  1. I have read JJ is coming to an end, but she already has a program set to take its place. Can't remember the name. Something like, "Judy's Justice." She was arguing with someone the other day ago about a packing slip that didn't list the price of the item. She had never seen that before in, lo, these many years. I think her wealth has her so far removed from ordinary life that she probably never has seen a remote start for a car, or a packing slip. She probably has servants to take care of small details. She does seem to be losing it a little and if I were one of her children, it would be cause for concern.
  2. I’ve noticed JJ seems to resent anyone turning a profit on anything. She didn’t approve of the price the guy paid for the old VW and went on and on about the blue book value of the red-carpeted/headed creature’s car. If two people agree on a price, it really doesn’t matter if someone’s getting a “steal.” We’re all supposed to do our homework on the value of things, and the internet has all kinds of tools for that. She chided a litigant the other day for selling his house for a profit. “Everyone else is underwater on their house, but you made a tidy profit!” What is her problem?!
  3. Arin was between a rock and a hard place. His prom date was wearing red and black but I’m sure Nancy dinged him because those colors were not springy enough. Seems to me guys in the 80s were emulating Miami Vice suits with tropical colors, no socks and a stubble. I don’t recall the argyle look shown. Arin seemed to think he had it in the bag.
  4. Right! The plaintiff was saying that they were still hanging around the apartment complex waiting for the windshield to defrost, but they had driven over there, so presumably the windshield was clear. Felt very bad for the defendant who believed the baby to be his. He nearly broke down in the hall-terview.
  5. Don't know if it's been mentioned here yet, but I hate the Tom Selleck reverse mortgage ads. He comes across so condescending! First he says something like, "This is not my first rodeo." A few minutes later he says something like, "I've been around long enough to know." Geez! We get it, Oh Wise One, we should not question anything you say. The guy used to be so good looking, but now his face looks pinched, as if he's been constipated for a long time. Come to think of it, his voice sounds that way too. Maybe he's stressed about his reverse mortgage.
  6. Exactly! It's possible the homeowners had an invisible fence, although the defendant said his wife had trained the dog well. The German Shepherd never left its own yard. Sorry about the other dog's injuries, but it was clearly in the shepherd's yard and the little girl was not able to pull her dog back onto the sidewalk. The plaintiff should not have had to pay "A ZERO."
  7. Sooo glad Christine got the boot. She tried to come across to the judges as a warm hearted person, but she showed her true colors. She seemed to have forgotten about her flowers until the last 15 minutes, and she had all the tools in the world to make some amazing decorations. Hope Tati wins. She seems very talented. Wish they had explained the differences between crisps, crumbles and cobblers. I didn’t know Bettys had bread in them. Isn’t that bread pudding?
  8. In my line of work I used to see a lot of itemized funeral and burial expenses, and I was amazed that beautiful, large headstone cost only $850. JJ did not illustrate the four corners of a contract in the air, which was a huge letdown for me. Don’t like JJ’s Ruth Bader Ginsberg haircut. JJ has too long a widow’s peak for it, and her other hairstyle made her look younger.
  9. Despicable! I get asked a lot to help friends and acquaintances with computer problems and people share their passwords with me on all kinds of applications, but I would never dream of snooping on anyone. I’m surprised JJ didn’t seem to pick up on that. My gosh, Judy had serious anger management problems in this episode! I think there should be ratings for her shows, such as: E- Educational (JJ illustrates the doctrine of “clean hands” or the four corners of a contract or other legal principles); C- Cray, cray (plaintiff or defendant demonstrate crazy eyes or crazy behaviour) X- Expertise (JJ demonstrates her expert knowledge in accident reconstruction, jewelry appraisals; normal wear and tear on leased premises, etc.); T- Talk Over Me Quotient (The decibel level reached in any episode while JJ, plaintiff and/or defendant try to talk over one another. Additional points are added if JJ uses her ballpoint pen as a gavel; and A- Admonishments. Includes sharp criticisms by JJ to either party for drinking the water, crossing one’s arms, not standing up straight, for thinking they were coming to a tea dance or audition. What am I forgetting?
  10. I enjoyed the shows, but I despised having to watch Guy and his son watch the show. I would have liked to hear the chef talk about his experience cooking with a Moroccan cooking vessel, but it was drowned out by Guy’s blather with his son. FN has been taken over by Guy Fieri and his penchant for “Triple D,” “Triple G,” and now TOC. I made that up. Listening to him makes my head hurt. Loved Marcus’s hat.
  11. We'll probably recognize plaintiff on some future ID show. Hey, "Web of Lies" producers, there's plenty of fresh material to be gleaned from JJ episodes.
  12. It was so refreshing to see someone who claimed to have made payments on something and actually had receipts to prove it. I think JJ wanted to burst out in song when she saw the receipts. JJ kept saying the defendant's boyfriend was some kind of loser for spending the money and not turning over the car, but the defendant seemed as much a loser. Too bad tight-fisted JJ didn't give the plaintiff some interest on that money. Seems to me that the car was to have been turned over to plaintiff two years ago, and the $3,400 won't go as far,
  13. Daughter smirked a lot, but when she was asked about what property was stolen by defendant, all she could come up with was a portable oxygen tank, some pool sticks and baseball caps. Geez, have some respect for the 15-17 year relationship your father had with this woman. You got the house, you got everything. You won. Now go home and pat yourself on the back that you did not permit this woman a single memento, not even a baseball cap. Aren’t you proud of yourself?
  14. Don't know the baker's name, but she actually tied as a winner for the pre-heat. Her cat eclair had absolutely NO decorations. It looked like a carrot. How does a carrot win over some real attempts at cat decorations? Then the same baker was not eliminated for her "abstract" poodle. Boo! Hiss! The awkward guy had a beautiful dessert, but I don't remember what dog/sport combo he had. They should give Franck and Florian their own show with subtitles.
  15. I'm not sure if there was a language barrier, but it seems to me the defendant was trying to explain that she used a remote starter to start her car. JJ went ballistic. "YOU CAN'T START A CAR WITHOUT TOUCHING THE BRAKE PEDAL!!!" Judy probably gets driven everywhere in a limo and is out of touch with remote starters and voice commands for a car. Defendant's household was odd to say the least. The answer they filed was corrected to say that instead of doing housework, she was leaving for work. She was "warming up" her car on a June day. The wife also testified that as soon as the garage door opened, or the front door opened, or bells went off, or something, her mother began doing landscaping in the front yard. I watched the video where they claim the plaintiff's dog was in their front yard. Geez, it might have stepped over from the sidewalk to put a foot in their yard. My husband and I observe a man in our sub encourage his male dog to raise his leg and urinate on our brick mailbox, but when we've confronted him about it, he denies it.
  16. I didn’t believe the plaintiff’s daughter, and I think her daughter stole the money. The daughter claims she saw the defendant rummaging around in plaintiff’s purse. Her mom took her to school but the daughter never mentioned it until after school. Daughter pondered over the matter and all that the defendant had put her mother through. Translation: Daughter took the money and hatched a plan in school to make the defendant a scapegoat. Defendant offered to help plaintiff out but claimed plaintiff paid her rent and that was the end of that. Translation: He wanted a friend with occasional benefits and no emotional commitments. He was working two jobs; why would he need to steal money? The daughter is 13 going on 30.
  17. Oh, you missed one of her typical, "If you can't keep quiet, I'm gonna throw you outta here and find for the plaintiff!" warnings. In all the years of watching JJ, I've never actually seen her rule in anyone's favor just because the opposing side wouldn't be quiet. Since next year is JJ's last, I think the producers should compile a series of "best of" shows, and the first one should be a compilation of best phone calls.
  18. Two phone calls! Wow! Who knew she spent three years in post-graduate work to make crummy phone calls from her fake office with dusty silk plants, an empty blotter and no sign of even an extra paper clip on the desk. She needs a photo collage of Jerry and all the grandkids on the desk—faces blurred, of course. Unbelievable that she’s able to reach anyone. No one I know answers a call from an unknown number. I dreaded hearing the bicycle case. Judy fancies herself to be an accident reconstructionist and police reports be damned. Bicyclist had a Cindy-Brady-hypnotized by the cameras demeanor. JJ seemed baffled about the witness statements, too. JJ: “Where are the witness statements?” Plaintiff: “On the bottom of the police report.” JJ: “Here? Where it says, ‘Witness Statements?’” Plaintiff: “Yes.” JJ: ”You can’t tell me that. I don’t know that.” Huh?
  19. I don't understand why Judy dismissed the defendants' counterclaim. Their dog suffered injuries, and they had an unplanned pregnancy. Google says plaintiff was convicted of shooting and killing his ex-girlfriend with a shotgun. How is it he's walking around a free man? Is he not being supervised? How he is permitted to travel outside of his jurisdiction? Who were the people he brought? Sounded like he was renting a room down the hall from the landlord and she had one bathroom for both to share. Her rules (no alcohol, no women and no overnight guests) seemed like something out of the 40s. I imagine her and the convicted murderer sitting around the breakfast table spreading jam on toast and I have to laugh.
  20. Plaintiff said her husband absolutely adored his boy, so he was clearly alive and married at the time of the baby’s birth. In my state there is a presumption that any children born of the marriage are the husband’s. Don’t know why the defendant kept missing court dates if it was so important to him. Yes, JJ’s questions were very confusing (“In the nine months between the time of their separation, the second full moon of any given month and Thomas Edison’s birthday, were you intimate with the plaintiff?”) but the defendant didn’t seem like a bright guy. Plaintiff’s morbidly obese fiancé seemed like another heart attack waiting to happen. She’s probably some sort of black widow, marrying unhealthy males and insuring them with policies that don’t require examinations.
  21. There is much more to the story than was said. I was actually surprised to hear defendant say she wants her father to have a relationship with her son; I expected the usual “you’ll never see your grandchildren again” ploy.
  22. Seemed like everyone was using mirror glaze. Is that even edible? Strawberries don't even come into season in my neck of the woods until June and blueberries, August. When I saw the challenge, it occurred to me that they've officially run out of ideas.
  23. Sounded like the defendant was contractually bound to pay a per person penalty for the number of guests over eight. Judy refused to consider that because "the plaintiff was just asking for trouble renting his condo to a young man for New Year's Eve." Excuse me? They had a contract. The defendant was an adult and should have to face the consequences of allowing strangers into the premises and trashing the place. Can't stand how JJ says, "We're done!" whenever she's decided it's her sushi hour.
  24. Exactly right! It was almost as if they had a laugh track, because the most innocuous remark brought the booming laughter of what sounded like 50 people. Stick of the stupid twists, too! "How am I going to make Kaopectate work in my lemon/coffee tart?" Nancy: "I'm not getting the Kaopectate. Your lemon overwhelms." I like Clinton but not on this show. Anyone else notice how--in the opening credits--they're showing fields and wildlife as if the contestants were out in some glorious meadow somewhere (ala The Great British Baking Championship)? The bear's butt was cute. I've seen that idea in Easter cakes.
