Filed under: Industry, Programming, OpEd, Reality-Free, TV Squad Ten Television as an industry is in need of a major overhaul. It's old, dusty, soiling itself, and not keeping up with the technology that changes from day to day. If it were an old, sick animal, or Larry King, it would probably be put...

Here are some pictures of Jerry Springer with the girls of Chicago. I guess he’s in the play or something and I’d call him a lucky guy but these whores are busted. You’d think they’d be able to land some decent pussy and not something less appealing than the hair pulling, pre...

The thing about America’s Got Talent is that it isn’t really about talent - it’s about attention-seeking idiots. But at least America’s Got Talent knows this. That’s why, to replace Jerry Springer, the new host of America’s Got Talent has been named as Nick Cannon...

An ex-employee of the Weinsteins is writing a tell-all about Harvey and Bob's management of Miramax. A bunch of Howard Stern regulars had to be put in a secure bunker w...

Jerry Springer, a former mayor of Cincinnati and current talk show host, has made a household name of himself — for all the wrong reasons. His wildly popular talk show is notorious for its fighting, biting, screaming, pushing, and cheating guests. It's as lowbrow as TV can get, but the ratings rem...
