TV Guide Names ‘Jerry Springer’ Worst Show of All
I disagreed with TV Guide’s choice for best, but I agree with their choice of worst. Also well deserving to be on the list, at least to me, are Cop Rock, Howard Stern, and Still the Beaver and AfterMASH (both shameful to the originals). I’m sure many of the others are also so deserving, but I haven’t seen them. And some of the shows I have never heard of, such as Co-Ed Fever and Holmes & Yoyo.
