Jerry Springer & Tom Green take over CW39 KIAH

The King of Trash Talk meets the King of Pranks

Talk stars collided at the CW39 KIAH studios Thursday. The ringmaster himself Jerry Springer stopped by and so did comedian and MTV star Tom Green.

The two television staples had a pow wow in the middle of the NewsFix news room. I wonder if any chairs were thrown? Did anyone touch their bum to anything?

Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! was in Houston to meet with CW39 staff members because his show is turning the big 2-5 this year. That's right, if you remember the early days of Springer when he brought us such classics as "I married a horse," then you are old.

Get this, I worked in a TV market in the 90s where the Springer show was beating most of the 10pm newscasts.

The new season of the Springer Show starts September 21st.

I've been a fan of Tom Green since his MTV days. Been a fan of his talk shows including his new Webovision launch ever since. Green also does stand up comedy, which is the reason he's in Houston and Texas this month.
