Angry More Judge shows?!?!?!!?

This is getting rediculous. It's at an unignorable extent now. All of my syndicated networks have been polluted by the same damn "Wisecracking judge presiding over trailer trash" show over and over. AS it stands there's over 12 hours of this crap on 2 channels alone. Some even air some twice...2 hours of some ones per day.

So far on the air is:
  1. Judge Joe Brown
  2. Judge Mathis
  3. Christina's Court
  4. Judge Hatchett
  5. Judge Alex
  6. Divorce Court
  7. People
  8. Judge Maria Lopez
  9. and the one who opened the can of worms herself, Judge Judy

I mean, 2 or 3 knock offs I can stand, but 8?!?! It's like every year one flops, and they place 2 more in its stead. Maria Lopez is a corrupt Judge from Massachusettes who sided with a child sex offender and let him go. And what the hell do we need a "Christina's Court" for?

Anyone else sick to death of these?

I don't watch TV, this would be part of the reason why.

man! I can't stand the Judge shows

Where I work, at lunch, EVERYONE wants to watch them. I used to sit there and listen...then try and ignore it. all that arguing and fighting and sadness and angst. I had all that when I lived at home with my parents...i don't need anymore now.

Aren't there any happy shows they can make instead? I'm tired of everyone being angry all the time

Why the shell would anyone want to watch them?

I mean, being cronically unemployed I have to do things with my days, and when I'm drawing stuff I like the TV on as background noise. Just months ago there was the Cosby show, Taxi, King of the hill... now it's all that crap, plus 2 new Dr. Phil knockoffs. What ever happened to daytime cartoon shows, too? They don't have that mcuh competition from 3 channels on cable, do they? Too good for old episodes of something. They don't even have Looney Tunes and Woody Woodpecker anymore. Sad.

My TV doubles as my PC monitor, and my gaming screen. There are two reasons I turn on the actual TV. Dancing With the Stars because it reminds me old-school variety shows, and Adult Swim....because...it's Adult Swim. "Bwa-bak-bak-bak."

And who in their right mind would volentarially watch a local syndicated network anyways? Makes me sick thinking about all that sh*t.

Internet for the win.

there are exactly 7 people in the WHOLE world whose problems I care to listen to. 3 friends, my mom and Dad, my biological little brother, and my boyfriend. Beyond that...I don't need anyone else's drama.

It depresses me to hear other people screaming at each other...or getting a divorce or what have you.
