Were Jerry Springer guests even real though, I always assumed they were paid actors, a bit like the WWE of talk shows?

I think it was a mixture of real & fake and all outrageous .
I remember seeing a clip on YouTube where it looked like one of the guests got confused with his own storyline & somebody was trying to help him remember.

I reckon it started of real (ish) but they eventually just had majority paid/fake people on there.

My mother and grandmother are bereft... they love Jeremy Kyle. I have no idea why... Someone on this thread said he was sanctimonious... that's exactly what he is.

I dont think this is gonna return, a few people have come out saying they have been left suicidal after the show

Good, burn it to the ground and never even show a re-run.

It’s not often I agree with Rotkins, but she’s pretty bang on about the situation

Well there I no denying the facts , Love Island should be pulled aswell , it's difficult though as humans are complex and if they are that way inclined almost anything could trigger them off , it maybe nothing to do with the shows , but I suppose you have to err on the side of caution.

Hopkins is right sorry.

[Withano]

Surprised it took this long. That Kyle bloke practically tortures them before publically humiliating them. Terrible show presented by a top ****. Hope it ends for good.

Katie Hopkins didn't lie huh

Yeah I was thinking this earlier, I'm not sure about criticising JK as exploitative television when we are on a forum dedicated to Big Brother as well tbh

[James]

Yeah, it's kind of lucky, to be honest, ther wasn't a suicide with Big Brother, when you hear some of the stories from the ex-housemates.

[Greg!]

I get that point there's a big difference. People go on BB and LI for fame / love / the experience. Whereas people (usually vunerable) go on Jeremy Kyle to air their dirty laundry on TV and potentially ruin their or someone else's family or relationship in front of 1million+ viewers.

It does seem like a silly and irrational decision on ITV's part when you fail to highlight JK has been heavily criticised for well over a decade for it's treatment of guests and this suicide was likely the straw the broke the camels back.

People go on Jeremy Kyle for the same reasons.

I know someone who did it, she literally just wanted to be on telly. Heard some say they got paid but she never - she got free transport, put up in a hotel for 2 days and was given an open bar tab and she kept ringing saying she wanted cigs and they sent her at least 200 over those two days.

[Amy Jade]

^ That woman was given after care aswell. I know her granddaughter.

[JerseyWins]

For anyone that would happen to know... is this more of a "Dr. Phil" or "Jerry Springer" kind of show? Because I like Jerry Springer but can't stand Dr. Phil.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure these "talk show" types are totally scripted. That was always my assumption

[Amy Jade]

I'd say it's closer to Maury/Springer

[bots]

Hopkins argument as usual is just wrong.

Only one death after 1000's of shows is just no justification for it being acceptable.
