Jerry Springer's long-running TV show, which premiered in 1991, has ceased production and will only air pre-taped episodes when it moves to The CW this fall. Unless The CW orders new episodes, the Springer show is done filming.

It makes sense that The Jerry Springer Show wouldn't survive the Trump presidency
(https://www.esquire.com/entertainment/tv/a21561770/jerry-springer-ending/)"Who needs to watch the actual show when we're currently living in a Springer hellscape?" says Matt Miller. "RIP Springer, and thank you for ushering in our current dystopia."

Jerry Springer has Stopped Making "The Jerry Springer Show"

Jerry Springer has refereed his last catfight and interviewed his last stripper. After 4,000 episodes and 27 seasons, "The Jerry Springer Show" is calling it quits.

The AP reports that NBC Universal quietly made the decision to shutter the show that has aired in syndication since 1991. Although there was no big announcement about the cancellation, the producers told the AP that “there is a possibility” of more originals in the future.

But rest assured, Springer lovers: reruns of the show will continue to air in some markets that can never get enough of all that chair-throwing.





Springer, 74, did not release a statement about the show’s cancellation, but he recently commented about rumors of the show’s demise to ET‘s Kevin Frazier.

“We’ve stopped production of the show,” he said. “Whenever you make changes, it’s sad.”
