Less that a week after Jerry Springer announced that would not be back to host the 4th season of America's Got Talent, NBC announced that Mr Mariah Carey aka Nick Cannon will be filling his shoes according to Variety.
That is def an interesting choice to go with Judges Sharon Osbourne, Piers Morgan and David Hasselhoff. It will be interesting to see how it all turns out.
Personally I think he will do an OK job, but just not sure how well he will mesh with the others how are already on the show?

America’s Got Talent, but it doesn’t have Jerry Springer anymore

Jerry Springer announced today that he will not be back for the fourth season of America’s Got Talent. According to AP he said that because of previous commitments with his syndicated show and an unknown stage show, he will not have time for the show. I am truthfully going to miss his sincereness and the warmth he added to the show. In fact without him as the host and the decline of the show during last season, I am not sure I am going to be back.
He is the second host to leave the show, the first was Regis Philbin. The show also replaced Judge Brandy Norwood with Sharon Osbourne when she left after the first season. I think NBC should take that as a hint season 4 might not have been that good of an idea.

Jerry Springer dances his way to Days of our Lives
July 3rd, 2007 under Dancing with the Stars, Jerry Springer, TV Soaps. [ Comments: none ]

Jerry Springer will be taping an episode of Days of our Lives on July 9th that will air on July 27th according to TV Guide. Springer who is in LA filming America's Got Talent will be playing a Las Vegas High Roller who teaches Nick blackjack and about girls. Nick lost his virginity to the mother of the girl who lost her virginity to him and those are the only two women he has been with, so that sounds likes a Springer episode to me. In fact Springer feels the same way about his guest appearance on the show, "In light of the fact that I deal with real-life soap operas every day, it's a total thrill to actually be able to appear on one — particularly of the stature of Days of our Lives." I can't wait to see him on the show with Nick because those scenes are going to be so cute and so funny!

Jerry Springer Got Talent

NBC announced today that Jerry Springer will take over as host of America's Got Talent from Regis Philbin. "I've been around some of America's most talented individuals on my talk show for the last 16 years, so I'll feel right at home hosting 'America's Got Talent,' said Springer. "I love the show and look forward to discovering the best performers from across the country." Executive Producer Simon Cowell had this to say, "I am absolutely thrilled that Jerry has agreed to host the next season of our show for a number of reasons, he is the perfect person for this show. I wish him (and he is going to need it!) the best of luck." I love Springer, so it will be great to see what he is going to do the with show! Regis was a great host, but I think Springer will be just as good if not better! Now if only they could get new Judges…hint hint hint.

Jerry Springer’s bodyguard secures his own show
February 19th, 2007 under Jerry Springer, Talk Shows. [ Comments: none ]

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.
