Remember in the early 2000 whole bunch of us young guys taking our lunch break right on 12 so we could watch the jerry springer show.

Pure trash tv, but it was awesome

I hope Steve the bodyguard is coping ok with Springer's passing.

I'm sure he's okay, he's had his own talk show since 2007.

The midget fight episode fight was the best.

Yes, that 12pm timeslot was great, there was nothing else like this on 5 channel telly growing up. School holidays, sick days, later work lunch hours, made good viewing. Of its time but iconic and gave that audience what they wanted.

Was a bit surprised to hear the news as he wasn't exactly thought of as an old guy in my mind just yet.

The Jerry Springer Show did use actors to play these loser/degenerate guests many times, and it was dishonest not to make that known at the time. But it was still an enjoyable low-brow show.
