To actually quite like Jeremy Kyle?

So I don't really watch his show but am currently being treated to a repeat on ITV2. The title is 'Jeremy Kyle confronts knife crime' and whilst he is a bit smug and annoying, I actually quite like him. And the programme is really informative.

That's it really...

...let the berating begin

LOL, do it Notalone do it. In the name of erm....us! do it.......................unless you don't want to be on telly. Pepole who egg slebs always seem to get on tv. They love egging more than punching those media types.

Morloth, thank God for that. But is it the show or the lovely Jeremy that floats your 'naughty' boat?

Look at how much he's enjoying this, it's sick.

Morloth · 21/05/2009 14:33

I think he knows how to make good television. (that was diplomatic wasn't it? )

The people who are on there just confuse me. I wonder how your life gets so complicated, where do they get the energy?!

YABU

JK Is a TIT!!!!

JemL · 21/05/2009 16:07

shootfromthehip - you are not alone. My sister loves him.

She is in the process of devising a game called Jeremy Kyle Bingo - all his top phrases ("put something on the end of it!" "who pays for these kids you keep having? I do!") on a card (laminated, of course) which you tick off as you watch. She is an office temp, and has a lot of time on her hands...!

Notalone · 21/05/2009 16:10

God - don't encourage me. I was always one of those kids whom if you dared me to do something I had to do it. But I do love eggs and it would be a waste.

oliviasmama · 21/05/2009 16:23

I am virtually addicted to that show ....and yes he is a complete TIT

pinkstarfish · 21/05/2009 16:31

Jeremy Vile Kyle is a male chauvinistic piglet.

Blondeshavemorefun · 21/05/2009 16:32

i like him as well

anyone must know that if they go on his show, they will be shouted and booed at

pinkdelight · 21/05/2009 16:44

In my weaker moments, I have been known to get quite moved when it seems like he's doing a genuinely good thing and helping people. But then I remember it's telly and that's the last thing he's probably arsed about. On the whole, I prefer Judge Judy.

Morloth · 21/05/2009 17:08

I love Judge Judy, she gets PAID to yell at stupid people, perfect job as far as I am concerned!

Worriedunfortunately · 21/05/2009 17:51

Love watching it, FACT.

wotulookinat · 21/05/2009 18:06

I don't like Jeremy Kyle. Vile guests, vile man.

Trikken · 21/05/2009 18:08

I LOVE Jeremy Kyle, I think anyone who goes onto his show knows what they're getting themselves into. He does get things sorted tho.

MrsMattie · 21/05/2009 18:08

He's 'orrid. I'd love to give him a slap.

MrsMattie · 21/05/2009 18:13

I live in hope that one day his wife will reveal that she slept with around 15 men (including his brother) around the time she conceived their children and wants a DNA test live on air.

Trikken · 21/05/2009 18:30

It would be interesting to watch, I will give you that. Some people do need a kick up the bum and thats what he gives them.

deste · 21/05/2009 19:38

Has anyone ever watched and thought "this is not real", ie the woman of in her 70's who wanted help her seriously ill alcoholic boyfriend who was in his 20's. When he came on stage I didn't think he looked ill and was having doubts about it being real or fake and he then went down on one knee and proposed. My daughter has an actress friend who has on her CV that she was an alchoholic mother on the Tricia show so I know they fake some shows.

" in her 70's who wanted to help her seriously ill alcoholic boyfriend"

Thats better.

stainesmassif · 21/05/2009 20:01

deste - i saw that one. funnily enough, i thought he did look pretty ropey. However, I do suspend my disbelief when watching. why, oh why would you want jezza to reconcile you with your alcoholic parents/sort out the parentage of your children / cure you of drug addiction / find out if your fiancy (deliberate mispelling) has been sleeping with your mum? it's all a mystery to me.

Has anyone seen Maury? like Kyle times 1000. Can't watch that often, each time I do, I feel a little bit of my soul has eroded.

FairLadyRantALot · 21/05/2009 20:04

YA definetely BVU shudder

nickytwotimes · 21/05/2009 20:06
