I find it incredulous that people can make such terrible decisions. I refuse to believe that there are people like that in the world. Someone please tell me this show is scripted :-/

Is that still on? The mother of one of my son's friends was on that years ago, it was about feuding neighbors, and I guess she was feuding with a neighbor. I didn't even watch it, I just couldn't stand that show, and it's impossible to respect the people who go on it. I loved Devin's friend but I think it was embarrassing for him to have his mother on that show, lol. oops, I never really responded to "is it real?" I know they use real people because of this kid's mom. BUT I think they're given pep talks and urged to milk it for all it's worth.

I hope you're right in that these people are just being hyped up. I WISH I knew someone who had been on that show! I watch it just like I people watch in a public place. I just am in shock at some of these people.

Jerry and Maury were early versions of reality shows.

The yelling and drama is scripted but the DNA test aren't and the women that come on there a million times and don't know who their baby daddy is are normally real to. I don't understand how someone can sleep with that many people in that short of a time to not know who the father is. My mom said if she slept with a guy she wrote his name down on the calendar for that day/night that way she always knew who she slept with if she became pregnant.

@HaleighElizabeth Most people don't look at other people's calenders that are in theirbrooms. It's just a calendar like any other but some dates would have a man's name on it. Most people wouldn't even give it a second glance.

I think it's hyped up but after working customer service for years I'm afraid there really are people out there who are that stupid and or irresponsible.

Right!? I did the customer service gig for awhile as well. Makes me wonder what kind of people applied, but didn't get on the show. I wonder about the runner-ups ...

I was never sure if Jerry Springer or Maury were real or if people were lying. Once I did recognize a guest from another Springer show. He was wearing a wig and glasses the second time.
