* WhatCouldHaveBeen: In 1996, Maury and Connie Chung [[https://www.nytimes.com/1996/06/06/arts/syndicated-program-for-chung-and-povich.html were in discussions]] with Creator/DreamWorksTelevision to launch a syndicated news program that was slated to air in 1998 once Maury's contract with Paramount expired. [[https://www.deseret.com/1998/7/14/19391218/povich-wants-to-do-sensational-without-sensationalizing According to Maury]], response from local stations nationwide was underwhelming, which caused [=DreamWorks=] to shelve the project, and the Universal version of his talk show debuted instead.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: As aforementioned, the 1991-1998 run is almost impossible to come across aside from bootlegging, due to ownership issues. Not even the Nosey video service, which showcases a large number of classic ''Maury'' episodes that haven't been seen in years, features any episodes from that era.

** Several guests, especially out of control teens, that have appeared on the show for things besides DNA/lie detector tests return because they need to find out if their significant other was cheating on them or to prove to someone they were the father of a child. One young woman named Jessica, who appeared on the show two times in 2005 because she was very out of control, reappeared numerous (5+) times over a span of 6 years because she was being cheated on by her significant other. This man also denied he was the father of both of their kids, they both were his, and somehow, they still are together. It's worth noting that a lot of times, especially when the former guest is an out of control teen, they don't reference their first appearances.
