There will continue to be order in the court. No-nonsense Judge Judy Sheinlin has been signed to a new contract that will keep her on her syndicated TV series, Judge Judy, through 2015. In 2008, the show was renewed through the 17th season for 2012-13.
Judge Judy is the most-watched TV series in daytime television, attracting an average of 10 million viewers. The Oprah Winfrey Show is the court series’ closest competition and that will sign off later this month.
CBS TV Distribution president John Nogawski said. “Judy is in a class by herself… For 15 years, she’s delivered one of the highest-rated shows in all of syndication. She’s at the top of her game, and we’re excited to be in business with daytime’s #1 star.”
Sheinlin is 68 years old and reportedly earns $45 million a year to tape the daily series. She’s been on the TV bench since September 1996. She was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2006 and has been nominated for Emmy Awards more than a dozen times.
What do you think? Are you a fan of Judge Judy? Glad to hear she’s going to keep making shows?
I like Judge Milian much more. Sheidlin assumes too much without letting the litigants get their point across.
I’m a huge fan of Judge Judy since her program came on the air. I taped it while I was at work and since I retired I diligently watch her show. I love her wisdom,
sence of humor. I learn so much from her show, I love her and Byrd. I hope she stays on the air for many years to come. She looks amazing and I know she’s in great shape. Thank you Judge Judy for being you! God Bless!

I like her. I may disagree with her, but the law is the law can’t go on feelings. Sometimes I think she does but always says something about her experiences. I don’t think the ones that should watch the show watch her because the most cases deal with living together then breaking up and there you go — In front of Judge Judy. There is no common law. Then I guess would she have a show? Got to go, she’s on in two minutes.
I’m sorry but this lady has no sense at all, she’s always angry and smart ass talking people, she needs to find something better to do, probably only still doing this for the money. She’s only the top viewed show because broke ass people with basic cable or crappy satellite only get her channel and like 2 others. No person with good sense would watch this show.
Judge Judy is one of the few celebrities I respect. She makes me want to be a better citizen. I love the way she exposes the people who defraud the taxpayers (like me) through a plethora of government programs. I’d love to see her head up our US Dept. of Justice!
I love judge Judy! She needs to run for president! I think its hilarious hearing her give some of the losers on her show hell for being low life losers! Me personally if she started going off on me I would tell her to go to hell & kiss my but! But since im no low life who doesngt pay my bills or do stupid stuff ill never be in front of her. Its awesome watching such fire come out of such a little firecracker!!
