Maury Povich went on TikTok and asked his fans, “Tell me you want to be on The Maury Show without telling me you want to be on The Maury Show.” Needless to say, a lot of people told him that without telling him.
People like Deangelo Lytton who shared a video of himself with his daughter. Can you guess why he wants to be on the show? I don’t think he needs to go on the daytime talk show. Looking at the two of them together, you can tell he is the father.
Many of you have heard of Dr. Miami. He is a plastic surgeon who puts some of his surgeries on social media. Did you know his real name is Michael Salzhauer, and he is an Orthodox Jew? You can learn that and more about him in the Discovery+ documentary that is streaming now.
In They Call Me Dr. Miami, you will see how his family life is different than the one he has in front of the camera. At home, he is a religious man who takes care of his family. He is also a lot calmer than his on-camera persona that we know so well.
That bigger than life and wacky persona is something that he has been criticized for by other doctors and his family for different reasons. The documentary talks to both sides, and we find out why they have a problem with him having fun in front of the camera.
Salzhauer explains why he acts like that. He also reveals why he started posting his surgeries online for people to watch. Believe it or not, it had nothing to do with becoming famous.
The plastic surgeon also shares with us why he chose to go into this field of medicine. It has to do with his wife that he met in his college. Eva Salzahauer is the person who knows him best, and she gets candid with the cameras. She talks about who he is at home with their five children, how they became orthodox together, why he does some of the things that he does, and if she thinks he is vain.
Dr. Miami admits he can be vain and shares what plastic surgery he has done to himself. We actually see him get a procedure done on camera.
Being on camera is one part of his social media world. He also needs someone to run it. We get to see what that job entails as they go around his offices with a camera.
Since nothing is left out, we see him meet with patients. He then goes over the surgery with them before getting it done. While he has never lost a patient, he comes close to losing one while they are filming him one day. We get to hear what happens when one patient stops breathing, and they have to try to save her life.
Salzhauer got into this business to help people. One of the things we see in the documentary is how he is trying to help a procedure called the Brazilian Butt Lift be less deadly. He has not lost any patients to it, but he has known people who have.
While he wants to make people feel good about themselves, it is actually a problem with his religion. Did you know in Judaism that a person is not allowed to get plastic surgery? The body is supposed to leave Earth as it came into it. At one point, he has a philosophical discussion about it with another Jewish man.
It is not only that which could be a problem for him as an Orthodox Jewish man, but also the way he acts. When you watch him on social media, you don’t think of him as someone who observes Shabbot and being Kosher, but he is.
He is not just Dr. Miami; he is so much more. That is what makes this look into his life so interesting. The same way he gets to see people’s most innermost thoughts about their bodies, we get to see what he is really like when the cameras are not rolling. OK, they are rolling to show us that, but you know what I mean.
They Call Me Dr. Miami is a candid look at a man who is so much more than what he lets us see. I wish we get to know more people like we get to know Salzhauer in this documentary.
One last note. After watching this doc, I still plan on going to go to him if I ever decide to get some work done. In fact, it made my decision even more clear. I just better decide before he retires because he also reveals when he is planning on doing that.
Before Rami Malek was an Emmy and Oscar winner, he earned his SAG card on Gilmore Girls. He looks the same now as he did when he was 22 in that 2004 episode.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine ran on Fox for five seasons before it got cancelled. Then, NBC picked it up. Today, the network announced that this upcoming eighth season will be its last one.
“I’m so thankful to NBC and Universal Television for allowing us to give these characters and our fans the ending they deserve,” said executive producer Dan Goor. “I feel incredibly lucky to have worked with this amazing cast and crew for eight seasons. They are not only among the most talented people in the business, they are all good human beings who have become a family. But most of all, I feel lucky that we have had the best fans in the world. Fans who literally saved us from cancellation. Fans who fill us with joy. Ending the show was a difficult decision, but ultimately, we felt it was the best way to honor the characters, the story and our viewers. I know some people will be disappointed it’s ending so soon, but honestly, I’m grateful it lasted this long. Title of my sex tape.”
