★★★★★Adele B· Dec 20, 2024
Prime time really takes the Dr. Phil shows up a notch. The shows are in-depth and informative without prejudice like so many shows. Thank you, Phil McGraw, for starting Merit TV. Wish more of my friends and family would watch it. I tell everyone.

If you want the Truth about ALL THE NEWS THEN WATCH MERIT NEWS
★☆☆☆☆Dawn Alter· Dec 25, 2025
I used to love this app because I can't get Merit where I live. For months now, all I can get when I open the app on my phone and on the tv is a 1-minute trailer that plays over and over and over. No content. Why? I check it occasionally and still only the trailer. Did they take it from free to pay to view? I don't know what the problem is. Maybe Dr Phil decided the app isn't worth it and just isn't updating it anymore.

What happened to the app? I used to be able to get on and watch videos, and now it doesn't do anything but show me a short Dr Phil Prime Time video and when I do a search it doesn't show anything.
