A dark jewel in ITV’s daytime crown, it was once described by a judge sentencing a former guest as “a form of human bear-baiting”.

Jeremy Kyle show canned for its cruelty, say RICHARD AND JUDYJ - NOW that The Jeremy Kyle Show has been permanently taken off air by ITV, it's timely to remember that the genesis for this type of programme (described by a judge as a 'human form of bear-baiting going under the guise of entertainment' and the president of the Royal Society of Medicine as 'the theatre of cruelty') was The Jerry Springer Show, a daily trailer-trash punch-up hugely popular for years in America. More like Punch and Judy show 😂 Why did it take Richard and Judy so long to speak up about it ? It's 2019 bear bating or the modern Colosseum.Showing just how stupid some white trash are. Couldn't do it to blacks or Asians.

Question Time audience member blames Tories for the popularity of shows like Jeremy KyleOne of the biggest stories of the week here in the UK has been the cancellation of the controversial tabloid talk show The Jeremy Kyle Show. The long-running ITV programme was officially pulled from Absolutely true. Tories created PovertyPorn for their sick xheap thrills. Jeremy Kyle is probably a Tory or even a Tory donor, who knows. The LibDems - Conservatives austerity program created a booming market for him.

The Jeremy Kyle Show's popularity shows we are a society lacking in kindnessIn looking down on others – on their life choices, behaviours, clothes, accents – spectators were made to feel superior. I agree. You see a lot of people bragging about being horrid to others No, it shows we are a dysfunctional society with a very ugly underbelly! Voyeuristic....
