ITV - The Property Show

Advantages: An amusing TV Show gaurenteed to have you laughing.
Disadvantages: Audience members tend to shout out randomley which can be sometimes off putting.

...If you look over at the specific criteria you will see that in my opinion the ITV showing of The Jerry springer Show is unmemorable compared to similar programmes this is because if your not aware Jerry Springer also had a show on skys living channel were he was based in america.When doing this show in america it was certainly more enjoyable though the storylines that arose were some what similar you could always gaurentee it would be highly amusing to wacth.Many more stipulations were put in place when Jerry Sringer chose to bring these similar yet classics storys over to the UK.I would still recommend that its worth wacthing.Jerry springers sercurity guard Mr Steve Wilkos also travels with him over to the uk still allowing this show to be just has big a success as the american version....

Advantages: Good UEFA coverage
Disadvantages: Too many Soaps and too much Drama.

...ITV1 is going through a serious bad patch at the moment, after the phone line scandal and with programs like Ant and Dec's Takeaway the channel is not having the success that it had in the past and with falling revenue from advertising the company has decided to cut back on its regional programmes to absorb the drops in revenue.

One thing that really irritates me about the show is the amount of bleeps, from the swearing that is deemed unfit for us to hear at that time of day. The guests certainly do no favours to their country, enhancing the stereotypical view that all Americans are loud-mouthed & aggressive !

Jerry Springer is faultless as a presenter though - charming, intelligent, witty & masterminds the whole thing expertly. Recommended.... Read review
