Studio NBCUniversal has halted production on the long-running daytime series The Jerry Springer Show for the time being, Broadcasting & Cable first reported.
Meanwhile, Jerry Springer’s popularity has waned in recent years but the show did beat The Ellen Show’s ratings back in 2010.
In 2007, the show launched the spin-off The Steve Wilkos Show hosted by Springer’s former head of security Steve Wilkos, who gained massive popularity for his firm but fair approach to guests.
The series premiered September 30, 1991 on NBC and quickly made a name for itself as one of the trashiest shows on television.
