Ricki Lake

Ricki has gone downhill in her time online.

It was never great television but in recent years it's degenerated to stupidity and smut.

I write this because I'm saddened. I used to like her. I still think she's an interesting personality. Yet she's allowed her show to become infected with the "cancer".

If you like smut and to watch stupid people doing what stupid people do best, you may like it. I find myself seeing too much of stupidity in daily life, personally.

Alas, poor Ricki. I once liked ye...

The Ricki Lake show currently in its nineth season is still the most popular chat show in the United Kingdom. After nine years on air the show is always coming up with fresh and exciting new ideas. While Jerry Springer is the undisputed king of daytime tv Ricki Lake is definatly the queen. Ricki in the past has won best talk show host at the British National Television awards, the only American host to have currently won the award.

The people who watch this don't know how to get online anyway. This is probably even worse than watching the home shopping network.

Well, it is. No interesting story's. Although Springer is bad, it still makes you laugh, where as this show dosen't amuse in any way whatsoever. It's rolled and rolled down the hill since it's first year. And i've seen the guests re-used, too.

Quality television this ain't, but it's still well worth a watch. Is it real? Who the hell knows! My guess is that most stories are real, but exaggerated. Either way Ricki is a great host. She knows the limits. She can have sassy spicy sexy (and other words beginning with S) shows. And she can also have sweet sentimental tear-jerking shows. She's one cool gal and I'm sure she's changed many peoples lives (for the better that is). Well worth a watch if you've got nothing to do and want to have a little bit of fun which doesn't involve much thinking.
