Let’s take a trip down memory lane and look at the weirdest episodes of Jerry Springer’s show.
Jerry Springer, the American television presenter who hosted the controversial talk show The Jerry Springer Show, has recently passed away at the age of 79. Throughout his career, Jerry Springer gained notoriety for airing some of the most bizarre and shocking episodes on television, which were broadcast across the world, lifting the veil on the unbelievable lives of some Americans.
Was it commodifying white trash for profit, giving us a peep into the zoo of American life? Probably. Would that kind of shit fly today? Probably not. But we certainly gobbled it up at the time… Regardless, it’s certainly sad to lose Springer. In honour of his death, check out some classic clips from the Jerry Springer Show below:
