The one with Springer's old security guy, Steve. Man, what a shitty show that is. He somehow managed to take 80% of Dr. Phil's holier-than-thou aura and mix it with 5% of Springer's charisma, wittiness, and hilariousness to form a steamy turd of a show. The other 15% is intimidating scrawny caterpillar-moustached 35 year olds into almost pissing themselves on stage until the crowd is cued to chant "Steve! Steve! Steve!"
I actually used to love Wilkos' first season when he threw chairs and threatened people. He was basically just a holier-than-thou thug. Now he's backed off and is just holier-than-thou for the most part. But for a little while it was a quality spectacle.
