    Which confrontational talk show moment made you feel the most uncomfortable?
  • @Shoobadawoop
    Today I found out that Ellen DeGeneres once forced Mariah Carey to admit she was pregnant on the Ellen show. At first Mariah was not really wanting to answer, so Ellen was like “hehehe okay fine then lets toast with some champagne to you not being pregnant ;)”... obviously Mariah had to decline the alcohol and admit she was pregnant to everyone. Three weeks later she miscarried. Something so heartbreakingly sensitive that should have been able to be handled in private and secrecy was then forced out into the open. Ellen sucks.

    "Actually no, that's not the truth, Ellen. You were invited."
  • @lisasangria1086
    "Perhaps you'd like two more chairs to contain your intellect"....brilliant!!!
  • “Perhaps you’d like two more chairs to contain your giant intellect”😂
  • Why invite someone for an "interview" when you're just going to roast them for views? That's not an interview
  • @ericjohn8466
    The Cavett takedown of Mailer is SAVAGE!!! Mr Intellect was left speechless.
  • @irshgrl500
    I love Dick Cavett. What an absolute class act. Cavett to Mailer: "Perhaps you'd like two more chairs to contain your giant intellect".
  • @jettsoma
    I remember the Geraldo one, and everyone was glad that his nose got broken. Love the last one!
  • @pixiedust429
    That clip with Dakota Johnson on Ellen's show gets funnier each time. Savage haha
  • @sauly.32
    If my friends dragged me to the Wendy williams show, I would be on my phone too.
  • @travisrscott75
    I remember when Geraldo got hit with that chair I laughed and laughed
  • The Dick Cavett segment was the best, in my opinion. He was absolutely savage…
  • @sunmanken1973
    I swear, these would be so much more entertaining if this channel would let us see more of the actual interactions and less time describing it to us. We are here to see the compilation of the footage more than hear your take on it.
  • @Crayolapup
    I bet you 100%, Ellen’s producer was internally like, “Please don’t put me on the spotlight. I don’t want to say anything that could risk me getting fired or blacklisted *Cries*”. Lol
  • @alvshill
    Burt Reynolds landed that cream pie with so much force that guy was stumbling around. Real beef!
  • Actually the vast majority of people thought Jim Everett came off very well indeed in his refusal to take Jim Rome's obnoxious disrespect any longer. He warned him clearly and could've beaten Rome to a pulp, but instead simply shoved the little chirper down and left him in a heap.
