Beneath her entertaining quick comebacks and witty exterior, Judge Judy’s ability to cut through a dispute and get to the core of the emotional issue at hand enables her to provide guidance, direction and common sense to those whose lives have spiralled hectically out of control, and helps to bring healing to families and victims of injustice.

Series 6 sees Judy on top form as a woman claims a senior citizen is suing her because she rejected his sexual advances, ex-girlfriends of a deceased man fight for ownership of his couch, a woman from Cincinnati accuses her vengeful neighbour of stealing her dog, a woman loans her brother money on the condition that he leaves his wife, and neighbours threaten to poison a family dog for damaging their living room.

Series 2 opens with The Common Thread as ten bodies are found over 6 months in 1984 in Florida.
