Whom do you prefer?

• Jerry Springer. The original. I don't quite get all the gimmicks, like starting the show sliding down a pole and audience members flashing for "Jerry Beads". Plus, too violent. I suspect it may be staged.

• Maury. Springer with DNA and lie detector tests. More histrionic than violent.

• Steve Witkos, Gets my vote. Seems to be the most articulate and to genuinely want to help people.

I picked Jerry because it's the most tolerable. Wilkos has gone off his rocker and I hate, hate HATE the way he goes about determining if someone is telling the truth or not. It's like he's trying to be Sally, Phil and Jerry all wrapped into one with a little Seagal thrown in for good measure. It's pathetic.

I've been watching Jerry for years. It always gives me a laugh.

I watched Jerry when I was younger, but I always thought the violence and freak outs from each episode were just a little over the top. I also think that Maury is just a little over the top too, but I still enjoy watching the show.

maury used to be my "fav" out of the three, but they're all ridiculous and feel staged, lol

If I had to choose (I really don't like any of them), I guess I would pick Maury. I gotta tell you guys, I do not feel sorry for some of the women who go on the show for paternity tests. I mean, I've seen it where the woman had been on the show like six times, and not one guy she brought was the father! Who has unprotected sex with that many people in such a short period of time? That's downright stupid and irresponsible!

Maury is annoying and needs new material, the other two are ok.

Jerry hands down. i love to watch him after finals week; it's like eating candy- no nutritional value but it's still so damned good

If you put a gun to my head and made me choose, I would go with Maury. Although I would seriously prefer none of the above.

I like Maury for a good laugh but I kinda have a crush on Steve Wilkos! His show comes on so early in the AM but I alwayas DVR it. I NEVER miss an episode. I don't watch Jerry anymore his show is just a huge mess. I'd rather not be bothered.

I'll go for Jerry - it cracks me up something fierce. But I do miss Ricki Lake

I like Jerry enough that I saw Jerry Springer the opera.

I've never even heard of Steve Wilkos! I think I prefer Maury out of those 3, but I've never seen Steve Wilkos, so I could be wrong.

Steve used to be the security guy on Springer. He became popular enough to have his own show.

I love Maury and Steve Wilkos. I watch them whenever I get the chance.

I'd probably pick Maury from the poll, though, because I've watched it longer. I love the wild teen segments.

I get confused whenever Steve does DNA paternity test shows because the earliest episodes especially were focused on exposing molesters, abusers, and killers even if the show itself couldn't convict the fuckers. Granted, there are more topics on Steve, but those were the bulk it appears.
