Synopsis

“Jer-ry! Jer-ry! Jer-ry!” Most ’90s kids will remember the chants from days spent home sick from school browsing daytime television, landing on the wild, often controversial Jerry Springer Show. Hosted by the late former Cincinnati mayor and local news anchor Jerry Springer, the daytime talk show ran for 27 seasons, a televised circus tent where every act was an over-the-top melodrama featuring love triangles, secret siblings, and the occasional flying chair. But how did “the worst TV show of all time,” as Springer himself introduced it, become one of the biggest and most outrageous hits of the ’90s? Jerry Springer: Fights, Camera, Action is a new two-part documentary series that explores the show’s origins and meteoric rise. The jaw-dropping series tells the story of the show as it’s never been told before, with extraordinary firsthand testimony and revelations from show insiders who lay bare the dark truths behind its entertaining facade.

TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Delight Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
