Court TV

Pros: Informative and education on Law and Crimes
Cons: Not enough LIVE trials

It is a fact that not everyone will agree on the out come of the trials that Court TV presents. There will be some court cases that just will not interest you. As individuals we all have different interest that intrigue each of us. However, if you...

Pros: Excellent true-crime programming
Cons: reruns the movies pretty frequently, a lot of commercials

I very much enjoy the programming on Court TV. For a true crime buff, this channel is like True Crime Programming Heaven! For those of you unfamiliar with Court TV, this is a network that carries today's "hot" live trials as well as a...

Pros: Real TV; excellent programming; you can learn something here
Cons: Paid Programming on weekends

As I sit and work on Epinions today I catch myself watching my second addiction 'Court TV'. The trial currently catching my attention is about a cross-dressing millionaire dermatologist who allegedy shot his wife in her home. And yes, this is real,...

Pros: Funny
Cons: Judges aren't fair sometimes

I really don't understand why these people go on these court shows and air their divorces, their troubles, their problems, or anything else that is wrong with them. I personally wouldn't do it. But, I'm glad they do, because I really get a kick out of...

Pros: Live and taped trials. Great live commentary. Great primetime programs.
Cons: Not enough live trials.

We hear about new trails on the news every day. Remember the scandal of Jenny Jones show? Or the most recent trial of Rae Carruth, accused of murdering his pregnant girlfriend? On network news, we learn about the start and the result of such trials, but...

Pros: Interesting, Entertaining
Cons: None

My husband works second shift so I find myself watching a lot of television to pass the time. I started watching Judge Jude about a year ago. At first I thought it was kind of strange that all of these people would appear on television and air out their...

Pros: The case is settled
Cons: to much trash from the judge

I don't see why anybody would want to waste thier time watching this trashy show. It is not entertainment or anything near it. This is a woman who has so much power that she abuses it. If there were actual lawyers in the court room she would have been...

Pros: Real Trials plus great programs
Cons: none

If you're interested in crime this is definately the station for you. The programming is excellent. I love being able to see the actual trials. I've always been fascinated with the subject and the OJ trial was the first time I'd seen the inside of a...

Pros: I still love court TV
Cons: read this

I recently watched an open court hearing of a 12 year old boy that was made to babysit his 19 month old cousin while his aunt, uncle and father worked. This boy babysat three nights a week and weekends for about 4 months. The boy (Jason Whala) expressed...

Pros: The show Cops
Cons: Can't find anything else to watch on this channel

The only thing that interests me on Court TV is the show Cops. I have never found anything else on the channel worth watching, or that peaks my interest. So over all I will give it an average rating. Only because I do watch almost every single episode of...

Pros: riveting gavel-to-gavel trial coverage
Cons: inopportune commercial breaks made much longer by repetitive Court TV promos, and uninformed guest 'experts'

Court TV is dedicated to the American court system. It features live trials gavel-to-gavel, and when there isn't a live trial currently available, it features highlights of previously-covered trials. As a trial proceeds, there is a host anchor,...

Pros: Interesting, Learning Experience
Cons: A few boring moments from time to time

I starting watching Court TV about the time of the O.J. Simpson trial..who didn't? I was so amazed watching the antics of the lawyers on each side and their questioning tactics. Of course this was an unusual trial, but it got me hooked on this channel....

Pros: Wonderful show
Cons: No longer a running series and can only be seen on Court Tv

I missed Homocide when it was a new show. I am however lucky to catch it nightly on Court Tv. Every night at nine in the evening the house is dark and the television is on..tuned to channel 99 (Court Tv).

My mother use to tell me to watch...

Pros: Interesting, harsh but fair
Cons: Sometimes doesn't listen if she takes a dislike to one side

I believe that if the justice system had more judges like judge Judy the criminals of today and the criminals of tomorrow would maybe have more respect for the law. Personally I would never want to appear before her if I was in the wrong! She is one hard...

Pros: INTERESTING AND ENTERTAINING . . . Yes !
Cons: It is television ya know?

WAY TO GO JUDGE JUDY ! When I first started watching Judge Judy, I thought of it as pure amusement. Couldn't and still cannot understand why people choose to come on television and exploit themselves all over national television. Then I thought about how...
