Dr. Phil and Son Produce ‘The Moochers’
December 7, 2005
Dr. Phil McGraw and his son, Jay, are executive producing a new CBS primetime reality show called The Moochers, it was announced Tuesday.
The Eye Network has ordered six episodes of the series, Daily Variety reported.
The premise is helping people get rid of friends and relatives who have overstayed their welcome, Variety said. The Moochers will get help as well — mainly jobs and their own apartments.
The elder McGraw, who already has his own popular daytime TV talk show, will not be regular but will appear on camera when appropriate, Variety said.
