I am going back to the days when it was righteous.

Jerry Springer - Should be president of every country on Earth. Especially Scotland.

Riki Lake - an actual sane chat show host.

Maury Povich - the funniest thing i saw on the little header on the screen 'she got crabs from sleeping with lots of men' .

Jenny Jones - interesting shows ranging from gang violence to dress up specials to 'secret crushes!' .

Ellen (obviously many years later from the othrs)- because she is hot, ambitious and everybody all of a sudden hated her because she did not endorse Trump.

Yes, early starts and early finishes meant i could sit back eat a pile of sandwiches and cups of tea and fizzy drinks and watch US chat shows. This was in the days before Jeremy Kyle sprang onto the stage and made a living out of humiliating people and their wrecked relationships in front of millions daily.

Who was your chat show faves?
