Maury's show is produced by the same people as Jerry Springer, and it's just as phony and staged.

Well, what about "We're all pink on the inside"? Not what I'm talking about lol. Basically what I'm trying to say, without being very vulgar of course, is that "in the dark", its less about looks and more about performance lol. From both of course.

I know his wife, Connie Chung, is - or at least, used to be - a respected journalist; was Maury himself ever anything more than the host of A Current Affair? That's the earliest I remember seeing him, and that was back in the '80s.

What kills me about the show is how Maury himself tries to sound so supportive of his guests when they're testing the paternity of their child for the 18th time. Quit trying to make these ladies out to be like they're so brave for wanting to find the father of their kid, and put 'em in their place for being the hos that they are. Its always, "Lateisha admits that she made a mistake, but now is desperate to find the father of her baby." Nobody makes 18 mistakes in a row. Try a condom on for size.

I watch this show every time I stay home from school, and during the summer, and I'm still baffled as to how there is really people like that in the world. I mean, seriously, screaming at someone on national television, looking like a complete idiot, wouldn't that have some indication to the person you are?
Ugh, I can't right now. I live in a town full of people who are gonna be on Maury in a few years.

It really baffles me how people still watch these shows, or that these shows still exist in the first place. The other day at work I walked into the breakroom and someone had the TV on Jerry Springer, I yelled out..What? Did I just step back into 1998? I just can't grasp the fact that trash TV talk shows still air. ' And people make fun of us for "still" watching WWE.

Maybe alcohol is involved? I once saw a beautiful young woman drunk off her ass making out with a guy who had 3 teeth in his head and looked like a throwback to a much earlier time ...
Maury is a guilty pleasure of mine, and the lie detector shows always crack me up. People put way too much stock in these devices. If they were so foolproof, they would be admissible in court. Penn & Teller did and excellent show on these.

If you have standards, it can be VERY hard, though I agree, generally they match each other looks wise, it's not like some toothless mutant has a string of models after them. Reality TV does strange things to people.

Does Maury do any shows other than paternity test ones anymore? Yes, he does the Lie Detector show. He no longer seems to do the "Please help me with my out of control teen" shows, as those used to crack me up as well. And he does the "You used to pick on me, look at me now!" shows. I had one of those incidents one night. This gal came up to me at a bar and gave me hell for giving her a rough time back then, but now she's lost like 250 pounds and look at her now. After she did her monologue, I picked up my beer and turned to my bud and said, "Honestly, I don't know what the hell she was talking about. How could I have given her a hard time when I never talked to her? Hell, I never acknowledged her existence. I was taking such a ration of shit from my classmates as I was the easiest mark to pick on, since I was the black kid who just sat there and took it because he was read the riot act by his parents if he ever beat the crap out of someone for giving him a hard time. Yeah, she got picked on, but not by me. I had my own issues to deal with." Not that I was a saint by any stretch of the imagination, because like most teenagers I had my days where I could be a prick. I just never gave her any crap because when I was a Senior she was a Sophomore and I didn't even acknowledge that she was alive.

Maury has about five shows:
Who's the babydaddy?
Did you cheat? Take the lie detector!
My husband controls me!
Sexy/Crazy videos
Then he has the show where he tries to act like a good guy by having Jack Hanna or nerdy to sexy.
He stopped doing the Tranny shows he used to have all the time.
