    Decent show. Great judge.

    I really enjoy his political views. The shows good. It just blends in with the other judge shows, never finds it's own path. It's basically another judge show nothing special on that end. What makes the show worth watching is Joe brown. He has slick come backs that can be entertaining. He can be a bit long winded but seems fair. He does seem to cut people off but still comes off as a fair judge. It's a fair show at the end of the day and it has the same fault as all these judge shows it's just bland the same old stale court format one of the og court shows. It's worth a watch if nothing else is on.

    He's the male version of Candace Owens.

    The people who rate this show highly (or even say that Joe is more deserving of the NAACP award than Judge Mathis) are disgusting. He doesn't let people finish what they have to say, and he stereotypes black people who grew up in the hood.... Even though he's been through divorce, and has said nasty things about women. You're no better, Joe Brown. Black people who support this black-eyed animal are just as bad as Candace Owens herself!

    Don't say #BLM while you're supporting someone like Joe Brown. I wonder how long this show would've lasted if he was a white judge.

    Racist???

    I just watched an episode of Judge Joe Brown were a young black guy stole a white ladies ATM card. His defense was "I don't remember it" the Judge threw the case out for ins evidence!!!!! Really, and there's all the racist talk!! Well that's a two way street. He treated that lady very rudely, even calling the young man out for being drunk!!! I will not watch another episode!! Promoting manhood yea he done a great job of setting that young man on the right track go ahead steal an ATM card it's all good!!!! Makes me sick!!!! I've seen him all over young white men for basically the same things. And what more evidence did she need?? The young man came into her house, left, the card was gone & several charges where made and several ATM withdrawals were made. When ask his reply was "I don't remember" after confessing to having an alcohol problem!! Get it together whats fair for one should be fair for the other!!!!

    Good show, but....

    So I had vivid memory of watching this show when it was on (mostly cuz of the intro and outro), but now that the show is back on The Roku Channel, I thought I would check it out fully and get really into it.

    Now over the years, Judge Joe Brown has received a lot of mixed feedback, with people saying he's underrated, he still should be on TV, while others have said he's unprofessional, loud, biased, all that.

    Now after watching episodes of his show, I actually am in the middle. Now I don't know much about law and court, but I do agree, Judge Joe does have a tendency to not let defendants speak their case in his courtroom, talk over the parties, and doing the most times. And it would make you think, "How did he even get a court show if he is like this?" But at the same time, that's kinda what made his show entertaining, while if it was the cases, are Brown himself, I honestly think these are the 2 reasons the show lasted almost 15 years on the air. But he does sometimes actually do speak facts in his cases, and dropping knowledge and when it does, it hits the nail on the head.

    And honestly, entertainment wise, I'd watch him over Judge Judy everyday (cuz I've tried to watch her and she's kinda too boring for me, like I can only handle her in clips), but seriousness, she is your go-to.

    Overall, I think it's a good show (at least entertainment wise), but beware, Judge Joe Brown is not for everyone.

    Addressing The Original Post

    Um, Judge Joe Brown's slogan for men and women of ANY COLOR has been, "I'm protecting womanhood, and promoting manhood." He says nothing about wanting only BLACK people to raise their children properly, etc. That might be what the idiot poster sees this show as, but that's not what Judge Brown says. I've seen ignorant people of all races on this show. Sure, there may be more blacks on the show than whites; but unless there is no such thing as unruly white people; it is NOT fair to say that the judge only addresses black people with regards to how to raise boys to men, and how to raise girls, etc. I think after the judge promotes manhood and protects womanhood, he should teach common sense to ignorant people who tend to see what they want to see, and then post their assumptions online as facts.
