She's mostly famous, though, for her 19-year run as host of TV's Sally Jessy Raphael. "My four guests today have a total of 337 personalities." That's Raphael, introducing a typical episode. Surprise paternity tests! My husband is a hermaphrodite! I'm 12 years old and pregnant! She often said that therapists were on-hand to counsel guests after taping her show. Raphael could be so warm you'd want to turn down the thermostat, but her trademark was getting in her guests' faces with snap moral judgments. Sally Jessy Raphael was one of the first "confrontation" shows, regularly staging "boot camps" for troubled kids and revelations of family secrets for the televised shock value. Raphael summarizes, "Our show is a modern day morality play which often serves as a wake-up call for guests who are on the wrong track." In 1996, a guest on the show said that he'd fathered a child with a 14-year-old girl. He was arrested when the program aired. On another very special Sally Jessy Raphael, the audience spent an hour helping the host decide which new frames to buy for her glasses. Raphael's show ended in 2002, after more than 4000 episodes. <hr width=25% size=1 align=left><a name="FN1">[1] Birth date frequently reported as 25 February 1943 (or 1942), but this is almost certainly too late.
