Jerry Springer: The Ringmaster (1998) *
A wholesome picture about a typical, dysfunctional, all-American, trailer-trash family invited to appear on the Jerry Springer Show. Their problems - a stepfather sleeping with a stepdaughter, and a mother's giving blowjobs to her daughter's fiance. Considering the subject matter, the film is amazingly conventional, lacking any shock value whatsoever.
