I know this will not be read or gotten back to Judge Judy and seems a bit silly, but I felt strongly about my need to say something before I left her "fan club" after so MANY years. This is more for me.....saying goodbye. Lol!!! I hate I could not give zero stars, but I guess making us give at least 1 star helps their ego. You see, I have been a die hard Judge Judy fan for many, many years. I made sure to Record EVERY EPISODE I would miss while at work so that I could watch later.....EVERY EPISODE ON ANY CHANNEL! My husband, on the other hand, hates her. He has hated her since the first episode I made him watch with me so many years ago. I have always loved our banter back and forth, with me defending her. Sadly, today I saw the episode that turned me away from Judge Judy for good. I was so disappointed in her behavior and lack of duty as a judge to uphold the law without personal feelings swaying her decision. I finally saw the true woman that my husband has seen. It was S20, E34 "Chased and Beaten By Neighbors. Judy obviously had her mind made up before hearing the case. It seemed her dislike of the older lady, defendant was hindering her from LISTENING to this woman testify. Just because this woman had no huge bruises after these two idiot neighbors(a father and his teenage son) of hers (she was wearing a heavy fur coat) hit her several times with a throwing stick after she pepper sprayed them and their dog because of being frightened as they came after her. I am sad to say, Judy's lack of honor on the bench today has caused me to be embarrassed I ever defended her or been a fan for so many, many years. I think it's time Judy hung that coat up and moved on to other things. I will be moving on from recording her shows and being a fan. Thank goodness I still have Judge M. from People's Court. 😃 And yes, I do feel better now! Goodbye Judge Judy.....
