness day or something?

What is the matter with people???

Looking in from the outside, it would seem that nobody would choose to be that miserable and have their life so limited but I think that Liz is so enmeshed in her rituals that the idea of giving them up through medication must terrify her more than her OCD.

It's bizarre but it seems like she is has convinced herself (chemical imbalances make the ridiculous seem logical) that the devil she knows (OCD) is better than the devil that she doesn't know (medicated and life as a functioning adult with responsibilities beyond praying in traffic).

That's whats wrong with todays system. Instead of trying to fix or at least help child molestors and other criminals solve and correct their behavior, we throw them in a jail cell. Say he does go to jail, when he gets out- how is his behavior any different if he didnt deal the with problem? He'll go back in society and find more girls to fuck. He needs a combination of both captivity and professional help.

OCD show- what the hell does Phil know about OCD that these people thought they could get help from him about? They spent half the show explaining how the girl dealt with everyday life, then Phil didn't give her any way to help other than telling her to take medication.
bbug
I get what you're saying about prisons, but child molesters have a very high rate of re-offending, so I think the solution is longer sentences. I don't think they should be inflicted on the public, especially in a case like Mikai's, where he's admitted to victimizing more than one girl. He should be institutionalized and away from children, either in jail or in some kind of mental hospital, because it's not like girls that small can defend themselves and if someone's life has to get ruined, it should be his. Prisons are overcrowded and there are problems with them-- the gov't should look into reform measures and seriously consider decriminalizing marijuana-- but child molestors should do time and lots of it.

That family is so messed up, it's like they have no protective instinct for their daughter. Their son has a problem, yeah, but he needs to suffer some consequences for his actions. They can still support and love him, and hope he gets beyond this (I think it's unlikely, but hopefully he can be rehabilitated) but they have to keep him away from their daughter and other young kids. Also, it seems like the more time he spends with specialists who study/treat other individuals with his problem, the more likely he is to get better. Why would they even consider letting him back home?

I never understand families like theirs...I remember when the Unabomber's brother turned him in, one of my teachers said "I would never hand over a family member!" All I could think was "If your brother was crazy as a bedbug, living in filth, completely paranoid, and blowing people up, you wouldn't be interested in getting him some help and bringing closure to the victims' families? Nice priorities!" I feel the same way about Mikai's parents. There's loyalty and then there's creepy and wrong.
meisja
Could OCD girl's reluctance to medicate have anything to do with her religious "inclinations"?

I am loving the recommended sock full of batteries, I hope that one stays in my mind for future imaginings when times are tough.
lotusbear
I did feel bad for OCD girl but as someone who has OCD herself (definitely NOWHERE near as severe as hers), I can understand not wanting to give up certain habits/behaviors because you really think these rituals are helping you. But, part of OCD is realizing that your little "neuroses" are pretty stupid and useless and for some reason I don't necessarily see her understanding that at all. I get the feeling that she thinks that OCD is some sort of fate that she's been given and that it's something she'll never have control of.

I'm fully aware of the set of "rules" that I live my life by, but would never think to let them prevent my loved ones from living their lives the way they like and if it ever got to that point, I would be on medication in a flash. She is seriously chemically imbalanced, and a bit of help from some sort of med might help if she were open to trying them. A lot of the meds cause loss of libido but I wouldn't worry about that with her because she probably doesn't do premarital sex.

Ha! I couldn't help but notice the sweet deal she's got at home- looked like a nice bedroom suite, a big ass SUV (didn't she say she's gone through 3 or 4 cars b/c they keep getting "contaminated"? It must be nice to have a pa who can keep replacing your cars when they get icky). She also mentioned going through at least 10 towels a day- at some point, she's going to have to go to more serious measures (like the medication that was brought up) if she wants to get better- b/c that sort of behavior can only last so long before the family gets tired of it.

I hate it when she laughs with that gaping maw of a mouth.

God help us all if she really gets her own talk show. It'll be the ultimate of car accidents that you don't want to watch but can't help.

I got the weirdest vibe from the Dad of OCD girl. When they were talking about him having a Navy Seal grab her force her into rehab. Not that she didn't need it but I got the distinct feeling that maybe he isn't as understanding as it seemed when the cameras are not rolling.

Thoguht it was funny to was Phil was like don't you want to have a normal life, get married have kids. . . with no mention of a career or anything else.
borokat
My first knee jerk reaction to putting Mikai in prison for a long time, was, one of disagreement. And let me explain. I look at him and I see a 19 year old kid. I have had so many probationers who have done wrong, violent, dangerous things, and they only get a few months in jail. So, I have been conditioned to think that 20 years would be way too much time for this little punk.

But then I went to check on poor LilB who is having a hard time of it right now due to allergies. And I thought about the possibility of Mikai molesting and hurting my son, which made my stomach turn. He should not have access to the general public, period.

But then another disturbing thought popped up. I feel so strongly about protecting LilB from pedophiles like Mikai. Why the hell do his parents not feel the same? They have a houseload of kids in their house. How did they let this happen?
Esser
borokat, I feel exactly the same way. These parents seem to have a weird tunnel vision going on. I mean, what about the other girls he molested, the girls outside the family? If I were their parents, I'd bring up charges, and if for whatever reason I couldn't, I'd take their asses to civil court.

So I'm watching the 500 episodes show. I don't watch too often unless it's the FUFs, the Mikai story, or the family where the mom is looking for her 2 kids and the dad won't say where they are. I know Kitty is a botox queen and all that, but getting a glimpse of her today.... dang, the whole top half of her face doesn't even move, does it? Jesus.

Dr. Shill's 500th Show!!! What a crapfest waste of an hour...much like the other 499.
BlkChile401
Did anybody find something strangely odd about the guests behavior on the 500th show celebration? The FUF1 family seemed a bit uncomfortable. And it seemed as though they were still going through problems maybe that is why I found them to be acting extremely odd.

And the lady who lost all the weight and was given the workout equipment seemed as though she coudn't care less about the gifts. Did Dr. Phil piss her off before the show?
BetyBee
Yeah and the lady who's seen all 500 shows thus earning (the hard way, IMO) a new car barely registered excitement. Nor did Katherine when given her new Olympus camera (whoopie). Dr. Phil is a big Kid Rock fan? and what was BBJ wearing? The whole thing was just weird - no surprise there.
nicepebbles
I just saw the show. I like DP and RM and the kids. (what? don't look at me like that!)

Why was RM wearing high-waters? I don't think the place was going to flood anytime soon.

Yeah and the lady who's seen all 500 shows thus earning (the hard way, IMO) a new car barely registered excitement. Nor did Katherine when given her new Olympus camera (whoopie).


Word! What was up with that? Ungrateful much?
limey4
and what was BBJ wearing?


I was wondering that myself. Does anyone know what the writing meant on that travesty of a blazer? Also...did anyone catch Jay's harem sitting with him? (the playmate, Dahm triplets) his girlfriend was right next to him and the other two were sitting behind. They even did a close up reaction shot of one of them.

I loved it! Robin and her wholesome family values with her two perfect sons (Jordan always looks like he doesn't want to be there)......and the three skanky sisters. Ahhh...nothing like a future daugher-in-law you can look up naked pictures of on the internet (I am sure Jordan (and probably Phil) already have) to complete their perfect family unit.

Yep. There was talk around town that if he told where the kids were, he might somehow get leniency in this gun case. But he wouldn't give it up. Scumbag. Here's a local article:

I always get the feeling Jordan doesn't ever want to be there when we see him on camera. I must say, I find him adorable, maybe for that reason. Who knew?

The 500th show was pretty much a waste of time and I thought everyone seemed really uncomfortable through the whole thing, especially the staff. They were probably thinking oh man now we have to honor this moron after working for him?
Maybelline
I missed it! What was the update on Alex? Is she knocked up again?

I especially liked how Dr. Phil and his family did the usual walk-out thing at the end, except he left his staff standing out there. Shouldn't he have stuck around and at least pretended to chat it up with them during credits, or something?
bedroom dancing
Man, I really wanted an update on the other Dr. Phil family. You know, the one with the mormon wife who kept cheating on her husband and then got pregnant AGAIN. And their daughter who, according to Dr. Shill, was America's Sweetheart. I really wonder what they're up to.

I think that's why I'm a little in love with him.

Oh, BBJ, you need a new jacket. Badly.
rml24601
goodglory, I'm w/you on Jordan! He *so* didn't want to be there- the half-assed hug he gave pops, the too-cool-for-all-this look on his face...

I also wondered about BBJ's hideous blazer- he must be shilling some company/product, as it looked like logo was scrawled on it.
loudfan
In defense of the trivia contest winner, she was wiping away tears when she sat in the car. I think she was just really, really nervous. Sure, we're all accustomed to seeing the people on "The Price is Right" who jump up and down when they win a year's supply of Turtle Wax, but remember, there are screeners who go through the audience specifically looking for those kinds of hyper-enthusiastic people. I have some personal experience with this -- Mr. loudfan once won a prize on a game show, a nice one, and I didn't go nuts until after the show!

It's interesting how men with big butts always wear jackets to cover 'em up. Arsenio Hall always did the same thing. Obviously BBJ is following in his footsteps.

I have to say I was a little disappointed by how much product placement and shilling there was on the 500th show. I know, I know, why should it be any different from the other 499... but I wish someone had forced him to make it a little bit klassier. Oh well, at least now I am assured that The Shill & I don't have similar taste in music.
borokat
She was probably wiping away tears because she was mentally figuring up the tax bill on that baby.

God, what a waste of an hr honoring this bastard reaching 500 episodes. I hope that we don't have to worry about him getting to 1,000 episodes.

Dr. Phil is a big Kid Rock fan?


And did anyone hear the lyrics? I was in such disbelief that he was there, then the song....um, escorts, booze? Anyone know what he sang/screeched?

Hee!

She's not knocked up again, yet... She does have a boyfriend and they say she's applying to colleges.

Man, I really wanted an update on the other Dr. Phil family. You know, the one with the mormon wife who kept cheating on her husband and then got pregnant AGAIN. And their daughter who, according to Dr. Shill, was America's Sweetheart. I really wonder what they're up to.

I'd love an FUF2 update, but I figured they're are so beyond repair that Shill doesn't want to be associated with them anymore. I wonder if the show still pays for the treatment of their one son?

Me too! As DrCher said, they're probably beyond repair... I hate the way some of the most desperate and ridiculous people fail to have any follow-ups. What ever happened to that severely anorexic girl from Australia? And back to the Mormon mother (the counselor!), I'm jonesing for news!

Good point. Even if it is an accomplishment, is it one worthy of sharing with the audience and wasting a whole hour for? Couldn't Phil just bought the staff pizza and called it a day?
