Review of Maury

Maury (1991–2022)
Some people just don't try
28 January 2003
As much as I hate to admit it, I used to watch this show, and that was when they had wild teens going to jail or boot camp or wherever. But lately all this show talks about is hideously disfigured or deformed children, people being scared to death of the stupidest things, makeovers, "is it a man or a woman?", "which is the mother and which is the daughter?", people who cheat on their spouses or lovers and, the absolute worst episodes, paternity tests. On those episodes, when Maury says "So-and-so, you are not the father" and the baby's mother freaks out and runs offstage bawling, well, let's just say you don't need a PhD to figure out that it's all rehearsed. It's like watching a really badly rehearsed rendition of that scene in "A Christmas Story" where Ralphie goes "It, it was...soap...poisoning!". I've got the perfect advice for the people on those episodes: stay out of bed and keep it zipped. If you ask me, I wouldn't be surprised if this show got the ax by the end of the year, and frankly, I wish it would.
