For 26 years Jerry Springer has entertained America by showcasing the wacky struggles of everyday people. While the show has been insulted for years for being over the top and for exploiting the people that choose to go on it, I believe that it's a show that deserves it's long run and that everyone should watch.

And here's 5 reasons why:

1. The people who come on the show:

While "The Jerry Springer Show" recycles the same controversies, it's still so amusing to watch all the fighting and yelling.

2. The audience:

Whether it's an audience reaction or the audience roast session, the audience really makes what goes on in the show to be really really funny.

3. Jerry:

Jerry Springer causes enough controversy by himself, but to have him just casually watch his guests' lives fall apart is a funny enough reason to watch this show.

4. A lot of wacky:

Is "The Jerry Springer Show" full of fighting and yelling? Yes. But! While there's a lot of crazy conflicts, there are also times where the show is just crazy, goofy, wacky fun.

5. It's simply iconic:

Every person in this country has watched and knows Jerry Springer, so why don't you get to know him too! There's a world of references to Jerry and his show all over pop culture from Austin Powers to The Simpsons. You can join in on the madness, understand references, and talk to your friends and family about what you saw on Jerry Springer.

So go on, watch happily, I hope you can find some happiness in your future endeavors and until next time, take care of yourself and each other.
