Today, Judge M got to read a love poem a plantiff had written to a defendant. She was fighting to keep from dissolving into giggles and just barely won. The poor plantiff wouldn't stop wincing.

awwwww.....he seemed really sweet! What a bitch she was (the defendant) to screw someone trying to help you.

I agree. The guy's poem was sweet.

That defendant was one of the most hateful bitches I've ever seen. I hate the ones who say "He's just mad because I won't go out with him again." It sounded like she drove him to the attempted suicide that he said he was not really going to go through with.

I enjoyed Judge M's reading of the defendant's little note too: "Hi baby. I needed $100 for bowling, hair, and stuff" or however the hag phrased it. She did this to one of our local jackasses one time who had met a girl online and screwed her out of a bunch of money while in jail. He kept saying "I never asked for money." So -- Judge M starts to read the letters: "Hey Baby I can't wait to be with you. I only need $500", "I only need $400 for my divorce and we can be together." I felt bad for the girl but the guy was such a creep. His brother "molested" the girl and the police here in Arkansas basically told her just to go back to New York. Boyfriend didn't seem to care about it either.

I love Judge M.

Wow. I am watching today's installment...and these two defendants walked in--I think they're mother and daughter--and they look like someone cloned the Parkers, put em in pink sweatsuits (pink! sweatsuits! In [i]court[i]!) and extracted 50% of the class that the Parkers have. I could see people in the audience cracking up. Judge M. called them the "Doublemint Twins." Boy, she's being generous.

Lord, those Hot!Pink!Velour! sweat suits were awful. Especially because one woman was so little and the other so big. The big gal looked like a walking ham.

JM seemed very disheartened by this case with all the baby's daddy fighting.

Amen winkleworn and CaptainSnarky ! I thought it was hilarious when Judge M referred to those two as the Doublemint Twins and baliff was snickering too. Pink velour sweatsuits look good on about 0.1% of the population, no matter what your size. The larger woman really looked horrible, especially from the backside. Maybe she'll burn that sweatsuit when she sees herself on TV...but probably not!

Today, we got to see another eBay scam case. A man was selling counterfeit Louis Vuitton bags (real obvious fakes, too; I'm not high-end purse expert, but even I could tell), and Judge M nailed his ass to the wall. I don't think I've laughed so much at a TPC case in a long, long time. The guy was so sleezy.

I was watching Carson Daly (shut up) and he had Carmen & Dave on and Dave said that his fantasy celebrity fuck is our very own Judge M. He said she is smoking hot in street clothes. Awww...or do I mean ewww?

I'm gonna go with Ewww.

I'd like these judge shows better if the defendant or plaintiff actually had to pay money out of their own pockets. It would make watching TPC that much more fun.

It's still pretty fun.

This morning, a gay couple sued a trolley driver for not delivering service for their commitment ceremony. The jackass had the gall to countersue them for not paying the full amount of the bill. The couple won, and I thought Judge M's head was going to explode as she was giving the driver a verbal spanking. I've never seen her that angry in a simple contracts case.

I didn't know so many other people shared my love for Judge M.
I kind of like Judge Judy too, but we won't go there.

I totally saw the gay couple case. At first she seemed to be busting the couple's balls (bad choice of words?), but her smackdown of the "trolley" company owner was truly great. What a total sleezeball, just the total epitome of sleaze, especially in those tinted glasses. ugh.
I loved when he asked the two guys: "How could you know when the tide would be high or low"? Uh, it's called the moon. Idiot.
Also the gay couple? So cute.

Very cute.

Today, some poor schmoe called Judge M "babe." It's a good thing he was winning anyway, because...no, I wouldn't want to be the person who did that.

I needed to bump this today because Judge M absolutely flamebroiled an evil woman who'd sicced Social Services on a foster mother as part of an ongoing feud between the two women. The foster mother filed for the statutory maximum for defamation, and while I don't think I've ever seen one of those cases fly, after the sound tongue-lashing Judge M gave to the evil woman, she award the mother $3000.00.

I was just about to post about this case today! I didn't see the beginning of it. What started a feud. Because the mother was married to a black man?

BTW, what's that saying she always says from the Spanish. I think it's something, I went out and got a soda and came back. I wanted to say that to my friend but I forgot it.

They never quite explained why the parties were feuding, but it seemed pretty obvious it was because the plaintifs were a mixed-race couple. The defendant was claiming the mother liked to make racial epiphets towards her, but that seemed like a bunch of hogwash.

I think her little catchphrase is "I've been where you're going, sat down, had a soda, and returned.

The plaintiffs were a white woman married to a black man. They take in foster kids who are severely emotionally and physically abused and are supervised by a special Child Protective Services unit. Their neighbor is black. The plaintiff claimed that neighbor complained because the plaintiff is white while the defendant said that she had problems with the plaintiff's lifestyle.

The white plaintiff claimed that the defendant maliciously reported to the Cops and Special CPS that she let her foster kid play in the rain. The defendant also reported that the plaintiff had wild parties with underage drinking. The foster kids were removed but apparently Special CPS cleared the couple and were/are going to let them have foster kids again, not the ones removed from the house.

In the ruling, I think the judge was more concerned with the effect of the more-likely-than-not false report on the child than accusations of racism. Although Milani was the one who said that the foster child who was playing in the rain was white (and it appeared was the first white foster child).

The facts presented were very confused and it wasn't obvious what was going on. I wonder if that had to do with the involvement of child in the case or maybe just the editing of the case.

It is weird to watch this show. I love this show when Judge Milian gets on on a rampage like today's mailbox kid or yesterday's crazy tenant who set her landlord's kitchen on fire. Milian advised the defendant to get a restraining order.

It was really neat when The plaintiff started saying "Praise Jesus! I only wanted my stuff!" And Judge Milian stated "Don't you take the Lord's name in vain!"

Judge M. rocks, the one yesterday with the arson stuff was so awesome. She ripped that lady a new asshole and the lady was smiling and celebrating! What a nut. I hope she's in prison.

That one gay "adult entertainer" yesterday or the day before criticized the judge's makeup and gave her a sneer after the ruling cause he lost. What an asshole. Nobody messes with Milian!

Today's show was odd with the guy bringing out the Koran and asking if the guy would swear on it. What was the outcome on that case?

Does anyone kmow the hallway guy, Kurt's last name? thanks!

A search of the 'net yielded not-so-much, until this bit I found on imdb. At the end of the list of "cast" is his name, Curt with a C.

Strange... I wanted more info on this show (it's my secret shame... well, I suppose less secret now, and more just shame!), but where is it?? There's no real website! All I could really find was random worthless mentions in blogs and whatnot. It's sad.

I really don't understand why they don't have at least a functioning website. A lot of people watch the show, and it's actually good -- sometimes funny as hell -- unlike all the bitter (JJudy), retarded court shows out there (JMathis) that let people argue and talk smack while the judge is speaking! This one is way more like a real court, less like a moronic circus. Judge Milian seems to have a little less to prove, so she doesn't depend on her persona to fuel the show; instead the focus is more on the real people who actually DO fuel the show. Truth is always weirder than what writers can come up with, and I think the producers get that.

Also, I never get the feeling that the litigants are paid extras, as I definitely do with some court shows. I've always wondered what the details are regarding payment and such. They still flash the same quick page at the end of each episode that they've flashed since Wapner, but it is just a very general sort of disclaimer. I want the dirt!

Why they don't see a need for a website (which is great advertising) is beyond me. Good grief... even my toothpaste has a damned website!

TY viciousgrrl for the info on Curt's last name

Sure thang. Here's more, including pictures.

Don't Harvey Levin and Curt Chaplin look like they were carved out of the exact same block of cream cheese?

I just saw the one with the idiot guy from South Beach who hired the famous decorator and then did not want to pay her. What was great was that he kept saying he wanted a place where he could watch football with his buddies and the decorator came up with "Queen Anne Chairs" when the Judge asked to see her sketches and asked him to show her the "QAC" he said he really didn't know much about decorating. He finally admitted that he stole her ideas and did not want to pay her!!! It was great!!!!
Judge made him pay!!!!!

I love it when dumb cheap people want to come accross as suave, intelligent know-it-all's and she calls them on it. It made my day. She does it with a lot of class, though..............

Speaking of Curt, I can't stand him. Why does he ask the people 100 part questions, then tries to rush them outside as if he doesn't have time to listen? I hope someone calls him out on that one day.

YES! For the longest time, I thought they were the same person.

Just caught an episode today, probably a rerun, about a woman who complained that a drycleaner ruined her very expensive tracksuit. Except she apparently got a receipt only after the fact, and it looked very much to Miss M like a scam receipt, so she couldn't prove what the tracksuit really cost, and she doubted the tracksuit was really all that new, since it was stretched out. Judge M dressed down the plaintiff, then declared her the winner of 30 whole bucks. Snicker.

I think my favorite case is the messed-up DJ at the wedding. Hearing him say "the girls defecating the rose petals" is hysterical.

Ahhh! This show has a thread, that's awesome! I love me some Milian!!

I saw one today where she just lit in to the kid who had the gall to sue the woman who kept him off the streets. He had swapped clothes with the woman's son and when the son moved out and took the clothes, the plaintiff felt the woman should pay for his clothes! After the woman let him live rent free in her house for three months!

Judge Milian wanted no part of that one. She tossed him out on his ear and he STILL didn't get it!

My all-time favorite is the woman who sued a mall pet store over her "maine coon cat." She and her daughter wanted a maine coon and saw one advertised at the pet store. She paid like $400 for the kitten and took it home. After a while, the kitten grew into -- a short haired orange tabby. The pet store owner insisted that the cat was a short-haired maine coon cat, which is rare so the woman should consider herself lucky. After the woman presented information that there was no such thing as a short hair maine coon, the store owner kept insisting louder and louder that the cat was a maine coon. Milian even called a cat association rep, who apparently restrained himself from laughing when he said that there was no such cat. Milian pretty much gave the woman everything she wanted. But in the hallway the store owner kept going on and on that the cat was a short haired maine coon and that the plaintiff was just money hungry.

I am always amazed at how deluded some people are on this show.

I love this show.


Milian is funny and actually lets the people talk, and isn't always yelling. Unlike Judge Judy who yells and just looks so bitter. Plus Douglas is hot, lol.


But what does it say at the end of the show. The part where it says they get a fund and it is deducted. It always goes away to fast, and I want to know what it says.






Me too.

I believe the statement says that both parties are paid a fee for appearing on the show and that the losers payment will come out of that fee. Anything additional due above the fee will still have to be paid.

My mother knows a woman who scouts people for Judge Judy which sounds like the best job in the world. She basically hangs out at small claims filing offices searching for interesting cases.

She gives people a chance. Even if she's stifling laughter to do it.



Bwah! I wish homeless-kid-whose-clothes-were-taken-by-son used that line. "Her son is lucky to have my $1800 worth of clothes! I know I was homeless before she took me in, but dammit, I really did have $1800 worth of rare clothes!"

I like how Judge M explains everything slowly, like how the tracksuit is stretched out and therefore not new, and the indignant plaintiffs arrive at the Microphone of the Tool to say, "I dunno WHAT she was talking about, that was a NEW tracksuit! I dunno HOW she came up with that suit costing $118!" (Because she called the store herself. Her reasons were captured on tape. Read the transcript. Buy the video.) I don't know if it's the television lights that make them forget what they just. heard. It's Mr. Short-Term Memor-eeeee.

Oooo, the defendent in the first case pissed me off!

First of all, the dog didn't have a cold, he had kennel cough (aka bordetella). Dogs who live in places where strange dogs are coming in and out (pet stores, boarding facilities) should be vaccinated for it.

Secondly, it really burned my butt when the pet store owner dismissed the diarrhea and vomiting as minor complaints. Diarrhea and vomiting are symptoms of parvo, a very dangerous disease that kills puppies and weaker, older dogs.

Though I do think anyone who pays $900 for a mixed-breed dog is nuts.

... and buys a puppy from a pet store. Grrrrrrr.....


why not go to your local shelter and rescue an unwanted dog? I mean, they got the dog as a pet for their child, it's not like they need a purebred for mating or anything.

How about the family, their dog of two months, and the woman who gave the dog to them and then stole it from them? I think this case made Milian the angriest. Especially when the woman kept insisting that her feelings about the dog mattered more than the two (one four, the other 8) kids's feelings about losing their new dog.

Oh boy that woman pissed me off too. I was as angry as the judge. That woman has to be the most selfish woman I've seen on the show yet. It was all about her wanting the dogs back. Then she lies and makes up stories that the dog wasn't being fed properly. Ugh, if I was that mom my husband would have had to kept me from going over there and knocking her on her ass.

Did you notice her son was just smirking during the whole thing? I wanted to smack him too.

Grrrr.....just thinking about it makes me angry.

Oh, that case definately brought on the rage! I felt so sorry for the little girl who misses Peanut.

One of my all time favorite cases happened earlier this week. It was the weirdo lady who sued the rehab(?) center for false arrest. That woman reminds me of the stories my fiance has told me about his work in the geriatric unit of the state hospital.

Oy... the plaintiff in the first case today was loony. Did she really think storming out and the courtroom and smacking her husband in the face with a folder was a good idea?

how is this judge not more popular than judge judy? She's much more interesting than judge judy and so much more tolerable and funny. Did she just come into power after the judge craze ended? Or am I just not getting it? Any Judge Millan haters out there care to xplain the lack o love?

ITA Zonder. I can't even watch JJ because she's all about yelling and berating. No real justice at all. While Judge Milian actually listens and pays attention to whatever law applies. Even when she obviously thinks the defendant (or plaintiff) is a douchbag, and will tell them so, she still follows the law.

I guess it's all about the drama. JJ gives the smackdown, so she gets the ratings (just not mine).

The new season is off to a great start. Yesterday the first court case featured a guy who hired someone to put a wood floor in. He was suing the contractor for return of money that he claimed the guy stole. He claimed that he left a blank, signed check behind in a room and that the contractor took it. As he told his story (which Milian did not believe according to the questions she asked), he produced a contact, which he erased information from and then wrote over the numbers and the date (to make his story better). The contractor said he got the check from the guy, cashed it to buy supplies for floor, and then was nearly arrested by the cops (because the guy filed a complaint claiming the contractor stole the check). Then the contractor played a series of phone messages in which the guy said he should never have given him the money. Needless to say, Milian told the guy he lost the case, especially since he altered the evidence. The guy in the post court interview still kept saying that the contractor stole the check.

Best part? The guy said that he didn't trust the contractor from the begining.

Yesterday was awesome! I love when Milian just rips the people, in a very different way than Judge Judy (who I also enjoy). She makes them feel like a moron by purely logical reasons, its so amusing. I like how she is always willing to take a recess to really look at the evidence and weigh it fairly. She can really stick it to people, like with that lady who kept calling CPS on her neighbor for no reason and got the kid taken away. Why people think they can get away with this crap in the first place is unbelievable.

Plus I think the judge is adorable and those glasses she wears are a hoot!

Do y'all remember a case where a family went on vacation and when they returned their dog had been in a fight with another dog? The woman tried to say that the injury (which she and the vet's assistant missed because they were looking at the dog's OTHER left shoulder, I guess) and that Savannah had contracted LYME DISEASE from this episode. The people they left her with didn't see how the injury occurred and at first they offered to pay but she kept sending them nasty e-mails (which we didn't get to hear, unfortunately).

Anyway, the Plaintiff is really pissed and she's been posting for the last few months since her appearance here (in the People's Court forum of that site, her name is Sondra, and the thread is "My trip to People's Court -- no longer a fan). She seems on the verge of trying to sue JM, but I don't think she can do that. She's not letting it go.

Didn't that liar Thursday threaten to kill the contractor too? What an ass.

The woman suing her ex over a car.

"he's all up in my grill"

hehehehehe......I was laughing right along with the judge. That woman was too funny.

I love both Judge Judy and Judge Milian. I like that they have different styles of delivering verdicts.

Didya catch the case with the hole in the jacuzzi? I couldn't believe the plaintiff had the gall to tell JM that she called and lied to the manufacturer, trying to get them to fix it.

And the plaintiff so cheerfully volunteered that information. I was dying. "We told them a shampoo bottle fell on the jacuzzi." I couldn't believe that they would actually go on television and say that. Of course, I was also trying to figure how the tile job caused water to leak in the basement. But it seems to me that the plaintiff's father was the one who messed up the plumbing installation and they were trying to get other people to pay for their mistakes.

I had the most bizarre dream last night about JM. I dreamt she walked into the courtroom sporting a bowl(!) haircut with the sides and back shaved. Then she donned a blue curly-haired clown wig and ripped open her robe to reveal a shiny silver jumpsuit with a loop to hold her gavel and pockets to hold court documents.

No more tabouleh before bedtime.

I loved JM sniffing the lying plaintiff on Friday's show. She even smelled her fingers to prove she smokes. I like the "Where was your niece smoking?" reply which was "Outside the airport, like you said." Yeah, right. In a cramped up car or at home, I can see where she'd smell of smoke, especially her hair but not her fingers and the rest of her.

I didn't care much for the trailer rental lady either. Who cares if those things cost more than some people's homes? We're not impressed. We just want the bitch to get in trouble for smoking in it whether it was worth $150 or $150,000.
