Maury is an American first-run syndicated talk show that was hosted by Maury Povich. It ran for thirty-one seasons from September 9, 1991, to September 8, 2022, in which it broadcast 5,545 episodes. The show frequently featured paternity tests that determined if participants were father of a child or not.
It was produced by MoPo Productions Inc. in association with Paramount Domestic Television. The show began unofficially using the title Maury in the 1995–1996 season, although its original title remained official until 1998, when Studios USA (now NBCUniversal) took over production and the show was officially retitled Maury. MoPo Productions Inc continued to co-produce with NBCUniversal throughout the rest of the show's run. For the series' first 18 seasons, it was taped in New York City's Grand Ballroom; from 2009 until its end in 2022, the show was taped at the Rich Forum in Stamford, Connecticut, which is alternatively known as the Stamford Media Center, along with NBC's other syndicated programming.
With a run spanning 31 seasons, Maury is the longest-running daytime talk show with a single host in American history.
