We the People with Gloria Allred - You may want to watch this show based on the famous judge, but it's all fake. Just like America's Court with Judge Ross, all of the people you see on this show are actors. Why not have real people like all the other court shows? The real problem is these Entertainment Studios fake court shows try to pass themselves on as having real cases. Unless you read the fine print at the end of these shows, you'd think it's real. Not fair to the viewer.
'Til Death - Awful FOX sitcom that no one watched premieres in syndication. No way this will last more than one season.

NEW COURT SHOW IS A FAKE!
Thursday, October 21, 2010
If you haven't checked out America's Court with Judge Ross, don't bother. The new court show is fake. The show, which looks very real, premiered in September. It's the latest project from Byron Allen's Entertainment Studios and is presided over by real judge Kevin Ross. The judge is the only thing that's real on this show. The litigants are all paid actors. Don't believe it? Check out the disclaimer at the end of the show that says all characters are fictional. What a joke. The show presents itself to be real and looks like any other court show. Total scam. Who wants to watch actors? Why even use them? Doesn't this "judge" have better things to do than preside over fake cases? Stick to Judge Judy.
