Maury! You are retired!

Maury! Maury! Maury!

After countless paternity tests and lie detector tests, the Maury Show says goodbye.

Host Maury Povich announced his daytime talk show is ending after 31 seasons.

The 83-year-old began the show in 1991, and became a platform to discuss addiction, infidelity, and teen pregnancy, all in front of a live studio audience.

The show was well known for its paternity and lie detector tests.

In a statement, Povich revealed he was ready to call it quits six years ago but decided to stay out of loyalty to NBCUniversal.

"As I occasionally tell my guests: 'Enough, already!'" Povich says.

The shows will end in September, but you can still catch the re-runs.

Geddy Lee appears on Murdoch Mysteries

It doesn't get much more Canadian than this.

Geddy Lee of Rush will be on tonight's episode of CBC's "Murdoch Mysteries."

Lee says he got the role when he met up with the show's star Yannick Bisson at a fundraiser.

"We just got chatting through the evening, and he said, 'Why don't you come and hang out with us one day?'"

"And I said, 'Sure sounds like fun!'"

The rocker plays Tom Sawyer (a nod to Rush's song by the same name), a carriage driver escorting the main character William Murdoch and his wife.

Lee has made previous television appearances, including "How I met your Mother" and "Chicago Fire."

Friend's theme townhouse for sale

We can't guarantee there'll be an ugly naked guy across the street, but this "Friends" themed home comes with a lot of nostalgia.

A townhouse in Houston, Texas, has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a kitchen that looks exactly like the famous purple one in Rachel and Monica's apartment.

The living room looks like the setting of Central Perk, and as you go up the stairs, there's a giant decal of Ross carrying a couch shouting "Pivot!"

The home is selling for $330 thousand but is also available on AirBnb.
