I think alot of the cases are dull (there's no end to the "was it a gift or was it a loan?" cases), but when the cases are good, they're really good. Also, I actually like Judge Judy the person (alot of people seem to hate her) because I love seeing irresponsible/dishonest people get owned on TV and because she's pretty sharp and witty. Yes, she's pretty cocky and she can be mean at times (most of the time the person deserves it tho), but that's part of what makes her character so entertaining. The show would suck without her.
Anyway...
I think this is my favorite case. Basically, a cop sues this dumb spoiled girl for maliciously writing a false letter of complaint against him. The girl gets stopped for speeding, but instead of simply accepting the ticket, she tries to influence the officer by asking him if he knows who her father is (her father was an ex-polic officer) and when the cop leaves, she calls her father up and tries to get the sheriff to talk to him, but he refuses. The girl is mad, so she gets her parents to help her write a letter of complaint. So the cop sues her because the letter stays in his file and has the potential to negatively impact his career. In "court", the girl tries to act like the sheriff was rude to her, but the sheriff plays a tape, proving that he was extremely polite and that the girl was trying to use her father to get out of the ticket and the girl just ends up looking like a huge vindictive baby. Of course she gets chewed out by JJ and it's hilarious, especially since she starts crying. It's so satisfying!
What's your favorite?
