''Maury'' (sometimes known as ''The Maury Povich Show'') is a syndicated American tabloid talk show hosted by Maury Povich. When the series first aired in 1991, the show was called ''The Maury Povich Show'' and was produced by MoPo Productions in association with Paramount Domestic Television. The show adopted the title ''Maury'' in the 1995–1996 season. The show was then revamped in the 1998–1999 season, when Studios USA (now NBCUniversal) took over production. However, MoPo continues to co-produce with NBCUniversal. For the series' first 18 seasons, it was taped in New York City, but beginning with Season 19, the show has been taped in the Stamford Media Center in Stamford, Connecticut. ''Maury'' is one of four NBC Universal syndicated properties to make the move to Connecticut, joining the former Chicago-based ''Jerry Springer'' and ''Steve Wilkos'' shows. The fourth, the syndicated ''Deal or No Deal'', is no longer in production. ''The Trisha Goddard Show'' became the fourth show in production with NBC Universal. As of 2007, NBC owned and operated stations no longer air ''Maury''. On September 17, 2012, during the premiere of its 22nd season, episodes of ''Maury'' began airing in 1080i fullscreen. On March 26, 2013, ''Maury'' was renewed for an additional three years until 2018. ==Common show themes== ''Maury'' has dealt with a variety of issues across its 21 seasons, including—but not limited to—teenage pregnancy, sexual infidelity, paternity test results, uncommon illnesses, makeovers, "out of control" teenagers, transgender individuals, obese children, domestic violence, little people, bullying, and unusual phobias. After the taping of these episodes, guests are often tracked for progress, both on air and on the ''Maury'' website. The show in its early years covered topics of a serious nature, including gang warfare. From 2008 onwards, the most common topic is paternity testing, followed by lie-detector testing. Abusive relationships and "out-of-control" teen girls are approximately tied for a distant third. Updates on previous guests are also a theme, while other topics such as missing children, transgender individuals, and "caught on tape" moments are featured 1–2 times a year. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maury (TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
