Before Jerry Springer was known as the father of trash talk shows, he pleaded with the US Senate to give 18 years old the right to vote. How impressive of a speaker was he when he was 26 in 1970?
It has been rough 24 hours for daytime television. In that time, not one, not two, but three of their shows were canceled, according to Deadline.
The first show to get the news was Dr. Oz’s replacement, The Good Dish. That was followed by Jerry Springer’s Judge Jerry. And the final one came today, and it is The Nick Cannon Show, as was rumored yesterday.
They join The Wendy Williams Show that got the news last month.
Mornings are going to look a lot different in the Fall.
Wendy Williams has been struggling with health issues since September. Because of that, she has not been able to host her show this season. Since the show must go on, they have been using guests hosts to fill in for her.
Today, they announced who will be hosting the show for the next two weeks. Michael Rapaport starts things off on Monday and will be there for the whole week. Then the following Monday, Bill Bellamy takes over until that Wednesday. For the last two days of the week, Jerry Springer and Steve Wilkos will share the purple throne. I am looking forward to the latter.
When it comes to Williams, I doubt she will be back before the New Year. It will be interesting to see if she will even be back in January.
Remember when you were home sick from school or work, there was nothing to watch so you watched The Jerry Springer Show? It was like a train wreck you could not look away from because the guests are train wrecks. It is why we loved it!
Well after 27 years and a movie, daytime’s greatest show might be no more. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the talk show was not picked up for another season, so The CW decided to save it. Good news, so why did I say the show might not be anymore? Because they only are airing the repeats. The CW has the option to pick up more episodes, but as of now they have not ordered them.
Don’t they know the world needs this to make it a better place? Because no matter how bad things are, it is not as bad as the guests on Jerry Springer. Am I right? #SaveJerrySpringer
Back in the ’80s and ’90s, Jerry Springer and Sally Jesse Raphael were two of biggest talk show hosts on television. Now 20 years later, the two of them met up and took this photo together. Which has me wishing that since he still has his show on the, he asks her to co-host with him. Could you imagine? They could tag team psycho-analyze the guests. It would be the best thing to happen to talk shows since the start of talk shows. Don’t you agree?
