re: Judge Judy

She's a horrible judge. She makes a quick opinion and never strays from it. And when someone has a legitimate piece of evidence that she should take into account, she just tells them to shut up. Shitty justice. But the show makes $$$.

You are exactly right. If you watch, she makes rulings that would absolutely be overturned if made in a real court and then appealed.

She's all about entertainment.

I've read about her tenure as a 'real' judge, and she was the exact same way. She was tough, but often, her toughness was completely out of bounds as it relates to the law.
