Been a die hard, never miss an episode fan, for all the years she's been on TV. Re this new show...Judy's great as always but her grand daughter/law clerk & stenographer are irrelevant & superfluous characters. The new baliff seems nice enough but lacks personality & a real role. The energy is lower which is a bummer. The part I like the least is the time between cases when Judy offers her thoughts to her grand daughter who just sits there with a pleasant smile but nothing to say that's interesting, if anything at all. Feels like a waste of time. Seems like she wanted to give people in her life (grand daughter, body guard & whoever Whitney the stenographer is to her) a shot at being on TV, getting exposure & making some money. Maybe a fun thing to do together as well? But not additive. I like the other show much more but will continue to watch if there's nothing else on. I would've never missed before! Hopefully she'll change some things if enough people review her show!
