Anyone here remember the old Divorce Court tv show.

Perhaps one of the best known such programs was Divorce Court, which initially ran from 1958 until 1969. It was sold to local stations, and gained notoriety for featuring cases involving adultery. In those days, cheating on a spouse was not tolerated; viewers had to decide whether the husband or the wife was fooling around before the judge made his final ruling.

I remember my Grandmother would be glued to this silly show.

She would even yell at the tv.

The show was very serious but I thought it was silly.

1. that was something I was not allowed to watch!

Evil people on that, destroying the sanctity of marriage!

2. I was just a little kid but I didn't understand why anyone would want to

be on TV with this problem.

3. I guess I wanted to watch it because I couldn't...

...I can't stand these judge-type shows these days, though.

4. I used to watch Judge Judy but I got tired of it.

The old court show as something else.

I think a lot of the show went over my head being so young.

5. Could never stand her...she's a Repuke, for one, and two, I could not

stomach her berating the people on the show and the people letting her!

6. She was mean.

There are lot of similar court shows now.

7. She was ground-breaker, which actually wasn't a good thing...

...IMHO. Buenas noches!

8. Yeah, sure do.

My dad was an attorney and his favorite show was Perry Mason, of course.

The cheesiest show I remember, very dimly, is "Queen for a Day".
