Members Gray Bunny Posted July 27, 2012 Members Share Posted July 27, 2012 Buwahahah... the trained seals comment totally reminds me of the Wendy Williams audience whenever she's talking about a celebrity, LOL I'm definitely gonna check her out. I love Ricki Lake. I didn't always follow her show; I did in the early days but eventually lost interest, but I always liked her as a person. And yes, no matter how outrageous, she always presented herself in a professional manner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted July 27, 2012 Members Share Posted July 27, 2012 I always loved Ricki until she was on Dancing With the Stars. I found something about her very off putting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted July 28, 2012 Members Share Posted July 28, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vIsfJ6D4dE ALL of the 90s talk shows were lively and fun, but Ricki definitely had the most party-like atmosphere. I truly hope she keeps it light on the new show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted July 28, 2012 Members Share Posted July 28, 2012 Same here. Although I also disliked her a bit from her 90s show because of how anti-male it always seemed to me. I swear the story could have been some girl who had slept around with a dozen guys was going to confess to her bf that he may not be the father of the child she was carrying, and the audience would still boo the boyfriend when he came out!

Members Soapsuds Posted February 4, 2013 Members Share Posted February 4, 2013 LOL...just saw it on my DirecTV schedule. I saw one episode and thought it was just awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 4, 2013 Members Share Posted February 4, 2013 I'd almost forgotten she even had a show. She came across very poorly on DWTS, not exactly a great way to relaunch herself in the public eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wingwalker Posted February 5, 2013 Members Share Posted February 5, 2013 Not surprising. Though I'm a bit sad. When I found out she was returning to daytime I was excited. I LOVED her 90s talkshow, but her new one, was nothing like it and boring. I think she tried to make it more "adult" or "Oprah like" instead of "fun trashy" like her 90s one. I think she should have stuck to what worked for her in the 90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dragonflies Posted February 5, 2013 Members Share Posted February 5, 2013 I don't think what she did in the 90's would be good now, we have too many shows like that: Springer, Povich come to mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted February 5, 2013 Members Share Posted February 5, 2013 I am amazed to see Jerry Springer still going strong, I think he got renewed through 2017 last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted February 5, 2013 Members Share Posted February 5, 2013 lol....hence why she's cancelledI also think she's too old for that. Probably not the right word, but I think her image has matured beyond that. Her old show was a bit ghetto and controversial and I dont think that a show like that would be a good fit for her now in her 40s as it was in her 20s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted February 5, 2013 Members Share Posted February 5, 2013 This is how the meeting went down: " Go Ricki! Go Ricki! Go Ricki! No, but seriously. Go Ricki. You're cancelled. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
