He was 79.

One of the worst but also best shows I ever watched, made for some great relaxing entertainment when my kids were tiny and I needed a break from the world.

RIP

Jerry Springer, legendary talk show host, dead at 79

Jerry Springer, legendary talk show host and former mayor of Cincinnati , has died, according to a statement from his family. He was 79.

The show was by far, one of the lowest form of "entertainment" I have ever seen. Maybe Mr. Springer was different with his family.

wow. The thought of Jerry Springer brings a flood of memories of my dad. When he was in his final years in a wheelchair at home each afternoon while my mom worked, he would call me (also at work) and tell me about the cartoons that day. He was an avid watcher of the cartoons as he called them, in reality they were the Jerry Springer show and Peoples Court. He ate up all that drama and it helped him pass his afternoons.

I still miss his phone calls telling about this or that guest and their daily dose of drama.

I admired him for being smart enough to get wealthy off of crass entertainment, but yeah, most of those shows were hard to watch. People are the worst!

Pancreatic cancer. Sounds like a semi recent diagnosis.

Yes. Pancreatic cancer can have almost no symptoms in many cases. I had a friend who went in for a hysterectomy, and came out with a diagnosis of "Pancreatic cancer", she was dead within 3 months.

That will kill you quickly

It's scary how some cancers sneak up on people like that with hardly no signs, and when it's finally detected they are gone within months or even weeks... =(

I am sorry to hear of his passing. He was crass. but very dramatic and funny. We used to watch him in our late teens, and marvel over the guests he found. May he RIP. Katt

My first internship was with Jerry Springer’s show. He was very kind. May he rest in peace.
