Never Gets Old

Springer has done it again. As I have previously written about, Stamford is the home for the Jerry Springer show, and now we get the first case of what this can do to a town.  One of the guests on the show was arrested late last night at a local hotel for hitting another guest.  I can see his point, if you can hit people on the show and not get in trouble, why not in real life.  Remember these people are not the most educated and that would seem to be their only way of thinking.  I can only imagine what type of substances these guests have in their body.  JERRY JERRY JERRY. (still do not know the airdate of the show I attended)

Jerry Springer Round 2

Here are two clips of the Jerry Springer show. Get ready to laugh.  Homecoming recap coming soon.

Jerry Springer

On Monday, I had the privilege to attend a live taping of the Jerry Springer show along with compadre, Dong Moore.  We arrived at the studio in downtown Stamford and waiting around a half hour to enter the theatre.  When we entered, we were immediately seated in the 2nd row right behind one of the bodyguards.  Jerry comes out does a stand-up routine to get the crowd ready for the show with raunchy humor.  Then come the guests, first we had a cheating boyfriend with girl on side, which led to a black lady with buck teeth getting her wig ripped off repeatedly during the 2 minute brawl.  The next segment involved two homosexuals, one wanted a child with a random girl and the other didn't, yet one of they gays developed feelings for the girl.  Once again there was another brawl between the gays, which lead to the highlight chant of "Fight Like a Man!" which in turn led to small amounts of blood being drawn from one of the guys.  Finally, the last segment was two seriously obese black women fighting over an anorexic small black guy.  This is where things got crazy, it was an all out riot, men fighting women, women fighting men, women fighting women and included a marriage proposal.  It was like the heavyweight title match for the belt.  During every one of the fights the security guards egg on the brawlers to do more with the crowd up out of their seats cheering them on.  Another highlight was the question segment at the end for all of the guests on the show.  The large black girls in the last segment were repeatedly called Kool-Aid, she as wearing a red shirt and looked like the kool-aid man.  A man with a dragon face tattoo wanted to bed one of the gays from the 2nd segment and there were two pairs of audience breasts exposed.  The crowd was not as redneck overall as I thought it would be, many of the disrupting people were seated in the  back to begin with so they could not interrupt the show, the seaters do their job pretty well.  All in all, an enjoyable experience, my stomach hurt afterwards from laughter.  Next step, going to see Maury in the next few weeks.

Man, I wish I got to see this episode, which was also taped in Stamford.

Three New Shows!

The most exciting thing to hit Stamford since Sugar Ray last week is now here! Jerry Springer, Maury Povitch, and Steve Wilkos have packed up and moved from windy Chicago to the City that Works, Stamford, CT. Connecticut has huge tax credits for filmmakers, so over the past few years many have taken advantage. Examples: Righteous Kill (Al Pacino & Robert DeNiro) Revolutionary Road, Away We Go, and my personal favorite Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Yesterday was the first day of filming and I happened to walk by the line to get into the Avon Theatre, and there was over 300 people there, many got turned away. Apparently they film three Jerry Springer Shows each day. (unknown about other two shows) In good news, I got tickets to see Maury in a few weeks. The good part is that all of these shows are free and all you need to do is apply for tickets either on the phone or online.
