I\'ve worked with Jerry on Price - he\'s very good. And his name recognition gets large crowds. No jokes need to be made.
Matt, about 3 months ago, Jerry hosted a show about 40 minutes away (Newport News, Va.). Were you at that particular show? I unfortunately couldn\'t make it.
I saw Jerry at the Wheeling, WV TPIR Live show. He was surprisingly good. He was funny and seemed to care about the contestants. You could tell at times he wasn\'t sure of a couple format technicalities but he took it all in stride and joked that \"he had no idea what he was doing\" (even though he had done the Live show before). It was a good time.
Saw the Columbus, Ohio live show last week. We had Mark L Walberg. He was pretty good as well.
You know, even if his talk show scrapes the bottom of the barrel, you can\'t really say Springer isn\'t a competent emcee. I thought he did a decent job at America\'s Got Talent and he does just as good if not better on Baggage.
If you get a chance, check him out hosting UK Greed in the early 2000s. I liked him there too.
