Brandon do you have a support group at your side should you decide to clean up your life and start from scratch?

Ah, but you can watch one while the other is recording. 

Learn your recording capabilities.  If it's a simple VCR, then that's the easiest, just read your manual.  You may have to go to an electronics dept. and pick up an adapter. 

Where I live Dr. Phil moved to NBC and I had to do some adjusting.  Well, I use Living Room TV for Fav shows for recording and my Bedroom for LMN and Dr. Phil recording.

If I'm cooking, I watch whatever across my stove in the Den.  That's my rule.  If I cook and they want to eat, I'm watching what I want or I'll stop cooking.

OR change cable companies and you can do endless things with just one TV.

I'm not really obsessed, I just have a few programs I like to watch without interruption.

Good luck.

All I have seen so far is the online slideshow version (our market doesn't get Dr.P. until 5 PM ET), but I wanted to get this post up.

Glad to hear that Amanda seems to have turned her attitude around. Hopefully, Linda & dad (I forget his name) have improved as well. I hope the turnaround is genuine...she doesn't have to be a clone or parrot of her parents (God forbid!), but she needed to learn that a household, like society in general, has rules that need to be followed, even when we don't like them. 

One thing I am curious about: The slideshow version mentions in 1 sentence "[Amanda] is no longer dating the boyfriend...". Who ended it, Amanda or George, i.e., did she see the light, or did he dump her as soon as the taping was finished b/c of (a) the trouble heaped upon him and his and/or (b) she was no longer around to gratify him sexually? 

        Brandon,

                       I wish you nothing but the very best life  has to offer.What a lucky young man you are to have such wonderful parents[it's heart breaking to see them in so much pain].Brandon you need to get Fair Dinkum with your recovery,pull out all stops,what ever it takes,just do it.  I'm on the other side of the world and i care about you.On the Dr Phil show today  in Australia,Dr Phil was interviewing you in  jail,it was a bit of a shock,i really thought you beat your habit.I'm pleased your out now ,and with all the resources at your disposal I certainly  hope you  make full use of them,and beat this once and for all.Good Luck, Brandon.  I'll be thinking of you ,and your  family.

This story really bothered me. Women should have more respect for themselves than to badmouth people on the internet. Why can't they confront their boyfriends face to face? The fact that they remain anonyous while they post names and pictures is unfair. Everyone gets their heart broken. That's a fact of life. Deal with it. I feel very bad for Todd. How would these women react if there was a website for men to rate or spread rumors about women and post their pictures with comments relating to whether or not their boobs were real or how they are in bed?

The woman who runs the website sickens me. She seems just as bitter as the women doing the posting.

Bottom line it makes women look bad.

Sounds like you're at work and obviously can't watch GH while Dr. Phil is being taped. You gotta get yourself another VCR.  I'm not too thrilled with the change either.  Now when Dr. Phil comes on at 3:00 p.m., I feel like I need to eat breakfast again!!  Guess we'll adjust in time.  Toodles... 

I can really relate to Brandons family. My mother and father got divorced when I was 12 and later that year she started dating again. She met a guy that was a crack addict. Which was totally unlike her she never used drugs.She feel head over heels. He finally took her for everything she had and much more. Me and mother lost our bond and she continued to use 6 years later. Finally this year 3-4 months before my son was born she quit using and has not relasped to this day. She quit so she could be allowd to see her grandson. Thank you God for your help. If it wasn't for the gift of God my mother still would be using and I wouldn't have my gift I cherish today. So yes addiction is hard to beat. With family,love, support you can over the impossible. Thanks for making differences in peoples lives dr.phil your my fav! (THANKS TO OUR TROOPS)
