The Jerry Springer Show Ceases Production

*ZariusTwo* · 06-22-2018, 03:11 PM

...Bet you thought it ended ages ago

Frankly, with as much of a backlog of episodes, nobody can tell which one's a repeat or a new instalment unless you go wayyy back to the original set and when Wilkos was just a bouncer

I honestly thought i was just watching reruns all this time

Well, there's always Jeremy Kyle clips.

I find this kind of amusing since I've been hypnotized by Dr Phil on Youtube. Which I've realized is pretty tame compared to Springer even when things are absolutely insane.

It'll be curious if he gets back into politics.

The only episode of his I've ever seen is the one where Xander from Buffy walked out on him

I watched a few a very long time ago and yes ZariusTwo, I did think it had ended. Everyone talks about Jeremy Kyle now, I never watch it though.

I thought Kyle's U.S show tanked

We still have to put up with him over here at 9: 25 in the morning

Yeah I meant over here. JS seems to have been forgotten in recent years.

Never really liked it, though I watched a few episodes here and there on tv3 in the early 00s. I remember Jerry Springer being on The Simpsons and Sabrina, the teenage witch.

No, I didn't. In fact I didn't even know what that was until I saw this thread.

Seems like it was a crash tv show that did things for shock value. That kind of programming was common in the 90s

Surprised you kept it off your radar, it was quite big back in the day. Used to even be shown in peak afternoon hours when us kids were at school.

Well not every show becomes available or easily available in every country. Especially not one that's from the 90s, a time where there was no youtube, netflix or anything of the sort. If it didn't air in your country or tv channels you had at your home, then there's no way you could know about it.

There was a lot of promotional media for the show at the time...VHS, a movie called "Ringmaster", there was even a parody opera based on the show.

Well I don't think the show ever aired where I live,and if it did it mustn't have been very successful or it aired in an obscure channel that was lost in the shuffle of foreign cable channels. So that opera and movie you mentioned probably didn't air/show here either.

USA has a lot of big tv shows. Most countries don't have enough tv channels and timeslots to fill in with every major american tv show. Guess this one missed the party here. It happens.
