The Greg Behrendt Show is a daytime talk show that premiered in syndication on September 12, 2006. The show was distributed by Sony Pictures Television and was taped at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City.[1]
In addition to airing in syndication, the show was carried nationwide over Superstation WGN, which aired the show at 2 PM ET until its final weeks when they moved the show to 2 AM ET. The network replaced the show with The Steve Wilkos Show in the slot following its final episode. The show was also streamed on the Sony website.
Stand-up comedian and writer Greg Behrendt presided over a show that more often than not discussed relationship problems with couples of all types.[2][3] Other episodes included makeover shows (called "Greg-overs" on the show) and confrontations about other issues not related to a relationship.
In each and every episode, the following segments aired:
- The Uncomfortable Phone Call: Greg and a guest would speak with someone on the phone (who could be heard in the studio) and discuss a problem that the guest and that person had.
- Greg Behrendt Undercover: Towards the end of every episode, a hidden camera segment featuring Behrendt would focus on something in a humorous manner (e.g., how a supermarket is really a haven for any kind of sexual fetish you might have).
