they should settle this case on judge Judy. and have judge Judy be both the judge and the defendant running back and forth between the defendant's seat and the judge's seat.
This has nothing to do with this, as if they didn't agree to her salary they should have done it years ago. Judge Judy does not have to justify it to any one, this is political smearing.
So they, according to the contract, were entitled to 5% of the PROFITS. So if the programme does not make a profit then 5% of nothing is nothing. Next time the person who drafts the contract should learn the difference between profit and turn over.
Judge Judy is a hot commodity And I love her and her show dearly. I love her style but I must say I would never go on her show as a plaintiff or a defendant only because I probably would ramble on and she would tell me to save my problems for Dr. Phil.
You're right Tracy. This is no longer a court of law which is meant to be quiet, objective and serious. This is just Hollywood-style entertainment which is why so many people enjoy it. As you say : a hot commodity.
+Senior Rocker, maybe you have never watched her show or actual courtroom proceedings, but she keeps it quiet as necessary, objective, and as serious as necessary. It is probably one of the reasons she is so popular (hence the "no nonsense judge" phrase).
I have watched a few of her episodes but, having been brought up on the British legal system, I find JJ to be too theatrical by comparison. I'm not surprised that Americans like her because your court procedures allow for much more informality. That's the difference. Americans seem to like 'Hollywoody' stuff because that is what you've been brought up with. Each to their own I suppose. I regard British drama, and acting, to be the best because I've been brought up in countries heavily influenced by Britain. BTW, I'm not British.
She is actually the least theatrical and most professional out of any coutroom judge on tv. She is also one of the most successful, so that kinda indicates to me that Americans like a judge with personality but who is still straightforward and professional. As far as judges that do not appear in tv shows, they do generally act more stoic I suppose when in the courtroom, but even that is not always the case. I am an American, but I cannot say I have necessarily grown up with only very "Hollywoody" entertainment. I have watched American, British, Japanese, etc. forms of entertainment. The British and American do not seem to be that different as far as drama and theatrics go when you are comparing apples to apples.
+Senior Rocker Girl please. Broaden your horizons and see Latin American judge shows. They are EXTREMELY over the top and informal. Isn't it too bad that people try to emulate Judge Judy and the Peoples Court in American and abroad? Think on that. Lol. The only thing people don't want to emulate abroad is Donald Trump and his ilk lmao.
I like watching Judge Judy, I like her as a person when she's being interviewed on other shows, she's not the same as she is in the courtroom, but demanding 47 MILLION per year as her annual salary, is a bit much. I couldn't spend that much money IN ONE lifetime, let alone receiving it EVERY YEAR. I see though that she IS getting older and she's probably tired of doing the show. I'm guessing she was hoping they wouldn't commit to that high of a payment. Lol... Judge Judy, everybody just likes you and the network KNOWS they get some wicked HIGH ratings as long as they keep you. You could probably get more than that because they don't want to lose their ratings, but I do have to say, there is NO WAY I would want to be a plaintiff OR a defendant in front of you. You're kind of scary on the bench. You say it like it is, and usually what people are thinking anyway, and that is why the corporation wants to keep you. You're very entertaining!
After all the pinheads, all the bull shit, every lie, all the soured things that humanity will lobby at each other and a Judge (and for years), yet she keeps her integrity. She calls them as she sees them. Yet she's not soured on people in general. After putting up with the silly foibles of cases not even worthy of her intellect, and the major heart breaking family court career before that, she's earned every damn penny, every red cent of it
How much money does any one human need, no really $47 million a year????????? How about retire and make room for someone under 50 getting a shot? come on pandemic
seriously, you think someone offered her that much? no, she demanded it or she just wouldnt do it. its super popular, they dont want to lose the show, she gets $47 million a year. clearly that was a mistake but no one just offered to double her salary.
47 million annually.. I mean its all good having a shit load of money in the bank but how the hell can someone justify not only being paid that obscene amount of money, but to be able to spend it all... At her age! It's no like she can take it with her when the grim reaper comes knocking.
@@arielthemermaid3576 Are you a fucking child? Accusing people of being jealous? I didn't realize your life was the story of a shitty disney channel movie protagonist.
Do the math!? That's almost a million dollar a WEEK! (Exactly $903,846.00 a WEEK!) OR $129,121.00 a DAY! OR almost $13,000. an HR! ( 10 HR day). Or $217.00 a MINUTE!
Hard to believe. Sounds just a bit late. Why weren't they in the negotiations when the entered the deal? Or...didvg bg ey underestimate the drawing power of Judge Judy??????
They're going after her because she said that todays feminism is not real feminism. That she does not want to belong to a group and give them credit for what she did on her own. I'm sure she fought for the right to vote etc etc but it seems off of funny that since she said I don't want to belong to this way of thinking that go after
I'm sure if you came up before this show pony (masquerading as a judge) she'll insult you every which way... just to get another pay rise, if nothing else. I don't think you'll love her very much after she finishes with you.
+Senior Rocker, try to do some research first please next time. She served about 25 years as a judge before she retired and got on the show. She is not masquerading as a judge. She was a rather experienced judge who then was hired to be an arbitrator in a courtroom television show. She also only appears to be rude to people who do the wrong thing legally, morally, or just act like idiots.
The phrase 'masquerading as a judge' was meant to indicate that she is now, with her phenomenal salary, much more responsive to her media image/role, than she is to the serious requirements of a sobre judge. I wonder how many other judges in the US would behave the way she does. I would venture to suggest 'not many' because JJ seems to be playing up to the cameras, and her populist appeal, as much as she is to her judicial role. However, I've only seen a few other US judges in action and they behave nothing like this. But you would know better than me because I don't live in the US of A.
She should be somewhat responsive to her media/image role, but that does not mean she is being disingenuous to her profession necessarily. As far as the requirements of a judge go, while she is perhaps more harsh than many judges, she is fair. Her personality and such that portrays through while she is working is one of the main reasons she was hired for the show. It seems to have become more obvious as the years have gone on, but it is a tv show. She is rather strict on court room decorum and behavior, but it does not mean she has to act like a stoic.
Well WLW100, I'll let you have the last word on this. Clearly we have been brought up in different cultures and, consequently, have different standards, norms and expectations. Interesting chatting with you.
The people who have watched the show,got a huge profit. They've understood what common sense is! She deserve every single penny and more respect! God bless her!
Judge Judy is awesome, but holy shit, can anyone really justify a $47 million salary for themselves for doing their job? Imagine, she makes more in the time it takes her to deal with a case than the maximum $5000 small claims limit...Making judgments on cases dealing in complete chump change for her.
Yes. People watch her because they love how she handles people In most cases, the people deserve what they get from her. These people CHOOSE to go on her show. Nobody forces them. They know her style before they go to the show, yet they still go.
Judge Judy usually treats one or both of the litigants on her show with utter contempt, often resorting to insulting or abusive language such as name calling, and yet, she wouldn’t have a show without them! People can easily stop her cold by refusing to appear on her show and subject themselves to her abrasive personality and bogus sense of justice. Take your case to a legitimate court. The $100 appearance fee is not worth the public humiliation or vilification you will likely suffer regardless of the strength of your case. Don’t assume that because you have the necessary documentation you will win on Judge Judy. She may refuse to even look at it.
First of all we all know her show is fake, in the real world, in real small claims court the judges never act like she does. They are very polite and courteous. But wouldn't it be funny if the judge in her trial treated her and spoke to her like she speaks to defendants on her show.
they should settle this case on judge Judy. and have judge Judy be both the judge and the defendant running back and forth between the defendant's seat and the judge's seat.
***** judge: DONT USE THAT TONE WITH ME
Wtf best comment iv ever seen Lol
F
She would have awarded herself with more money
Hahahaha 😂😂😂
This has nothing to do with this, as if they didn't agree to her salary they should have done it years ago. Judge Judy does not have to justify it to any one, this is political smearing.
“She is NOT named in the lawsuit” Only CBS is so why is this even news? 🤔😂🤣😂
So they, according to the contract, were entitled to 5% of the PROFITS. So if the programme does not make a profit then 5% of nothing is nothing. Next time the person who drafts the contract should learn the difference between profit and turn over.
Fair enough, but if they can afford to pay Judy $47 mil a season, it's kind of hard to argue they're not making a profit.
Judge Judy: they don't keep me here cause I'm beautiful, they keep me here cause I'm SMART
They better hope judge judy isnt the judge in this case..😂 because 1 word.. DISMISSSED
Judge Judy is a hot commodity And I love her and her show dearly. I love her style but I must say I would never go on her show as a plaintiff or a defendant only because I probably would ramble on and she would tell me to save my problems for Dr. Phil.

This is why nobody builds contracts around profits…it’s based off revenue. Just because you made a bad deal doesn’t mean you should sue.
" You speak I rule and then you shut up "
Sir yes sir!!
It’s a bit late to claim money now. Where were they? She negotiated her salary, if they weren’t going to make enough, why sign a contract?
she needs to host the oscars
+wakaphwap OMG YES!
It would be the only reason I'd bother to watch them. Dang boring anymore.
she needs to be in prison
The Oscars would be over in 12 minutes. “You have 30 seconds for your speech. GO!”
Pocket change for her. Judge got her own multimillion dollar yacht.
She's worth EVERY MILLION ♡
lol They shouldn’t have agreed to her salary. This is ridiculous. 🙄
The irony of all ironies

If a contract is signed its a signed contract. Lawyers were involved. They don't make mystakes. If anyone is going to know the law it's JUDY
VASHTA NERADA mistakes
Judge Judy is my hero. I need her autograph.
I love that an entertainment company is finally getting the shit end of the stick!
Yes me too. I'm not sure that Judge Judy is worth $47M a year, but I'd rather she get it than them.
She is the show
I love judge Judy. She's amazing and hilarious at what she does. Wish she was in the business of making laws.
Best statement ever made.
Why shouldn't she get the money? She's the whole show! There's a reason she's still on and guys like Mills Lane and Joe Brown aren't.
Shes the iron lady of the court room.
If they're entitled to it, I'd just give it to them. She's going to continue making money. She has enough money for her grandkids after her grandkids.

*"Beauty Fades, Dumb is Forever."*
Never base a royalty on net earnings. These can be slimmed down to nothing. Always make them a percentage of the gross.
Judge Judy rocks
Do the math!? That's almost a million dollar a WEEK! (Exactly $903,846.00 a WEEK!) OR $129,121.00 a DAY! OR almost $13,000. an HR! ( 10 HR day). Or $217.00 a MINUTE!

So what? How much money she makes, and what she does with it is her business. If CBS didn't like it, they would cancel the show.
How the hell is she worth 47 million dollars. Crazy world we live in...
She is worthless

Oh poor production company.
Really has NOTHING to do with Judge Judy!!? Clickbait!!!!

They wouldn't be questioning so much if it was a man. She earner her cheque, they need to stop inquiring smh
Love Judge Judy💕
That same attorney who complains about her $47M salary being too high, probably happily takes 33.75% of any settlement he gets for his clients.
Has this case settled or has it gone to trial yet?

Judge Judy is the boss!!
Bleep them!

Has this case been settled yet. If so, what was the result?
Good luck to ya!!!! [i'm on judge judys side lol]

She is now a showbiz personality not a judge anymore.
The reason that she commands a salary like that is because people like you keep watching her stop watching her ratings will go down you'll be happy.
Leroy A.F. Nascimento I’m way ahead of you; I stopped watching about 5 years ago. She has only gotten progressively worse over the years.
The show pays the judgment. In real court, you will have to pay it yourself. If the defendant is poor, the defendant may never pay the judgment.
Derek Thompson She is not the original. Her husband was on The People's Court first.
That does sound like a pretty egregious breach of contract
That's a twist. JJ's company getting sued.
She is not a judge no jail time,criminal record and the show pays out the money so you lose nothing going on it
