The Jerry Springer Show
Debuting in 1991, The Jerry Springer Show ran for 27 seasons, taping over 3,800 episodes. With exotic and drama-fueled episodes like “I’m Not a Hot College Girl … I’m a Man”, “I Won’t Share My Baby’s Daddy” and “My Stripper Sister Strikes Again,” even the host himself, Jerry Springer, said, “I would never watch my show.” Still, Springer made it out with around $8 million per season during the show’s peak.
