I know there are some practicing psychologists contributing to this thread. Maybe they can shed some light on it.

Dr. Phil talk show to end on daytime TV | CTV News
NEW YORK -Daytime television psychologist "Dr. Phil" McGraw says he plans to end his talk show after 21 years in the coming months, but viewers haven't seen the last of him.
"Dr. Phil" was the most prominent spinoff from Oprah Winfrey's show, which once dominated daytime TV. The Texan's program debuted in September 2002 after he'd been featured as a regular guest on Winfrey's.
"With this show, we have helped thousands of guest and millions of viewers through everything from addiction and marriage to mental wellness and raising children," McGraw said in a statement. "This has been an incredible chapter of my life and career, but while I'm moving on from daytime, there is so much more I wish to do."
The traditional broadcast TV season ends in spring; there was no date given for Phil's final show.

I watched the show a lot during its first few years so it's sad to see it go. I'm guessing He might want to retire as I checked and he's in his 70s now and has probably made a ton of money off the show.

It would be cool if he had a reunion of sorts from some of his most famous guests for his final show.

With Judge Judy and now Dr. Phil the trend seems to be to leave reruns on the air instead of replacing it with something new. Oprah would probably still be on the air if she'd seen how cheap and lazy the daytime broadcast TV market has become.
