MUST WATCH TV –
NEW YORK, Jan. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ABC Network premieres the highly anticipated three-part Prime Time series, “Dirty Talk.” At the center of this exposé is Dr. Jamie Huysman, a licensed therapist who spent two decades as the “lonesome cowboy” clinician inside the volatile world of Talk Television.
Dr. Huysman is now calling on news journalists, podcasters, and influencers to join a critical conversation about the legacy of “STARs”—Survivors of Toxic Abusive Relationships—and the predatory industry that turned human suffering into a global spectacle.
In “Dirty Talk,” Dr. Huysman reflects on his 20-year journey navigating a “daily warzone” orchestrated by global entertainment titans. He describes an industry acting as a collective malignant narcissist, following a ruthless cycle:
- The Prop Up: Identifying individuals in acute mental health crises.
- The Display: Fueling traumatic “hell” under studio lights for ratings.
- The Disposal: Discarding guests once the cameras stopped rolling, leaving a trail of relapses and broken families.
