When did Maury lose his last shred of dignity?
His show is worse than Springer.

2. Let me guess
It's either people getting paternity tests or people with gross physical deformaties.

Am I right?

10. Again- quite sad
It doesn't help the men, or the child. It just makes the woman look like the biggest (insert your adjective of choice) of all time.

5. When he keeps bringing on the same girls for the X numbered paternity test
If you messed up once, that's bad. If you have to bring ANOTHER guy, that you swear is "the only one I've been with", and you're STILL wrong, and he offers to "keep testing" any other men you can think of.

That's going too far. Some things just shouldn't be aired.

11. What gets me...
is when the woman KNOWS she slept with other men and the paternity test comes back proving one of the men she brought on the show is NOT the father...and she goes running off the stage and breaks down crying in the hallway like she didn't expect that result.

16. Even worse
when they are "absolutely 100 % sure"

Question:
Is that really a legitimate answer on man # 2 or more ?

21. I always find it hillarious that
they call the women evey name in the book, but yet, they slept with them. Now, you tell me, what makes them so much better ? :shrug: :argh:

12. A long time ago.
I used to watch his shows about teenage sluts who disobey their parents.

Then I turned 16.

13. Oh yeah...I kind of remember those. And they'd bring in that big muscley
guy to come in and scream at them. And they'd be gone for a few hours and come back entirely reformed.

20. All of that and the fact that he's a rethug
Makes Connie Chung's hubby not so cool anymore.

I loved Current Affair- hey, what did I know ? I was a young impressionable teen at the time.
