The Jerry Springer Show (1991–2018)
1/10
Idiotic and obviously much of it is fake.
7 January 2021
Apparently Jerry has run through every trashy geek, stripper, transgender and/or uneducated pinhead in America, and can't find any more guests because there haven't been any new episodes in nearly four years (since 2017). But society will survive (unless it is ruined by social media and the scum who run the major platforms). It seems like 90% of the "stories" presented by the tragically dysfunctional people on the Springer show were blatantly fake; they sounded like they had memorized their lines and recited them sounding like a grade school theatrical production. The famous "fights" featured mostly screechy yelling, hair-pulling and wild windmilling, which is funny because the women on the show talk so tough but cannot fight. They run their mouths about how they're going to beat some "b-word's" rear end, but when the offending female struts onstage and kicks off her shoes, it turns into a laughably awkward, slapping, hair-pulling disaster as the crowd goes nuts with delight. The men are little more skilled in the pugilistic arts because nobody has ever landed an actual punch In the history of the show. The most pathetic are the guys who tear off their shirts to intimidate their foe but merely reveal a pathetically underdeveloped physique.

The funniest part of each show, when there is time, is near the end, when all that episode's "guests" are assembled in chairs onstage and members of the studio audience are given the chance to ask them questions. More often than not, the "lucky" audience member either shows her breasts (to everyone but those watching on TV) in exchange for a cheap plastic beaded necklace, or they simply insult the guests who are most overweight by trying to be clever and making a fat joke. It's the bottom of the intellectual barrel... until each episode closes with "Jerry's Final Thought".

This show was so stupid I wonder if anybody has even realized it's gone. But the worst thing The Jerry Springer Show is guilty of is the spinoff show featuring the baldheaded former Springer security guy, Steve Wilko, the biggest loudmouth of them all.
