Maury Worse Than Jerry?

You gotta be kidding me!!!!

Home from work today and for a change, I was sitting here looking at daytime TV. I've seen jerry Springer's "circus" of a show in the past and have found it hard to beloeve these people/situations are for real.

Happened across Maury Povich's show this morning and am sitting her stunned? Is this really what people watch during the day? Are these people for real???

Today's episode is about women, trying to find their "baby daddy". The first woman just had a 5th man tested...each test was an appearance for her on the show. WTF????? How many men was she with during that "time"?

The first episode she was on, she told her husband he prolly WASN'T the father, and that his cousin was most likely the responsible donor...neither one tested positive. Guys 3 and 4 were two other episodes and again, NOT the father. Today's "donor", after much dramatization, was once again, NOT the father. Does this ho even have a clue? LOL

The next woman was up to DNA test # 12! YIKES!!!!! Oh...so sad, looks like # 12 is also NOT the father! This is totally ridiculous.

I don't know which is worse, the possibility that any of these "situations" could be true, or that people will watch this crap on television on a regular basis....enough watching for him to have a show on television.

SHEESH!!!

Well, time to move on to more productive activities...nap time! LOL

Randy

My roommates in college used to sit on the couch all afternoon and watch Jerry Springer. I couldn't stand it. (This was before the ban on fighting.) Is he even still on? I had a full-time job and was taking 16 credit-hours, so I didn't have the time...

Four years ago when I was out of work for a bit they had the same exact type of show. They literally had this chick come back to the show 4 or 5 times. Maybe it's a repeat. Incredible.

Didn't he get thrown out of office in Cincinatti for using city money to pay prostitutes?

Actually, it was on for less than 10 minutes, believe it or not. apparently they had a whole "cast of characters" they were putting up for display. But, I suppose you're right, this 10 minutes really seemed like "quite a bit".

I would have had it on for less time, but I started writing this post, which led me into the guest with 12 tests.

Randy, I'm a little surprised. So, was number 5 the daddy?

LMAO!!!

Clinton, just goes to show, truth is stranger than fiction! If I recall correctly, no, # 5 was not the daddy. Neither was # 12 for the next guest/freak.

Anyone who could be a habitual viewer of those shows wouldn't feel it!

I don't waste my time watching this nonsense, but I heard Jerry admit on a radio show talking briefly about how he pays people to act on the show.
