Info

Judge Judy is an American arbitration-based reality court show presided over by retired Manhattan Family Court Judge Judith Sheindlin. The show features Sheindlin adjudicating real-life small claims disputes within a simulated courtroom set. All parties involved must sign contracts, agreeing to arbitration under Sheindlin. The series is in first-run syndication and distributed by CBS Television Distribution. Judge Judy, which premiered on September 16, 1996, reportedly revitalized the court show genre. Only two other arbitration-based reality court shows preceded it, The People's Court and Jones and Jury. Sheindlin has been credited with introducing the "tough" adjudicating approach into the judicial genre, which has led to several imitators. The two court shows that outnumber Judge Judy's seasons, The People's Court and Divorce Court, have both lasted via multiple lives of production and shifting arbiters, making Sheindlin's span as a television arbiter the longest.

Judge Judy Audience Reviews

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%
Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
stnbwen I have never seen a judge so disrespectful in my life. You have little to be a Judge no compassion so nasty are you. Look into your own problems with your life.
jscap-95-394786 Judge Judy takes the souls of all the guilty, and damns them to an eternity of insults and backhanded compliments. With the occasional flat-out insult at the poor culprit's intelligence.Judge Judy manages to blend together all the elements that make a one- stage-show amusing, and carefully intertwines those elements into an intricately designed series. Sure, the basic format may be the same: Two people come into the courtroom, both unhappy, Judge Judy solves the problems. However, the means by which she approaches getting to that point B are so different and set apart from each other that one can't help but wonder what kind of genius Judge Judy is. There is no bargaining with Judge Judy, only justice. If you have wronged someone, expect the swift gavel of Judge Judy to strike down upon your head with the zeal and fury of an angered god. And may your soul be saved if you have the gall to even attempt at retaliating the good Judge's insults. The rebuttal that she will send back is a fury that not even words can describe.
justluvme I have been Watching judge Judy for years. it's just so funny to see our court system being wasted with such stupidity. people suing other people for stupid things. it does makes the show more interesting. It should be considered a comedy show! One comment i have is to some of the people who have appeared. To be a person on national TV in front of millions and looking like you just rolled out of bed should be a crime in its self. if I'm not mistaken I just watched a lady On a particular episode that was wearing pajamas. you're in the court of law at least look More presentable. other than that is a great show. I love it I watch every night before bed and I hope it's on for years to come
Miguel Roman I've watched Judge Judy since the beginning, and I've noticed she has become increasingly cranky and unstable, in a bad mood and unreasonably biased toward or against a plaintiff or defendant. I'm now troubled to see signs she has become increasingly irrational, even unbalanced. Time to seek help or maybe even retire...
