Judgement Day - On Channel 11

I'm sick at home With very little to do So I put on the T.V. To see what's new. Judge Mathis is on Followed by Judge Joe, Then the lovely Judge Marilyn, She's my favourite, you know. Other people's troubles Are so often funny. The silly things they sue for To get a little money. Afternoon television Is really a joke. It's judge shows or soaps Or those Jerry Springer folk. So after Mathis and Joe And Marilyn. who's great, There's the hunky Judge Alex And then it's a date With the Queen of them all, That would be Judge Judy. She'll rip them to shrieds If they act at all moody. After a week of being sick There's one thing I know, If I need to sue someone It won't be on a show.

That's the kind of television people get to see during the daytime if they are disabled or unemployed. Their sponsors are always law firms or training schools. You have described them all well with your words and rhyme.

A lot of the time these TV Programmes are more funny than series Francine. You have captured their scenes with aplomb. Have a lovely weekend, and I hope your feeling better....;)

LOL :) I always get a kick out of watching Judge Judy, but I'd never want to be standing before her in a courtroom. She really does rip people to shreds. Judge Joe is pretty nice and I like his sense of humor. Very creative and funny entry for the contest, Francine. Also, regarding Daniel, he is getting around with a walker but can't climb the stairs to get on his computer. I made a correction in the blog. Thanks for your prayers for Dan. He's a great guy. Love, Carolyn
