i dont get it, why do people go on jerry springer? its a lame show that curses and people fight on. I mean, its sortave fun but whats the point of it? People embarrasing themselves on that show and people are probably going to laugh at them in real life.

very Possibly money,I am not sure if there is an exchange of monies for appearances on the show.Some folk like the sensationalism,and guess find it's a way to gain recognition.very Possibly some even find fun in it, which in itself is a plus.Whatever the reasons it boils down to different strokes for different folks.

You know, I have wonder that myself. But.... !!!! If you look at the show and compare some of the people on there, you'll see that they're actors. Some of the "guests" have been on there more than once and as different people. I think the show started out legit, but eventually just couldn't find enough ignorant trailer trash to keep it going so they started hiring people. And the show got canceled anyway, so thank goodness there won't be anymore of that vicarious humiliation going on.

I don't know why people would go on that show I have watched it before and if I never watch it again it wouldnt bother me...the show is really stupid and none of the problems ever get solved they just look like bigger rednecks! I don't believe the people that go on that show anyways becausae a number of years back( I dont really remember the exact number of years it has been)but they tried to say that the jerry springer show was all scripted and they actually paid people to come on their show and do that!
