Crying at the TV

I find that most nights I cry at something on TV. During the Olympics I cried every time I saw the Union Jack being raised, I cry at repeats of Friends and Sex in the City, I cry buckets at documentaries like the one last week about Mandy. But nothing compares with the amount that I sobbed last night at the Jerry Springer programme, Who Do You Think You Are?

OMG, I was in floods.

Did anyone else watch it and does anyone else cry at the TV so much?
 
I do occasionally cry at the tv-usually at really romantic stuff, but must say i have never heard of someone crying as much as that.
The film i cried most at was ps.i love you,i have the dvd but will never watch it again because i know il cry just as much the second time round.

Blokes do cry at the tv, they just try to hide it. I do find myself crying quite often at tv programmes, the one about Mandy was a real tear jerker (her sheer grit and lack of why "me did" it for me). But missed the one about Jerry Springer, maybe it will be repeated sometime
 
I usually watch 'Who do you think you are?' but missed the Jerry Springer one. Can anybody give be a brief explanation of what was so moving?
 
one of my lcd tv's bust last night and i almost cried

does that count ?

getting a replacement in a few days so all is well :D

Well using Gayle's parameters for crying, it probably included four slappers talking about shopping while the Union Jack is raised in the background. :D

It's the programme where they trace their ancestry. Jerry Springer was born in London because his parents were Jewish migrants who escaped from Germany about two months before the second world war - most members of his family (uncles/aunts/grandparents) weren't so lucky.
 
I'm not one for crying at the television normally.

Last time I snivelled was when Nana died in The Royle Family.

That was the best piece of television.....ever. :alright:
 
The only time I cry at TV is around Five to five on a Saturday, I cry with laughing when the Dingles have been dongled again:D
 
I'll admit it I did in 1999 when Man United came back in injury time to beat Bayern Munich in the Champions League final.Tinks was gob smacked and couldnt believe it LOL:D
 
I just watched the Jerry Springer thing and found it very moving, especially the bit when he met a distant relative he had never known existed and the guy lives now in Israel. I know we read about and see TV programs about the Holocaust but when it's brought down to a personal level like that it is quite different.
 
I cry at anything sad on TV. Am a proper softy. I cried tonight when Jay lost his dad. bless.
 
Only ever cried once at the TV - when the result came through from Woking that meant we were back in the league after 44 years.
 
I used to cry very rarely at tv programmes but since I've had kids I'm so much more emotional, I didn't see the Jerry Springer thing but cried as if I'd lost a family member when Wellhard was put to sleep last week, cried when Nana died from Royle family, went to see Mamma Mia cried quite a lot through that during certain scene's anything remotely emotional sets me off these days.
