JUDGe JudY`
How long does it take to become a judge?
Answer
You have to be a lawyer for a few years, often seven...in some states there's an age barrier too, in Maryland you have to be thirty years old...Other countries have different rules and regulations.
Thinking of the letter J!~ Today is Alphabet Thursday hosted by Jenny Matlock http://jennymatlock.blogspot.com. I at first was going to choose my son Jack, although that would have been a very good choice....my mind raced and all of a sudden, I had a double J!~ JUDGE JUDY!
Judge Judy is an American court show featuring former family court judge Judith Sheindlin arbitrating over small claims cases. The series is in first-run syndication and distributed by CBS Television Distribution, the successor company to its previous distributors Worldvision Enterprises, Paramount Domestic Television, and CBS Paramount Domestic Television.[1]
Since premiering on September 16, 1996, Judge Judy has been the ratings leader in courtroom-themed reality-based shows.[2][3] As of 2009, the Judge Judy program has been nominated twelve times for Daytime Emmy Awards.[4] In January 2008, Judge Judy was extended through the 2012-13 season (the show's seventeenth).[5]
The program earned Sheindlin a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, which she was awarded in February 2006.[6] Two DVDs have been released; the first in 2007 and the second the following year.
I can only imagine what she is getting ready to say here! I feel sorry for the fool who winds up in her courtroom, who was the no do gooder! If you have never watched Judge Judy, I would recommend it. Other court TV judges have come and gone....Judge Judy at the age of 67 is still going strong!~

Thanks for your visit and comments about my Jiffy Jeff post. It is interesting to see what folks come up with...it looks like "J" will prove quite eclectic...Judge Judy...I would never have thought of that. I read another that was about Juvenile Court...did you two get together?? Peace
Hi Debbie! I like Judge Judy for the same reasons you put in your post. But I didn't know all of that about her and I can't believe she's 67. I hope I look that good at that age!:-)
Thanks for the nice comments, etc. on all my 'changes' & Thanks for following my new 'adventures'! :-)
Hugs,
Coreen
I always liked her show, but I haven't seen it in ages. I thought she was off the air and maybe she is here...or on late at night. Saturday Night Live used to do her every once in a while and it was so funny.
I would not have guessed she was in her late 60's. Wow.
I mean people always confuse my schoolmarm picture with someone much younger, but I think JJ puts even me, cranky old Mrs. Matlock, to shame!
Great Double J post!
A+
Loved your commercial. You were great! And you looked gorgeous in that shoot.
OK, so did you get some free WOW furniture for that?
Can you share more details of the how and why of this? I looked for a post about it.
Really, really cool.
I like her no nonsense ways even though I don't get to watch her much. Thank for for your prayers for my siter-in-law Cindy.
Good double "J" post. We don't currently have cable or otherwise, but when I did I liked her "personal responsibility" approach to things and she's funny. Joni
I love her! Put a period there and get on with your life! love her love her love her, lol.
Isn't it amazing how many years are in a judgin education? lol. LOTS
I'm not much for those Judge shows. My husband now that he's retired watches all different judge shows all afternoon. Good thought though about Judge Judy. We must have been in sync.
I just think Judge Judy is a hoot! She does not put up with any nonsense, and sometimes she just cracks me up. I can't believe that she's 67 - she looks fantastic! Great choice for J. Kathy
Your too funny!! I saw the title Judge Judy in my reader before I could see the blog that posted it. As soon as I saw her name I said to myself "oh that has to be a post from debbie" HA! ;)
I don't ever watch the judge or law shows much. I prefer the medical shows.
So funny, I came home from work today and turned on the t.v. There she was, laying into some guy and for all the right reasons!
Now that was good!! I love Judge Judy, but occasionally wonder how good ol' Judge Wapner is doing!
I think Judge Judy is a mess! She cracks me up and I cannot imagine why anyone would agree to appear in her court, when they know she is going to slice and dice them!
Nice post!
I love Judge Judy but I haven't seen the show in years. I had no idea it was still in production. Great post for the letter J.
Judge Judy rocks! We just need her to step out of the civil court into the criminal court and put some bad guys away!
JUST a great choice this week! I thought of her too...but not as hard as you did! Love the info on her (o:
I like her! I think she is feisty!
Hey, thanks for stopping by my place recently. I'm just catching up in Blogland tonight. You've got your own "whimsy" going on over here. I loooove your Spring tablescape below. Great job! Such a happy post. : )
M.L.
I must confess, I've never seen her accept in commercials. (Not a lot of American tv over our way.). But you are great advertising. It makes me want to watch. I have a J-named son too and one who thinks he wants to be a lawyer (he's a good debater, anyway). Fun post! Thanks.
I laughed that you chose JJ as your subject! I've watched a bit in the past and she was a little firecracker. I actually heard her say, "Don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining."
Excellent post, Debbie!
Not sure what I think about this. In UK it is not permissible to film or take photos in court.
Here is my J
I like her straight forward attitude, and strong personality..Haven't seen her show for a while though.
Gotta love Judge Judy, she tells it like it is!!!
I used to watch JJ all the time. Now I haven't seen her in a long time. I'm glad she's still going.
I'd love to see her as a Grandma - I bet she softens up pretty easily then. Love the lace color.
Wow, she looks great! I love that no-nonsense attitude of hers!
i watched judge judy for years i love the way she does say it like it is i would not want to go infront of her if i did something wrong at 67 she looks great and has a great figure i see her on larry king show and they had some pics of her on her boat in a bathingsuit she looked awsome
Judge Judy ... I would never have thought of that. She is entertaining, no doubt about it!
Blessings,
Catherine :)
big fan of the judester...i think she should be required viewing for 18-24 year olds!
WOW! Your commercial was great! :-)
Poor Judge Judy, she really does get some of the most ridiculous cases in her court. Don't you think she goes home at the end of the day and just shakes her head?
I don't watch her, but I do love her no nonsense attitude. It's the dumb folks in court that I can't stand to watch!
I haven't watched Judge Judy in a while but I think she's great! She really gives people the smack down:) I can't believe she's 67, hope I have a quarter of her spunk at that age!
I have never watched the show, but she is a household name. If you live in the US you've heard of her.
I love it when she doesn't put up with a fool's nonsense. I would hate to be a judge, though. Sometimes there is a no-win situation no matter what. And I wouldn't want the responsibility of determining another's situation. Thank you for your sweet comment on my post.
Great post! I don't think I have ever read a post about Judge Judy before!! I don't watch her show, but she seems really scary..
DAnielle
hay Debi just voted for you and the tumb up but i dont know if it workd:)
ok i voted good thing you put it on the front page now so all us fans can see it :)
i find her hysterical :D
I <3 Judge Judy!!! some call her Satan's little sister, but i adore her!
I can't have any opinion about Judge Judy, since I've never seen her program.
But you write well and you have the required letters!
Best wishes
Anna
I am so far behind commenting on my favorite blogs! I love Judge Judy & her no nonsense style! I heard recently that she makes 40 million a year! Unbelievable!
I came back to leave you the blogs of the 3 you didn't follow. They are very good. Gollum hosts "Foodie Friday", which is a pretty big meme around blogland. She is also an author. Her blog is:

Bargain Hunting and Chatting with Laurie is:

She hosted a V-day party, and I believe she's hosting another one now.
And Gloria @ Happy to Be is one of the sweetest bloggers ever.

Enjoy!
I would not want to go in front of Judge Judy...then again, I usually don;t try to BS so maybe I'd be OK. I did not realize she had a star on the walk of fame...wonder if Judge Wapner does? I used to LOVE People's Court!
I haven't seen this- television surely differs! I wanted to do criminal law really badly. Once upon a time. Hope Alex turns out super fun a judge!
I Love Judge Judy...I think she should be President ha ha!! I have all her books which are also great...Great post Debbie..I just signed up to follow you girl...Hope you have a GREAT weekend...hugs and smiles Gl♥ria
Great choice! Judge Judy always tells it like it is!
Personally, I'd rather watch Cops, Ride the Lightning suckers! We like to point out to our 8 year old (that gets to see it occasionally) that these are complete idiots that are typically f'd up on drugs. So moral of the story, don't do drugs, or you may ride the lightning, with your face planted in the pavement. Ohh, I really am not sadistic, really. :D
she says it like it is but sometimes even outspoken me thinks she can be too mean......Melinda
I've never watched these "court shows", but I do know who Judge Judy is. LOL Had no idea she was in her late 60s.
