Hosted by former radio host Jeremy Kyle, the show began in 2005 and dealt with current hot-button issues, including [[DaddyDNATest DNA tests]], affairs, alcohol[=/=]drug use, dysfunctional families, abuse and more. Jeremy also used a [[LieDetector lie detector]] in cases involving accusations between guests involved in infidelity, familial disputes or thefts. There were also numerous [[VerySpecialEpisode special episodes]] that deal with unique cases like physical[=/=]mental illnesses, prostitution and celebrities.

A Channel 4 documentary broadcast in 2022 alleged serious malpractice in the production, with guests deliberately riled up and manipulated, the staff themselves not being treated much better. Kyle is currently taking legal action over claims he sees as defamatory.

* BitchInSheepsClothing: Many guests are revealed to be this at times. A major example is a woman named Zara, who claims to be caught in the middle between her estranged husband and her friend. Said husband blames the friend for ruining their marriage while she in turn sees him as a BastardBoyfriend. It turns out that [[ManipulativeBitch Zara]] has been [[MaliciousSlander badmouthing one to the other so that their animosity would be focused on each other.]] [[FaceHeelDoubleTurn All so she can steal said friend's husband from her]].

** {{Up To Eleven}} and [[DeconstructedTrope Deconstructed]] in one case - a guest had absolutely horrible teeth (her incisors were sticking out at 40 degree angles and the teeth beside them were completely gone) because she accidentally smashed her face into a street light as a kid. She was on the show because of the extreme bullying she received from another guest [[KickTheDog who dismissed her onstage by yelling at her to brush her teeth.]] After her appearance, her Facebook wall was vandalized by trolls who were making fun of her appearance. [[PetTheDog The Aftercare team paid to have her teeth surgically fixed in a later episode,]] and it wasn't even a VerySpecialEpisode.
* BrutalHonesty: A signature part of most episodes involves Jeremy calling situations like he sees them, and he will not hesitate to lay into guests who lie (even those who initially presented themselves to be the "wronged" party).

** A large slice of its viewing demographic is inclined to treat the show as this. Others might shake their heads in disbelief and see it as a Point-And-Weep Show. Maybe encouraging people in the affluent AB demographic to see it as a freak show, parading egregious members of the underclass for the entertainment of their social betters, gets the big-money advertising in. It is certainly repeated later in the day on other ITV channels, and it is noticeable how the quality and type of the adverts is completely different - more upmarket products aimed at affluent people.

->''Of course, it's not really fair to call [''The Jeremy Kyle Show''] a show, because it's more a distinguished public forum for civilized debate. Sorry, did I say civilized debate?
