For example if one guest is on the show to express a problem with another guest, the audience boo's the other guest and makes crede remarks. This type of behavior is not encouraging or helping anyone. I also see that talk show and guest are not taken seriously but made a joke of. The topics are so unbeliveable that you can not have much respect for the guest or the talk show. Instead of trying to listen, people watch to see how obsurd the show and guest can be.
Talk shows show no social value.
Talk shows are nothing more than staged trailer-trash. The producers,and scriptwriters know what atrracts viewers. Violence interests people, especially when it doesn't involve them directly. Its kinda of like seeing a fight on the street, people might think its wrong, but their going to stand there and watch the whole thing becasue its exciting to them. Today there are more than a few talk shows on the air.
