Jerry Springer’s security guard Steve Wilkos has landed his own talkshow. The bald-headed, ex-Chicago police officer will be "offering advice and doling out his own version of justice" in the daily one-hour show, which is due to air in the US from the Autumn. The as-yet untitled series will be filmed in front of a live studio audience at WMAQ-TV Chicago, the home of The Jerry Springer Show for the past sixteen years. Richard Dominick, ep of Jerry, will also serve as ep on the new show. Wilkos has become synonymous with the show since he joined in 1993, and has even filled in as guest host in Jerry’s absence over the past two seasons. "It’s truly incredible that I first came to work part-time with Jerry and Richard some 14 years ago and here I am now getting my own show," said Wilkos. "I believe my Marine training of what is right and what is wrong and the street smarts I picked up as a police officer, will assist me in helping my guests get through the hard times they face each day." "Steve and I have been working on this project for many years and it’s very exciting to see it come to fruition," said Dominick. "If you are rich and need help, you can call a lawyer or a doctor. For ordinary people, when they have a problem, they call the police and now they can call Steve. America needs a hero and now they have one." Springer added: "I am thrilled that Steve is getting his own shot and the fact that we will be paired back-to-back in many markets starting next season will make for a very strong lineup. The question now is, how well can he dance?"

I see that show lasting as long as the marriages of the guests who appear on Jerry Springer do…a week.

US TV veteran BARBARA WALTERS feels "betrayed" by her THE VIEW co-host STAR JONES REYNOLDS following her shock on-air announcement of her departure from the talk show. Walters, 74, was stunned when Jones Reynolds, 44, told viewers and her fellow presenters she would be leaving the ABC program after nine years yesterday morning (27JUN06), because the announcement was planned for Thursday (29JUN06). Speaking to camera, Jones Reynolds said, "Something’s been on my heart for a little bit, and after much prayer and counsel I feel like this is the right time to tell you that the show is moving in another direction for its tenth season and I will not be returning as co-host next year." And in this week’s (ends30JUN06) issue of People magazine, Jones Reynolds says, "What you don’t know is that my contract was not renewed for the tenth season. I feel like I was fired." Walters, who created and produces the show, says, "I love Star and I was trying to do everything I possibly could – up until this morning when I was betrayed – to protect her. "I would have loved for Star to have left and not said ‘I was fired,’ and not make it look like the program was somehow being cruel to her." Walters admits ABC network bosses declined to renew Jones Reynolds’ contract after research showed audiences were turned off by the former lawyer’s dramatic weight loss and her 2004 marriage to AL REYNOLDS, where she plugged companies on air in exchange for freebies for her wedding. Walters adds, "We tried to talk them out of it and we tried to give Star time to redeem herself in the eyes of the audience, and the research just kept getting worse."

This is going to get uglier than Star Jones post-weight loss.
