I just got done watching a episode of Jerry Springer and was in shock. Well I guess most people are after watching that show. But it was not because of the cocky guests. But because he gave a woman $125.00 to pay her past due electric bill. I was sitting here thinking well heck let me go on Jerry because my mom dont like my husband and cry about my bills. And see if maybe he will hand me some cash. Did anyone else see this show? What do you think about him giving that lady cash?

I used to watch Jerry Springer back whenI was a teenager because I used to think it was funny to see all the crazy people get up there and scream and fight and rip each others clothes off etc... But as I got a bit older it made me sad for the people that would get on TV and air their dirty laundry like that for millions of people to laugh at. The fact that Jerry Springer gave someone money is a nice gesture, it really is BUT people need to learn to help themselves sometimes. and sometimes the only way to learn is to get hurt.

Wow! That is very nice of him to do that. I didn't see the show but I have seen Jerry Springer before and know pretty much what it's all about. I hope that woman doesn't turn around and do something else with that money. I guess if he wants to give his money out to people, that's his business. Just hopefully she'll be thankful for it!

No I did not see the show but I am sure I can come up with a story for that show and whine about my bills too. This discussion reminded me of the Oprah show where she gives all the people there at the show some of her favorie things. Man, I wish I could be one of those people.

Nope- I don't watch it- I can't say that I have not ever watched it- It's not something I watch alot- I have new respect for Jerry after Dancing with the star though- He was a nice man- I still would not go on Springer for some cash- I can't imagine ever needing to go on- You must have to have it real bad- and be a good actor- as well as a fighter- How nice of him to give her $$ for a bill though!

I used to watch Jerry Springer all the time, it has been awhile since I have watched it cause I have been addicted to the Soap Channel ever since we got satellite in our home, that is great that he gave someone that money, I always knew he had a big heart, but it might be bad that everyone will now be asking Jerry to pay for things for them.

I wouldn't go on that show for $1,500. Talk about some trashy people.
