REVIEW
Take all the excitement of a real Jerry Springer TV show, then remove the drama of having actual people airing their dirty laundry in public, and you get this pointless film. Jerry himself is reduced to cameo status as the film focuses on two stories: one a white-trash family that features a stepfather-stepdaughter coupling; and a black-trash trio of girlfriends who all hate one two-timing (three-timing, four-timing) man. Hair-pulling, breast-baring, mother-cursing just isn't as much fun when you know it's scripted, like the day you found out professional wrestling isn't real. The best parts of the movie feature Jerry wondering aloud whether what he's done with his life is right or not. Ultimately, he loves his guests, his guests love each other and you'll be bored by all of it.
