Highly Inappropriate 'Would you rather' questions


On yesterday's show (10/15/12), during an odd segment called "Would you rather . . . ?", the audience was allowed to Ask Dr. Oz some personal questions about whether he would rather do X or Y. I guess the purpose of this segment is to make Dr. Oz more human or approachable. As silly as that is, I guess that's fine. But the questions that were asked of him were absurd, and frankly highly personal an inappropriate:

For example, Dr. Oz was asked if he would rather have sex with his wife 3 times per week or dish out health advice to Americans. Dr. Oz responded sheepishly that he would choose sex with his wife, which generated laughs and giggles from the largely female audience. I don't believe Dr. Oz's sex life should be fodder for his talk show. I do think that is highly personal and crosses the line of inappropriate content.

Dr. Oz was also asked if he would rather do his show naked or something else I forget. What kind of question is this? Oz responded that he would do his last show naked. Good God. A. How inappropriate. B. Does anyone really want to see that?

I'm appalled.
