Judge Judy

I'm not sure my comments will be valid as I'm English and gay, but I think I've fallen in love with Mrs Scheindlin! She's sharper than a razor, very witty, fearless, and with an ability to focus like I've seldom seen before. She takes obvious care when delicate children are involved, always spots the baddies, fakes, and blackguards in a matter of minutes, deals with each case with lightning speed, and for her age, is a very attractive, if conservative, woman. I've seen many of the shows, some two or three times. They are entertaining, educational, and a shot in the arm after a bad day at the office! I bet she's terrific company too! So to sum up, she's hard, fair, attractive, witty and extremely clever. Not a bad combination, and you don't get that many like that, at least not over here in the UK. I hope she carries on till she drops!! And if ever you fancy a drink Mrs Scheindlin ....... !!!!!!!!!

This judge is very arrogant. Doesn't let anybody talk. Meaning the plaintiff or the defendant. Very unprofessional being on tv I think it went to her head.

I don t find most of her judgments fair. People bring in receipts and she picks and chooses..no one gets all they lost...take your problem to another judge. I do think she is great with small children..but calling teens losers or stupid is out of line and then doing the same to the parents..well..its seems very unprofessional. I realize these court shows are not on television for justice but for entertainment. Many of them are actually good. They are fair and entertaining..however, the Judge Judy show shows court and judges at their worst. She s rude..she doesn't listen ..she picks and chooses what she "wants" to hear which often seems to cause the real issue to be side stepped. This is not fun and games this is about peoples real lives. I wish she would step up the professional ladder a bit.

I occasionally tune into "Judge Judy" when I am in the mood for some kind of guilty pleasure. One thing that gives me a lot of enjoyment is seeing someone who is really guilty and/or stupid getting their just desserts, and quite often the show has someone like that feeling Judge Judy's wraith.

But I don't watch the show all the time. If I watch the show repeatedly over a short period of time, some things start to bother me. As others have pointed out, Judge Judy can be hostile towards even the most innocent people. And even when people try to be polite, they can get a hostile response. For example, I've seen many times when people politely put up their hand when someone else is speaking, only to have Judge Judy shriek at them, "PUT YOUR HAND DOWN!"

I do know that participants of "Judge Judy" must know what to expect when they agree to do the show... but still a lot of Judge Judy's attitude towards them seems unfair.

Worth watching a few times, and the show definitely has a large audience, going on for over 15 years. Still, the show can sometimes leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Judge Judy is an annoying and rude woman who constantly berates the people in her court, giving them little or no respect. She reminds me of many teachers I had in school. I highly recommend "Judge Mills Lane," because he (usually) respects the people in his court.
