Are these talk shows for real, Jeremy Kyle, Rikki and so on, would you go on air and tell everyone your story?

Answer 1

some are real most are paid acoters etc. Jerry pringer went public about all the controversy

Answer 2

The shows are quite real, I think you must have to have a very strange personality to go on and air your problems to the world I know i could never do it, but i suppose if you have a problem with someone and you can prove it TV it must be the ultimate humiliation.

Not keen on the USA shows, but I do admire Jeremy Kyle for the amount of effort he puts in to actually helping people after the show, with advice and therapists, he has even got people jobs before and medical help.

Its not my favourite kind of viewing tho I must admit.

Answer 3

Don't start me off on that Kyle man. He obviously gets vulnerable people so that he can bully them. He must think it looks good. I can't believe the people on the Rikki show are a good representation of American folk, and, NO, I would not go on and air my dirty washing in public

Answer 4

i think some are real stories and others not. I am sure they have researchers scouring those trash magazines that have real life stories and ring them up and ask to go on show.The more outragouse and far fetched the better.
I would not want to air my dirty linen in public and I dont watch others do it either not entertainment on someones misery forget it.
So in answer to your question No I would never go on any show like thsi and no many are fake and set up.Do you remember The Vanessa Show fake guests the lot so if one does it so do the rest.

Answer 5

jeremy kyle is the epitome of all that is wrong in this worl he had problems and i think he gets people on with similar probs to ease his own concious but the way he barks at people,god if i was on that show id give the prat something to think about,he talks about visiting his daughter every w/end and shes 200 miles away,id move that far 2,imagine the stick she gets in school over him?the man himself has issues and takes it out on his guests

Answer 6

No way!
It's bad enough for the family and friends to know...Never mind the whole world.
And, I'm sure I would punch that Jeremy Kyle's lights out.

Answer 7

I don't care if kyle is for real, i just love watching him having a go at the people on it for not using condom's. I think that it should be on at about 5.00pm and rubbish like "dale's supermarket sweep" put were it is at the moment. or better still, put it on about 9.00PM so they don't have to cut out all the swearing. But as I've had my "five minute's of fame" i don't think i'll go on it.

Answer 8

Yes they are for real and NO way would i want to go on any of those shows whatever kind of money is offered and i take it these clients who appear do get paid, its degrading and the show is done for the benefit of ITV as a cheap programme.and i think too much viewing time is spared for all this trivia

Answer 9

I think some of them are real, i wouldn't go on any show like that, my emotions are mine, but i do like watching them sometimes, although after a couple of days you can get quite down.

The people on the shows are the ones conning the TV show though, overnight hotel, transport, etc etc... The shows do get annoyed if they feel they've been duped

Answer 10

No, it's creepy. They'd have to be clinically insane to want to meet Jezza and air their dirty laundry in public. Sadly, I think these stories are real. Britian's full of chav's nowadays.

Answer 11

yes Jeremy kyle is real not sure about the American ones though.I would not go on and air my dirty laundry!
