Judy Justice, the recently launched IMDb TV series starring Judge Judy Sheindlin, will return January 24 with new weekday episodes.
In addition to announcing the date, Amazon-owned IMDb TV also said it is launching a 24-7 streaming channel dedicated to the show, enabling viewers to dip into it anytime. Sheindlin embarked on a new career chapter last November with Amazon after a 25-year relationship with CBS Media Ventures came to a disharmonious end. (In an interview last June with The Wall Street Journal, Sheindlin said what had been a “nice marriage” was headed toward a “Bill and Melinda Gates divorce.”)
The new series reprises many of the tried-and-true elements of Judge Judy. (The names of upcoming cases include “Beauty Salon Brawl,” “Feuding Cousins” and “Unwanted Dog Pregnancy.”) Randy Douthit and Amy Freisleben, who spent 25 years with Sheindlin on her previous show, are back in key roles on Judy Justice, with Douthit exec producing and directing and Freisleben co-exec producing. Former CBS exec Scott Koondel is also an executive producer.
On IMDbTV, the Judy Justice channel will be flanked by 50 other destinations known in the industry by the acronym FAST, short for free ad-supported television. Although advertising is growing across on-demand streaming, FAST has also become a key element for hubs like Roku Channel, Tubi and Peacock, which followed Pluto TV’s early focus on live programming. Other channels housed on IMDb TV focus on Supermarket Sweep and Bob Barker-hosted episodes of The Price is Right. The rest are organized by themes like comedy and animation, or are partnership offerings like Tiny House Nation, Electric Now, America’s Test Kitchen, Crime 360 and This Old House.
