Despite its many critics, “The Jerry Springer Show” was a ratings powerhouse and ran for 27 seasons before ending in 2018. Springer remained a fixture in the entertainment industry and continued to host other shows and make regular appearances on television.
News of Springer’s passing has been met with an outpouring of tributes from fans and colleagues, who remember him as a larger-than-life personality with a knack for entertaining and engaging audiences.
