    Premise: Common people with interesting problems are confronted by Maury and audience questions

Why Maury Povich Show might be annoying:

    It is the show where an old Jewish man and his strangely urban, predominately Black audience watch the breakdowns of relationships.
    The audience constantly swears, causing the audio to be cut out about every five seconds.
    Maury commends the bravery of the women that come on the show multiple times to test men for paternity.
    They always show a poorly edited rebuttal from the accused father containing many bleeped out words.
    They use lie detector tests, which have been proven to be not entirely fool-proof or accurate.
    Everyone is always '100% sure' about everything (that they are the father, that they aren't the father, etc.)
    If Maury really cared about the mom, why doesn't he reveal the results of the paternity test right away and skip the embarrassing pre-paternity test drama?
    It is incredibly depressing.
    Some critics think its worse than the 'Jerry Springer Show' as it is loaded with false sincerity.

Why Maury Povich Show might not be annoying:

    If you don't like Oprah Winfrey and you're unemployed, this might be your only choice.
    Like George W. Bush, it did it all for the kids!
    It keeps Maury Povich out of your garbage.
