No wonder he gets mad easily.

The Olivia Munn character in The Newsroom had two Ph.D.s
-
Two PhDs is a thing that does happen very occasionally, usually in association with a radical shift of field.
-
I've only heard of it in the hard sciences.
-
Like I said, it's rare (and given the structure of careers it's probably more rare now than it once might have been). The most prominent example in my field is Harrison White, PhD Physics (MIT, 1955), and PhD Sociology (Princeton, 1960).
-
The only people I've know with multiple Ph.D.s had one from an obscure foreign university and another from a US school.
-
It’s not common but it does happen, eg
@docfreeride has two PhDs (physical chem, philosophy) from Stanford. She’s not a giant green rage monster, though. (Also, and not for nothing, most every foreign university is “obscure” to an American.) -
And, to be fair, I probably wouldn’t have gotten the second one but for the partner who urged me to do what made me happy...
-
... AND the fact that I recognized a PhD in a science would not be a sufficient qualification to properly do PHILOSOPHY of science.

According to Age of Ultron at least one of them is in something called "bio-organics" so I'm guessing a few are from the same school Hunter S Thompson got his doctorate.
