72. My mum used to watch her daily

Those guys were on frequently, not just once, and both pseudo docs had their own shows thanks to her studio. She did indeed force-feed them to us and bankrolled them into stardom of sorts.

The woman has always bounced from one “great” idea to another, like a ping pong ball. I suspect having to pick her guests five days a week made her weirdly incapable of focusing on one thing for too long, but they were all the most fabulous, fascinating thing as she gushed and sold them to her fans.

Damn, even as a teenager, I was pissed that this crap is what replaced Phil Donohue.
