Mum is watching Jerry Springer. The video screwed up and taped it instead of Days Of Our Lives. DOOL is marginally better but mum was like "oh I always wanted to see this show." So she's watching it.

Shit, people who endorse and support these sorts of shows should be sterilised. They should NOT be allowed to breed. One of the women on today was pregnant. I feel really really sorry for the kid who probably is going to grow up to be as dumb as it's parents.

Oh yeah, and don't you just love Jerry's little bullshit spiel at the end about how these people are acting like they are because they are hurt and that we should all love each other blah blah blah.

No, they are acting like that because they are DUMB!! You, Jerry are smart in a sick, sad kind of way because you've discovered how to make money of people's stupidity.

Theres the belief that Jerry Springers guests are all actors -shrug-
I watch it and never take it seriously so it's something to drift off into space with :).

Ahhhh, the 'don't let them breed' arguement.
LOVE IT!
The quote, not the show.

Jerry Springer is an evil evil man. I almost admire his ability to know humanity so well. I say almost because his show makes me ill.

It's funny that Jerry Springer was once the Mayor of Cincinnati.
*sigh*

Hah. I think it's a funny show.

The sad side-effect is that people's lives are generally fucked up. Thing is though, they're obviously going to be fucked up whether they're on Jerry or not. The Springer Show is no longer running, as Jerry wanted to get back into politics.

The people on that show get what they get because they walked into that situation. They asked for it. So I wouldn't pay them any mind. Keep ignoring the show and keep being a decent human being :)

And as far as the sterilisation argument goes - well, stupids kind of breed themselves out of the populace. They get themselves killed far easier in idiotic accidents and with drink driving and talking on mobile phones whilst driving and stuff, so that's another thing you shouldn't let yourself worry about too much :)

well, I agree that most of the guests should be sterilised for their own protection...

But I can't tear myself away from Jerry Springer if it happens to come on. (I don't actively search for it, but if it lands there, it stays)

Weird Al has it right--"it's totally worthless, like a bad check. It's like a train wreck, don't wanna stare, but you can't look away..."

I think it makes me feel smarter and more normal to see how whacked out people can be. And I have a grudging respect for Springer, I guess: Ricky Lake is just as bad, but Springer doesn't even *pretend* to be classy.

Although, "Springer's Final Thought" makes me want to scream "hypocrite" every time.

Jerry Springer isn't that bad a show.

Sure, it features some real stupid people, but they would exist regardless.

At least this way we get to laugh at them.

And they get paid up to $5000 a guest. Some of those people really could use the money. Maybe they could use it to buy a clue.

Actually, i think stupid people breed more. They always seem to have kids, and feed them Coke when they're 2. Too stupid to understand the instructions on a condom?
