Maury Povich

[Disneyland1084]

I use to LOVE his talk show. I would watch it every day. Now at least 3 or 4 times every week the topic is paternity tests. I'm so sick of it! If I want to watch trash, I'll turn on Jerry Springer. Maybe they do paternity tests because that's what viewers want to see. I know I don't. What's your opinion?

This is the second thread you've started today where you're bashing my show. What gives?

PS. Feel free to bash Maury all you wish. His show is way trashier than mine.

What I'm really trying to say is I miss the times when Maury and Springer had NORMAL topics with regular people on it.

I have regular people on my show all the time. They just happen to be sleeping with their cousins.

VERY true! I believe the majority of people on Springer are acting. Maury, no.

To be on Maury, you have to be able to cry without actually shedding any tears.

He! He! My DH's favorite line from that show is: "Is you my babies daddy?" He and one of his friends walk around saying it out loud all the time as a joke. We can always rely on Maury for a good laugh during the week. I find it unbelieveable that these women on his show can sleep with so many men that they don't even remember who that they slept with. I'm sorry but that is just gross.

I think it is very sad that Maury has sunk to this level. I get no enjoyment out of watching the dredges of humanity. I have no sympathy for anyone on the show except the poor kids caught in the middle. People who sleep with anyone and everyone that comes along do not deserve my time or respect. The worse part is what they are probably teaching those children.

I agree, Maury's show has gone downhill. I never watch it anymore.

As for Jerry Springer, I never in a million years thought MY FAMILY would have material for THAT show...but they DO! In a way it's funny, but it's really sad to think about it.

I know what you mean about Maury, OP. I used to watch it every afternoon and I really enjoyed it. They used to have the occasional Paternity test show, but they used to have other topics.

Now all they have is "Are you my baby's daddy?", "Vicious Animal Attacks," and "I'm deformed and people are mean to me because of it" ??? It really has gone downhill. I can't believe he stooped to that level!

Maury used to be a guilty pleasure when I worked in the Loop. About once a week we'd go out to lunch at the local Chinese place and they'd always have Maury playing on their TV.

It just became a tradition--sweet & sour chicken and "Who's your daddy?". I kind of miss it.

 

[BeNJeNWaFFLe]

You forgot the classic "I cheated on you with 20 some odd women. But please take me back! I'll never do it again." *two weeks later* "I cheated on you again. This time with 40 women. I won't do it anymore. Take me back."

Now all I ever see on Maury is the Babies Daddy shows. It is truly sad when you have slept with so many men that you can't remember their names. One of them fathers your child and you take all of them on the show one by one hoping to find the father. I have better things to do with my time than watch that.

I was just mentioning this to DH last night. Whenever I ride the exercise bike, I channel surf and whenever I come to Maury, it seems he is always doing a paternity test show. He used to be a respected journalist. I don't understand how he can make himself do these shows. Well, I do know ($$$$), but I would think he could still make money doing a less slimy show.
