It’s crazy how profitable this format of television is. Even now with shows like love is blind and love island, the messier and exaggerated they are, the more popular. Amazing video btw!!
i used to watch jerry springer everyday with my grandma when my mom was at work, and this entire video and the mentions of the jitterbug and mesothelioma commercials brought me wayyyy back! i hope to see your channel grow, this brought me a lot of nostalgia
I've been to tapings of both Jerry Springer and Maury lol, so both are my guilty pleasures. And I watched both shows a lot with family, which now that I think back on it, is kind of wild. My family was fairly buttoned up except for when it came to those two things for some reason. (also commenting bc I'm surprised this channel has fewer than 50k followers - I love this kind of content and hope others find it soon!)
these "Trash/Crash TV" shows were either: before or after soap operas (in the afternoons): Morton Downey Jr., Richard Bey; (Phil) Donahue, Oprah (Winfrey), Jenny Jones, Sally Jessy Raphael, the Ricki Lake show, Geraldo (Rivera) (he was trying to find Al Capone's vault), Maury Povich ("A Current Affair"), and Jerry Springer show. Other people who had their own shows: Live with Regis and Kathie Lee (Gifford); the Steve Wilkos show (Jery Springer's security guard guy); Rolonda Watts, Montell Williams, Rosie O' Donnell, and rapper/actor, Queen Latifah. Ricki ! Ricki ! Jerry ! Jerry !
Idk why but this is one of the most fascinating topics to me as a media person. Something about these shows is just so dystopian and dark and endlessly fascinating, especially the few ones that actually were real.
One segment you forgot from the Maury show was “Is it a Man or Woman?”. Where they would have cisgender women, transgender women, & drag queens stand on stage. Then the crowd would guess if they were assigned male or female at birth. Even back then I felt that was a crazy segment.
There's fundamentally no difference between 90s trash TV, more recent iterations of reality shows (as you mentioned), and people being fed to Lions for the entertainment of thousands in the Roman Coliseum. With social media, we can now all accuse strangers in real time and verbally ravage them ourselves from the comfort of our own bedrooms, rather than it purely being a spectator sport. Trash TV has always existed in one medium or another, and always will.
And now there’s a crossover from those shows to new trash. A creature named Angela Deem was skanking it up on Maury’s show several years ago and is now one of the most infamous monsters on TLC’s “90 Day Fiancé” franchise.
I have a good feeling about your channel. I think you could be another comfort channel people look forward to watching every week like Company Man or Tasting History. I definitely enjoy the chill editing and subdued music.
@pamelamays4186 Not only that Muary Provich used to host the tabloid type news magazine called A Current Affair on Fox 5 for years before he went into the talk show arena LOL! Maurys' early days on Daytime tv were more serious in tone and content. He used to dress up in a suit and tie remember that until maybe the early to mid 2000's starting dressing more casuel and switching the ton of his show from Children with tauret syndrome to who's the baby daddy LOL! 📺📼👶🙆
There's a 90s film entitled "Dark Side of the 90s: Trash TV Dirty and Deadly Talk." It shows talk show producers and their pressure and motives to try and get regular American guests on who are entertaining. It's a good film. I wish it were longer, though.
I watched it! They covered segments of music, sitcoms, and talk shows. It was so interesting to watch especially for me cuz I was a teen in the 90s and looking back, taking a deep analysis of that time made me realize just how naive I was as a 90 s teenager. Very good, entertaining, and interesting.
I remember Wally George! He was GREAT! I think he made an impact on television because he was such an offensive conservative. His shows and topics were so hilarious and entertaining.
I grew up in the 90s with the Jerry Springer show and was somewhat of a fan in the beginning but eventually became sick of it. There were about 2 minutes of the show where you could understand what people were saying and after that just a bunch of screaming, fighting, and throwing chairs. In order to follow a show I have to at least understand what's being said. It disgusted me that so many people loved it and found it entertaining. Maury Povich too. Same thing every day. Almost every episode was a paternity test episode. I needed variety to keep me interested.
The formula got pretty comical and ridiculous. I believe it reached a point where pretending to be sincere became more insincere, thus why these hosts eventually started mailing in their performances too. They’d just light the fuse and watch the bombs go off.
@@tymforhistory Let us not forget Steve Wilcos who was a security guard for Jerry who would later get his own talk show which Springer was executive producer of until his death in April of 2023. 🤔😢📺🙏
It seems each of these daytime talk shows got really stupid and fake, after a real life incident happened as a result of one of them, for instance, the incident involving the Jenny Jones Show.
Jenny Jones HERSELF SHOULD'VE BEEN IN PRISON for manipulating that man, which EVENTUALLY LED him to commit MURDER itself too as well okay @jayharvey7043.
My cousin was on Maury several times, it is real with an asterisk. The story is real but they are playing it up for the cameras. You get paid 100 bucks and have an all expenses paid vacation more or less. Flight,hotel,food and getting chauffeured in a limo. The most messed up part of Maury, the episodes dealing with phobias...they don't need to play up to the cameras.
I’m from NYC. So I went to a taping once when they filmed the show at the Pennsylvania Hotel across from MSG/Penn Station. It was a paternity test show. The guest pointed at me & said “That baby looks like homeboy in the front more than me”. Then Maury came over & asked if I ever been to Idaho. I said “Hell no!!!”.
I remember one particular guest had a fear of cotton balls! Maury then had these two guys in cotton ball suits chasing this poor guest all over the stage!
Ah, 90's trash tv. The joy of coming home from school and indulging. It always feels weird for me to share that my dad was on the Maury show lol. I have to specify it was NOT a paternity episode, dammit lol. He was a lawyer and his client was there to apologize about something, and I guess legally it was best to have him there with him. I'd love to find the episode again. I wonder if it's archived somewhere.
@@tymforhistory I so wish I did, and my dad passed so asking him won't help lol. I want to say it was right before Maury switched to doing mostly paternity tests. Maybe 95 or 96. I haven't really tried looking much because I don't know where to start.
sometimes i watch jerry springer episode and actually miss those times dumbass fake show was the top of our concerns and world wasn't on the brink of war
towards the end of his run long after it went 100% fake, Jerry Springer booked literal professional wrestlers (mainly from a deathmatch promotion called IWA Mid-South) to be guests on his show... so the rasslin connection is strong
I can see a lot of JJ influence with this video, especially the thumbnail (and the facial hair). I'll admit I'm not super familiar with Springer or Maury. The daytime trash TV spectacle I've seen the most of is Dr. Phil.
The Jerry Springer Show has over 15 years of Footage unseen.. We need it back as TV is now trash and it was at least funny.. See Jamie Dundee saying how none of it was real they would call him and ask for what thwy wanted
I had a drama teacher who said that he acted as a guest on one of these shows and the driver of the limo that the show sent him offered to whack the the other guest that he was having the “dispute” with. Allegedly, anyway.
I used to watch Maury more than the other shows. I remember tuning in when he had wild teen girls, obese babies, guests with bizarre phobias, or makeover shows. But when he did nothing but paternity tests on his show I stopped watching it.
Jery Springer was easy to see which stories were fake and meant to insult every chord of one's moral fiber. Pushing to see what new low they could bring the audience to.
I don’t think it’s disrespectful. Jerry Springer was a huge figure that represented talk shows in the 90s. It’s very reasonable to discuss on this kind of topic.
@@akaLaBrujaRoja I never cared for Mort. May he RIP too. But the difference is that Jerry Springer was never disrespectful to his guests and audiences, like Mort was. Nor was he ever loud, obnoxious, and brash like Mort. Jerry was always humble, respectful, and funny. Even though there was always chaos, and nonsense on his show, Jerry was always calm, and level headed.
I hate to burst the delicate snowflake bubble, 90s so-called trash TV is better than anything currently airing on television. But really though, do you always have to talk crap about the 90s? Look I get it people constantly bring up the 90s because it was the best decade for music, movies, tv. People weren't constantly out there looking to be offended all the time. Grown adults didn't act like fragile children.
at least jerry springer had the sense to go from i have the worst show on tv to eventually saying i'm sorry i caused the downfall of western civilization. human nature means we can't stop watching train wrecks.

Exactly
They use a dıfferent genre as theır format
Part of the evolutıon was thay tall shows were seen as fake and contrıved. The synthesıs was "realıty" tv
I've sat in the audience for Steve Wilkos, Maury, and Karamo
Once I watch that stuff, i feel better about life
Steve wılkos makes u feel better abt lıfe? That show ıs dark

It's gross that 90df have Angela and Ed on the show. Can't stand their nonsense.

Maury Povitch didn't start out as a baby daddy drama show. A popular and frequent guest was zoo keeper Jack Hannah.
