The main appeal of this dreck is that Sally herself, in her sixties, takes on troubled teens (exclusively females) by pretending to stand up and take their fits of adolescent anger. While a nice trick, it doesn't stand up to reality: Sally could act as 'powerful' as she wanted while her two bouncers sit in the audience, ready to bound at the teen if the teen actually knocked her false teeth out.
And that is the show. A lot of yelling and fake threats and men in fatigues screaming at teens and claiming it 'cures' them. And lording over it all is a former welfare mother who claims to be at the top of her own crap factory.
Watch only if you want to see how badly a "Springer" ripoff is when it pretends to have a moral center. Sadly that a MST3K clone hasn't found the comedic potential in these wastes of time and effort.
