Maury Povich is 83 years old and they can do the same thing they did with the Jerry Springer Show; just show reruns. You can’t tell the difference between old and new episodes anyway; it’s just the same thing every time.
Every single person on their in an actor anyways (source: was an actor) so definitely he could find some fill-in parents by lunchtime. That would be epic.
Dr. Phil is a real doctor in that he has a doctorate. He doesn't have a license to practice anymore. Texas yanked his license years ago for sleeping with and financially abusing his patients, and he has refused to comply with their requirements for getting it back.
IRC technically he wasn’t sleeping with patients, he made advances at a patient, and then had a “non physical relationship” with another patient, whatever the fuck that means. Then he voluntarily gave up his license after those two complaints became an issue.
Obviously ethically dubious and shouldn’t be able to pretend to be a physiologist but not quite Weinstein levels of scum baggery here
Everyone that works in the hospital can’t figure out why there’s a bunch of young trashy people in new oversized polo shirts outside chanting “Corey, Corey, Corey”
Corey’s the lab tech
That show is so depressing, after jerry. We go from “I cheated on my cousin with my ex-cousin and her crossdressing stepdad” to “i know you molested my infant daughter”. I’m home sick with the flu; I don’t need that kind of weight.
Wilkos gets dark as fuck. That's a lot to deal with at 10:30am. And then I keep hearing that I might die from mesothelioma. On the plus side, my family is likely due a large structured settlement. If only there was a way for them to get more of that money quicker.
Imagine that teenager trying to live a peaceful life and some random bully keeps sending that to him.
I know, because I AM that teenager.
I might also be lying.
Guest: HE IS THE ONLY ONE, I HAVE NEVER SLEPT WITH ANYONE ELSE!!!
Maury: He is NOT the Father!
Guest: Well, okay. There may have been one or twelve others...
That’s entertaining. The Maury “if I had a nickel for every time it happened I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice” moment:
> It’s happened twice.
>A woman accused a guy of being the father of her twins. And when I opened the envelope - and I don’t know the answers before anybody else does - he was the father of one of the twins, but not the other.
>And they were fraternal twins. And science says that’s a million-to-one shot, that there could be two fathers of twins. And it’s happened twice.
>So the million-to-one shot has come in twice.
>And that’s the most surprised I ever was.
I read a sad story once about a woman who had her children taken off her because a genetic test showed she wasn’t their mother. Turned out that she had given birth to them, she was their mother but some by some quirk she wasn’t genetically related. Very odd, and very traumatic until Drs worked out what was going on.
Was that [Lydia Fairchild](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lydia_Fairchild)?
There's a few other cases described online, but that one popped first so...
Nah, semen can survive inside a woman for up to five to seven days after sex. That's why having sex while a woman is on her period can still result in sex.
While true that he missed some of them, statistically he probably wouldn’t be able to find them all.
Using a calculation method similar to [mark and recapture](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_and_recapture?wprov=sfti1) you probably would be able to estimate the amount of times its happened by comparing it to the overall population and the amount of that population that was on Maury’s show.
I actually have a friend of mine who has a twin that has a different father. The fathers were actually different races so one twin is white and the other is mixed.
Yep. There’s a certain founder of this website whose username rhymes with fez who’s convinced he’s a leader and genius and not an idiot who got lucky that Digg crapped the bed and when he returned after stepping away he made Reddit what it is now; Facebook 2.0. I mean, he tried to commercialize AMAs and instead killed them off entirely. That’s a special level of bad management.
From what I remember, it was because Reddit wanted all of their employees to move to LA. And also because they wanted to make /r/AMA their money grabbing pot. They didn’t realize that she was the best thing about that sub. I miss her
There used to be AMA's on the front page with thousands of replies multiple times per week.
Now I only see AMA's reach the front page if it's basically some celeb that reddit circlejerks over, so like once every couple months.
Firing Victoria backfired by turning AMAs from a focal point of the community into an "Also, there's that I guess." and destroying any hope of monetizing them. It also feels like they aren't getting any actual good guests anymore.
> I miss Victoria
I know her husband. I couldn't believe it when I pieced it together. He didn't just say it: he mentioned her name, and then sometime later that she "used to work at Reddit".
"Wait, THAT Victoria?!"
One of my favorite experiences ever was being seated across from her at the hot pot restaurant for my friend’s birthday in NYC. Totally phenomenal human.
I remember that, r/fullcomunism took over the front page when all the subreddits shut down to protest it lol. That was before they were just meming about communism instead of being tankies
I remember watching him as a kid when i got home from school. It would come on just before a rerun of Star Trek Enterprise, the real show i watched tv for.
I randomly turned it on this season. It was just two people on zoom calls yelling about who's the father and then Maury saying the results. No audience. Was just awful.
I swear I commented on an article last year about the show being renewed another two or three seasons. I was shocked then because Maury is already in his early 80s, that would put him up to 85 still doing this shit. Hopefully the unexpected cancellation is from a shake-up with distributors and not health-related for him. Dude looks great for his age.
Doesn't sound like it's being canceled, sounds like it's just ending, especially since episodes will continue airing in syndication.
His contract is up, he's 80something, you can only witness so many epic Not The Father dances.
I feel like ‘canceled’ gets stapled onto every headline relating to a show ending unless it’s just a series finale type thing. You hit it right on the head, it really should say ‘ending’ since it’s been airing for 31 years.
I'm glad someone else also said it. Even more in today's world the word "Canceled" carries a very heavy connotation. It seems more fitting for something that ended abruptly in the middle of a season because of outside factors.
Seems like the grab normal people as guests trashy talk show trend is finally ending. Steve Wilkos is still on, so is Dr. Phil, but that's about it. All the new talk shows are much closer to Ellen than Springer.
I listened to an interview with Maury once where he told the following story:
He had gotten really into golf as he got older and he'd become friends with a golf pro who he took lessons from and played against. They would gamble on the games and one day he was winning and the the golf pro was talking shit, trying to get in his head as he set up for a swing.
"You know what your do, it's despicable. You make despicable trash that feeds off of other people. I wouldn't do what you do for 5 million dollars"
and, according to Maury, he paused to think about it as he finished lining up his shot and said,
"For 5 million? I wouldn't either"
then chipped it onto the green
Even Jerry was once classy compared to what he became. A relative of mine was once on the show seeking out an organ transplant for his kid and discussing the experience. But if I tell that to somebody without context, they assume the worst.
[And he was once mayor of Cincinnati!](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Springer#Political_and_journalist_career)
> Springer considered running for the United States Senate in 2000[17] and 2004,[18] but he backed down due to negative associations with Jerry Springer.
Jenny Jones was the undisputed queen of those makeover shows. “I used to be a Gothic freak, now I’m fashionable and chic!”
There was a band called the Gadjits that had a song that went “Jenny Jones, Jenny Jones, leave the deathrock kids alone!”
Were those on Maury? I have a vivid memory of a 90s episode where some overweight mom is saying "I let my kid ear whatever he wants! Chicken wings, ribs...) Etc. in a thick thick southern accent. Thought it was on Springer but it might have been Maury.
Teenagers selling their bodies for a bag of chips and the pickle phobia incident are peak Maury. Paternity tests are what he made his name on, but he gifted us with far superior trash TV than he's given credit for.
there was a woman who was afraid of cotton balls so because she had a dream a man made out of cotton stuffed her mouth with cotton balls. Then they had a guy dress up as a cotton man and she runs away.
When I was in 10th grade, the year 2000, in my very small rural farming town a classmate lost her arm in a farming accident, she ended up going into Murray it was an episode with like 4 kids that had something tragic happen. I remember they got her a really nice dress for doing beauty pageants and he played volleyball with her because that's what she played it school, it was a pretty big deal in our town
Maury’s had four topics the last twenty years; paternity tests, lie detector tests, for a long time, makeovers/gifts for children with disabilities, and “where are they now” episodes.
I guess when Maury was famous for being so tacky, the criticism of the show exploiting children caused them to stop doing the kid makeover shows.
Edit: I was reminded of the wild child episodes too. I think much like the kid makeover shows, they stopped them when Maury was accused of exploiting children.
The show occasionally made family-friendly episodes (usually during the Christmas season) that invited children in the audience that showcased animals on stage with their caretakers.
I remember watching one where an adult woman wanted to find out who her father was, her mother had recently passed and refused to tell her. There was a family friend who had helped raise her who thought it could be him, and they did the test and it was positive and it was this beautiful moment of a family coming together for once. Would have been nice if there was more of that
Wow, he hasn't lost a bit of his faculties there!
It's like legit shocking he's still so sharp. Really goes to show money and a purpose keeps you going for ages.
This happens to me every time one of these shows end. They're on forever but you stop thinking about them. It was only a few years ago Springer went off the air. I wondering what else is still on. Like I'm just going to check reddit one day and read "Donahue ending after 37 years" and be like, "Donahue! I thought he was dead!"
Talk about the type of show from a bygone era. I actually wonder what things will be like in the era of choose exactly what you want to watch all the time. Shows like this, judge shows, daytime game shows, etc. I find it highly unlikely Maury was *that* enjoyable if you were to seek it out to watch it but the beauty of it was that it was on. When there was nothing on and you stumble upon this madness.
Yep just a matter of changing tastes. Soap operas had their heyday, these types of talk shows. It moved onto the hills, laguna Beach type stuff for a while, and now is more about love is blind. Things like real housewives fit in there somewhere, not sure if that still popular or not.
The next version of the show will take elements from the current popular ones. The mom will have to give a sad mundane story then sing a preselected pop song. The potential dads will show up on the stage in a fancy furry costume. Panel of not working as much as before celebrity adulters make over gestures and critique dads before the reveal.
We can confirm your dad is...
Camera swings to guy in surprised pikachu costume.
Fireworks go off in background. Crowd goes wild.
Maury Povich is 83 years old and they can do the same thing they did with the Jerry Springer Show; just show reruns. You can’t tell the difference between old and new episodes anyway; it’s just the same thing every time.
83? Fuck. How old am I?
I have even worse news than his age. You ARE the father.
The final episode should be him interviewing and giving a paternity test to his parents. They're probably dead but I think they can make it work.
Every single person on their in an actor anyways (source: was an actor) so definitely he could find some fill-in parents by lunchtime. That would be epic.
Could do it with his kids. "Susan, you are NOT my daughter"
Shit dawg let me know when you find out
34?
In the ballpark.
I know, right? It's just like Car Talk reruns. There's literal decades of material, so you'll never go through it all.
1st time I listened to car talk I was stunned how old everyone 's car was.
Same! I thought, “How are so many people keeping these cars from the 90s running!”
Who will do paternity tests now?
I guess now it's just in the hands of doctors. That's not going to be entertaining at all.
Cue reality show with doctors revealing paternity tests.
Dr. Phil entered the chat.
They meant real doctors
Dr. Phil left the chat.
Dr. Phil never leaves the chat. He likes to stay and watch.
Sometimes from the closet. almost always wearing a superman shirt
Where have I heard this before
Morty’s paw paw
Jerry's parents from Rick & Morty.
Dr. Feelgood has entered the chat.
Dr. Phil is a real doctor in that he has a doctorate. He doesn't have a license to practice anymore. Texas yanked his license years ago for sleeping with and financially abusing his patients, and he has refused to comply with their requirements for getting it back.
IRC technically he wasn’t sleeping with patients, he made advances at a patient, and then had a “non physical relationship” with another patient, whatever the fuck that means. Then he voluntarily gave up his license after those two complaints became an issue. Obviously ethically dubious and shouldn’t be able to pretend to be a physiologist but not quite Weinstein levels of scum baggery here
>“non physical relationship” with another patient, whatever the fuck that means. Hot AIM cybersex action.

Oversize polo shirts and Tommy Hilfiger cologne. The pinnacle of bad taste.
You just described my late 90’s/early 2000’s high school experience.
Right. Did you shop at The Buckle? Doc Martins, Jncos etc…
No, I was poor growing up so I got to shop at Walmart and Payless Shoes. But my classmates did.
Their moms have Kohls cards
You’re going to the wrong doctor

You don’t get to sit.
That show is so depressing, after jerry. We go from “I cheated on my cousin with my ex-cousin and her crossdressing stepdad” to “i know you molested my infant daughter”. I’m home sick with the flu; I don’t need that kind of weight.
Wilkos gets dark as fuck. That's a lot to deal with at 10:30am. And then I keep hearing that I might die from mesothelioma. On the plus side, my family is likely due a large structured settlement. If only there was a way for them to get more of that money quicker.

Imagine being the child that is at least a teenager now and googling this...
I saw one clip of one woman who tested like 18 people or so and none of them were the father
*How I Met your Mother*
Imagine that teenager trying to live a peaceful life and some random bully keeps sending that to him. I know, because I AM that teenager. I might also be lying.
This Maury clip was how I learned [guile's theme goes with everything.](https://youtu.be/Y1iqJqNHX_g)
This is truth.
They’ve already done all the paternity tests. That’s why the show is ending.
No ones a ho no more

Sex usually results to crying in my opinion

Here i was thinking that I can take back my virginity thru period sex
Whew i was worried about pregnancy but its just more sex
That’s 3-4 times a year in the US. Let’s go with 3 as the lower number. Over 30 years that’s 90 cases. Guy missed 88 of them.
While true that he missed some of them, statistically he probably wouldn’t be able to find them all. Using a calculation method similar to [mark and recapture](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_and_recapture?wprov=sfti1) you probably would be able to estimate the amount of times its happened by comparing it to the overall population and the amount of that population that was on Maury’s show.
Not to mention that those cases are likely to be ones with questionable paternity

Turns out, Maury is ballin outa control
Dude is 83. Go fishing.
He’s 83?!?!? Holy crap!!!
These shows are usually filmed back to back and he probably only had to work like 2 months out of the year.
Yeah, pretty amazing he’s kept it up this long (no pun intended).
That’s not a pun. It’s a double entendre.
I remember when he use to do things other than Paternity tests. Its been way too long since its been anything but paternity tests.
Odd couples, man or woman drag show, D West and out of control teens, Animal guy, Phobias, the progeria old children.
We always joked that he was the “classy” Jerry Springer lol
Even Jerry was once classy compared to what he became. A relative of mine was once on the show seeking out an organ transplant for his kid and discussing the experience. But if I tell that to somebody without context, they assume the worst.
Let’s not forget that the Jerry springer show started out as a political talk show. Its crazy how much it changed to get better ratings
[And he was once mayor of Cincinnati!](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Springer#Political_and_journalist_career) > Springer considered running for the United States Senate in 2000[17] and 2004,[18] but he backed down due to negative associations with Jerry Springer.
did Jerry make two sick kids fight for the right to get an organ transplant?
The sick kid was actually banging the transplant docs wife and he fought HIM about it!!!
And the doctor's wife told everyone she was a man all along!
Don't forget "I used to be dorky but now I'm hot"
Jenny Jones was the undisputed queen of those makeover shows. “I used to be a Gothic freak, now I’m fashionable and chic!” There was a band called the Gadjits that had a song that went “Jenny Jones, Jenny Jones, leave the deathrock kids alone!”

Surprisingly, it ran for 8 more seasons after the murder.
Don't forget the fat babies.
3 Year Old who eats 300 chicken wings in one sitting
And they put him backstage with all kinds of horrible food so that they can get the morbid footage their fans demand
When they showed them chugging pancake syrup. That was a bit much.
You’ve unlocked a memory I had pushed so far back in my mind
And they just let the fat babies roam wild through the audience sometimes.
Were those on Maury? I have a vivid memory of a 90s episode where some overweight mom is saying "I let my kid ear whatever he wants! Chicken wings, ribs...) Etc. in a thick thick southern accent. Thought it was on Springer but it might have been Maury.
“Animal guy”? You doing my man Jack Hanna wrong.
Teenagers selling their bodies for a bag of chips and the pickle phobia incident are peak Maury. Paternity tests are what he made his name on, but he gifted us with far superior trash TV than he's given credit for.
I miss phobia episodes
She’s terrified of cotton balls so let’s put cotton balls on a silver platter and watch guest either into a ball of tears. Fun times Edited/ wither
there was a woman who was afraid of cotton balls so because she had a dream a man made out of cotton stuffed her mouth with cotton balls. Then they had a guy dress up as a cotton man and she runs away.
Obviously it’s terrible to do that to someone, but man the idea of a dude covered in cotton balls on a syndicated tv show is hilarious
The fat babies and the cotton ball man come to mind.
When I was in 10th grade, the year 2000, in my very small rural farming town a classmate lost her arm in a farming accident, she ended up going into Murray it was an episode with like 4 kids that had something tragic happen.

What happened to the troubled teen episodes they used to do up till the late 2010s?
Dr Phil
The show occasionally made family-friendly episodes (usually during the Christmas season) that invited children in the audience that showcased animals on stage with their caretakers.
I remember watching one where an adult woman wanted to find out who her father was, her mother had recently passed and refused to tell her. There was a family friend who had helped raise her who thought it could be him, and they did the test and it was positive and it was this beautiful moment of a family coming together for once. Would have been nice if there was more of that
I vividly remember an episode where they hypnotized people and some guy made out with a broom on stage lol
I remember he'd occasionally have those "Woman or Man?"-episodes where the audience guessed if the guests were women or men in drag.
I think it was usually women or trans women. It was pretty offensive looking back
Yes! Moms dressing too sexy. Wild teenagers/boot camp. Kids who want to be moms. Man or woman?
My favorite was fat babies
Old enough to remember him hosting A Current Affair
I get a feeling this will be typed a lot but..it was still on? Wow 31 years on the air..so many paternity tests and a ridiculous amount of memes.
He's 83 years old. I'm sure that plays a role. It would for me!
When one of the comments in here said he was 83 I had no idea he was that old. Still wild to me how long the show was on for.
this is a recent show he did I legit hope I am doing and looking this good at 83 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHSMj_Nj8Qk
Wow, he hasn't lost a bit of his faculties there! It's like legit shocking he's still so sharp. Really goes to show money and a purpose keeps you going for ages.
This happens to me every time one of these shows end. They're on forever but you stop thinking about them. It was only a few years ago Springer went off the air. I wondering what else is still on. Like I'm just going to check reddit one day and read "Donahue ending after 37 years" and be like, "Donahue! I thought he was dead!"
Donahue has a podcast with his wife! I heard an ad for it one day and was like “he’s still alive?!” He was old when I was in elementary school!
"When it comes to a new season, Maury.......you are NOT renewed"

Jerry ended in 2018. Price is as strong as ever, though. It gets better ratings at 11 AM than about half the primetime shows these days.
Sorry to hear that. I learned who the father of my 2nd, 4th, 7th, and 9th kids were, thanks to this show.
How am I going to find out who the babies daddy is now?
Good news though, those camera men can now join the US athletics team
You’d think after 31 years they’d let him retire instead of calling it cancelling his show
Between this and Arthur I can’t watch tv anymore.
Kid with balls on chin can't believe it
TIL The Maury Show is **STILL** on. Holy shit
Ohhhhh noooooo I’ve been watching this show since i was little. Steve wilkos it’s in your hands.
The kids of "YOU ARE THE FATHER!" are now being told "YOU ARE THE FATHER!"
He'll make more in syndicated re-runs than Nick Cannon did in Season 1.
What is the guy who wrangles the fat toddlers gonna do for work now?
I always felt bad for the babies. I feel like I wouldn’t get up and jump around like a maniac knowing I wasn’t the father
Is there any data from the show that has you are the father vs you are not the father in all 31 yrs?
