Jerry Springer Hosts GSN’s “Baggage”

You can’t be sneaky and say that Jerry Springer is hosting "Baggage", GSN’s new perplexing non-dating dating show for non-single singles, before flagging the Craigslist article for removal.

It’s still cached in Google. It doesn’t hurt that Hollywood Junket brought it up also. That’s right.


The controversial talk show host has been tapped to host the new GSN show. As I said before, the show completely confuses me. It’s basically a dating show, but they are very keen on saying that you don’t have to date anyone during the show. You just have to appear.

They also say you don’t have to be single, you just have to appear to be single. I’m not quite sure what appearing to be single means, but there you go.




More than anything it seems like a very mellow version of the MTV dating show "Singled Out", but what do I know.

"Baggage" has been picked up for 40 episodes and has no set debut just yet. Keep checking. GSN needs a hit and they seem to be abandoning getting any other audiences for their originals and going solely for the middle aged women with this one.

I can’t entirely blame them given they have an awful track record without the help of some former executives who brought in "Catch 21" and "Newlywed Game" who aren’t there anymore.


But at least they are trying to appease the classic fans and are bringing back "Card Sharks" and the popular new show "Million Dollar Password" in April.
