The Dr. Oz Show/YMMV

• Television Is Trying to Kill Us: Doctor Oz seems to have a frequent-passenger card on the Health Topic Bandwagon. If a current rumor or half-fact-checked news story is circulating newspapers or the internet, you can guarantee that it'll be on his show. Everything from "This herbal supplement will cure everything" that later turn out to be little more than flavor-enhancements to ACTUAL cures, if not outright placebos (acai berries most recently spring to mind) to scare-tactics like "PLASTIC CONTAINERS GIVE YOU CANCER!" .... If you leave them out in the sunlight for a month, then microwave them repeatedly, then drink the stuff that's been in there the entire time.
