Judged by Matt Walsh

Something about this show feels so much more organic than the average reality court show, it truly seems like the plaintiffs and defendants really are just random people who can't get their cases before a real judge. Every time I see someone new walk through the doors I can't wait to see the way they'll react to Matt's unbridled personality.

The jokes here are truly hilarious, while at the same time they often fly dangerously close to being cringe, but that simply makes them funnier because of the courtroom environment. If you understand who Matt is, and how intensely straight faced he is when being sarcastic, then you'll have a great time with this show. It also helps if you have a functioning moral compass.

Here comes the judge. What a nice surprise. Matt with his incredible dry sense of humour and add in a bit of deadpan for good measure.

No spoilers here but I found myself laughing quite a bit in every episode. An excellent parody of courtroom shows. The cases are absolutely ridiculous, to add to the comedic chaos.

Now on a serious note. It seems the country where my parents were born has absolutely no love for this program. (My dad watched one episode with me and was laughing out loud). It seems that, as I type, there are 33 ratings from Lithuania. Every single rating just happens to be 1 out of 10. This show seems to trigger virtually everyone in Lithuania who bothers to rate the show. I find that astonishing!!!

Coincidence.....I don't think so. Me thinks there has been a fair bit of review bombing from humans pretending to be from Lithuania.

My rating stands at 9.

Court is adjourned!

Title: Judged by Matt Walsh: A Parody Show Lost in Its Own Lack of Wit

In a landscape dominated by reality television, one might expect a show that parodies the genre to be a refreshing and clever take on the absurdity of modern entertainment. Unfortunately, "Judged by Matt Walsh" fails to deliver on every front, serving instead as a painful reminder of just how uninspired and unoriginal internet video can be.

At the helm of this sinking ship is Matt Walsh, a strident right-wing commentator whose attempts at humor fall flat with all the grace of a lead balloon.

From the moment he graces the screen with his presence, it's abundantly clear that this is a man who takes himself far too seriously for his own good. His attempts to inject humor into the proceedings come across as forced and awkward, leaving viewers cringing rather than laughing.

But the problems with "Judged by Matt Walsh" extend far beyond its lackluster host. The entire production feels like something thrown together by a group of junior high school drama club members with no sense of direction or purpose. Scenes drag on interminably, jokes land with a thud, and the overall pacing is so sluggish that it's a wonder anyone manages to stay awake through an entire episode.

One of the most glaring issues with the show is its complete lack of originality. Every tired reality TV trope is trotted out with all the enthusiasm of a funeral procession, from the manufactured drama between participants to the contrived insults they're forced to endure. It's as if the writers took a checklist of Judge Judy show clichés and ticked them off one by one, never once bothering to inject any sort of creativity or innovation into the mix.

Adding insult to injury are the participants themselves, a motley crew of caricatures so thinly drawn that they barely register as human beings. From the token villain who seems to exist solely to stir up trouble to the doe-eyed ingenue who's clearly been cast for her looks rather than her talent, each one is more forgettable than the last. It's impossible to invest in their supposed struggles or triumphs when they feel like little more than cardboard cutouts being shuffled around by the puppeteers behind the scenes.

Of course, no reality parody would be complete without a Solomonic judges to dispense wisdom and wit, and "Judged by Matt Walsh" is no exception. Unfortunately, the judge here is about as funny as a root canal, offering up tired one-liners and predictable quips that elicit more groans than laughs. It's clear that they're trying desperately to recapture the magic of similar shows that have come before, but their efforts only serve to highlight just how far short they fall.

But perhaps the most damning indictment of "Judged by Matt Walsh" is its complete lack of self-awareness. For a show that purports to poke fun at the absurdities of reality television, it seems oddly oblivious to its own failings. Even with a wink to the audience to let them know that the whole thing is just a joke, it plods along, completely unaware of just how thoroughly it's missed the mark.

In the end, "Judged by Matt Walsh" is nothing more than a sad reminder of just how low contrived internet shows can sink when creativity takes a backseat to cynicism. It's a show that's neither clever nor entertaining, a parody in name only.

Save yourself the agony and give this one a wide berth. There are far better ways to spend your time, like watching Ben Shapiro, a Harvard Law graduate who is far funnier delivering political commentary than watching this sorry excuse for entertainment.

I enjoy deadpan humor. I enjoy sarcasm. I enjoyed the People's Court. Thus, I thought I might enjoy Judged by Matt Walsh. But alas, Matt Walsh proves he really isn't very intelligent (euphemism for idiot). He's mocking is at a 3rd grade level with very little wit. The litigants are too obvious in their fake stupidity for their 15 min of fame. Daily Wire should get a bunch of grade school children together to have a mock courtroom at least that might be adorable, while also being poorly acted and intellectually vacate.

Will not be watching more because at some point I'm sure Matt Walsh will resort to throwing his own feces at the litigants.

Note: 4 stars because production value was good and the bailiff was funny. Replace Walsh with a 5th grader would get 2 more stars.

Reading the negative review on here is sometimes a chore. Its clear that the people rating this negatively clearly have a political bias that disables them from seeing clearly.

While it's not the greatest acting ever (and was never supposed to be), putting ultra-dry, intractably base Matt Walsh at the helm of getting to say exactly what he wants about absurd morality and idiotic choices that are cheered on in the general 'big machine' media is a gem.

Matt Walsh hates all stupidity and obviously inept decision making and he is never afraid to say so. Additionally, the hilarity of the show is that the fanbase who would watch it all already agree from the outset of a case how stupid it is that people even have to get to this level of the legal system, to need an arbitrator to decide how things should be worked out.

This is a funny show, if you like Matt Walsh or not. But, to enjoy it, you do need some sense of morality.
