View Full Version : TV Show Titles That Are Only Names
JamesG 03-24-2026, 12:03 AM I'm not looking for show titles that are "The ______ _____ Show".
"The Mary Tyler Moore Show" would not count, however "Lou Grant" would.
Honorific titles will also be accepted, such as "Mr. Belvedere", and shows with "&" like "Cagney & Lacey".

This is a comparable case as with Donahue.
I did check before posting but should have gone deeper, as the Wikipedia link under Springer's bio article just said "Jerry Springer" for the title of his show.
However:
A. K. A. "Jerry Springer" and note the claimed long duration use of the logo:

Many of those talk shows were informally known as Jerry Springer, Donahue, Oprah, Montel, Jenny Jones… however their official titles were The ____ _____ Show. There are a few exceptions, such as “Sherri”.
By the way, Phil Donahue did have a short-lived show on MSNBC named “Donahue” from 2002-03.
JamesG 04-23-2026, 12:58 PM Keeping Faith
No, the title features the word “Keeping”.
