I know none of these shows are seen in a good light as it's embarrassing cheap TV .But my point is atleast Trisha had a calm approach & tried to help people or made it seem like she was concerned. She was the polar opposite of Kyle big Mr self entitled gob.

And nobody said anything about guests being prodded & provoked backstage on her show, whereas with Kyle there seems to be more manipulation and horrible treatment.

And even Jerry Springer & Ricky Lake tried to communicate properly with guests , they always came across as likeable hosts. I know people find their programs trash ( and yes I agree), but we all know the American ones were more staged and panto ish anyway,it always felt like Springer & Lake felt awkward in the centre of the mess,but they'd have to just laugh it off.
