Judy was really patient back then, I got annoyed at the constant arguing 😭

Yup

WOW Judy had a lot of patience back then. I kept waiting for her to tap the desk and yell hey!!!! 😂

That would probably be like 40 dollars in my country 😵‍💫

[@Eli-pj8xm]

@@peixeess And your point being? You have a different system where you probably have to give to the government half of what you earned in taxes. That is not the case in the US, and that is by design.

"that's either a yes or a no" love that this phrase goes all the way back to this first episode.

[@johnsmi213]

I was scrolling down while the video played and when I read your comment, I thought, "When did she say that?" and right then, she said it.

[@blugameplay]

Well I mean, it really is a yes or a no question lol. Idk how many people get a yes or no question and their answer is anything but lol

[@jennifer_mertens]

Classic example of why Judge Judy cuts off arguing between the litigants in such a quick manner(now). Their bickering was irritating. Also, I absolutely believe that the husband gives the boy a hard time. I'm shocked JJ didn't award some money for pain and suffering. The Plaintiff sued for harrassment, she should have sued for P&S on behalf of her son. He clearly suffered.

[@themirrorsofmymind]

*YES! His mother said his lip was hanging off!* The ER treatment he got was excellent because it's hardly noticeable but he was really traumatized by the bite. I think 2000 dollars was reasonable.

[@Liquid_silver88]

Proof? Your feelings don't account for anything

[@logan1829]

@@Liquid_silver88”Proof?” 🤓🤓

[@Poppyseed0990]

$564 medical bill would be about $1800 today!!!

[@taltamir]

add at least a zero to that number. just walking to the ER and getting a short consultation and being sent home with nothing being done with over 10,000 dollars. they put him in intensive care and under anesthesia and provided treatment. that is easily over 20k. IF you have insurance and go to your in network hospital. then the insurance gets a discount from the hospital of 90%. and you pay the remaining 10%. unless you have a plan that specifies a specific exact amount you pay for the visit.

[@kayd3021]

JJ didn’t even say “WE’RE DONE” 😂

[@JR-kg8ee]

She had definitely changed throughout the years 🤣

[@nicoledillard7358]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@Atrus999]

I'm glad she started cracking down on the bickering in the later seasons. It's kind of annoying. 😂

[@Callidus7SSM]

Super annoying. I’m so glad she started conducting her courtroom like an actual courtroom. She’s way more entertaining than any of the clowns that come on her show to boot.

[@m.justinelopez145]

[@MC-mh2ju]

What about that mullet?

[@m.justinelopez145]

And the mullet 😂

[@seanb8809]

You can see how lenient Judge Judy was back then. If that case happened now and they were yelling and arguing with each other, she would be screaming for them to shut up and either throw them out or dismiss their case.

[@S_Paoli]

plot twist... the boy and the girl are now happily married with each other... but their parents are still not speaking with each other

[@wintercame]

So that eliminates any in-law problems.😊

[@purplelove3666]

Till this day!?

[@amberr1241]

That would definitely make a cool Rom-Com!!! lol

[@S_Paoli]

@@amberr1241 when I was 13, I had a major crush on the girl who lived across the street from me. She was a year older than me and we went to the same school. We would talk and hangout after school, but always out of sight... because our parents hated each other. Our fathers actually worked in the same company, so that was probably where the tension came from. I was so sad when they moved away to New York.

[@amberdagoddess111]

Judge judy really changed through out the years lol she was so soft spoken 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@sothathappened]

WAS is the key word..... now she's biting off heads and spiting out bone fragments

[@dinahbrown902]

People’s ignorance will wear on you. I feel sorry for the children having parents who sound like wild animals. What disgusting people.

I like the current STFU Judge Judy-she let them yell at each other a lot

[@somethingcleverrrr]

Probably just more scripted now. She does it for views.

[@Callidus7SSM]

@@somethingcleverrrractually if you see footage of her in court back when she was New York City family court judge she was the ruthless, no nonsense boss she is today. It was actually probably more scripted in the early episodes because the producers thought her tough personality would be too much and turn viewers off.

[@iantempleton313]

JJ allowed a lot of interrupting back in the early episodes. So annoying lol

[@NH-tb2sm]

The medical bill was $564.87 nowadays it would be more than $10,000.

[@letsdiscussitoversometea8479]

I imagine that there wasn't as much of a narcissistic propensity in the medical and pharmaceutical industry to kill people financially back then. Certainly not in the UK anyway - the NHS was quite decent back then. Not so sure about the American healthcare system.

[@missyrose2154]

possibly if the pt is uninsured but most people have insurance now a days and it’s usually 🎉just a copay they pay and if they have Medicaid they would pay 0

[@davidwilliams8860]

Facts when they say things have change from the 90’s up til now that the prime example

[@DipsyMum29]

When JJ talks about what their children will be like in 20 years, I can’t help but wonder what kind of adult they did turn into.

[@yadusolparterre]

Can't be worse than the boy who's in prison for life and whose mom sued her own friend after indirectly causing her daughter's death

[@AGJ117]

I forgot that people used to argue with each other more in the earlier episodes. In the more recent episodes, argue and she'll dismiss your case outright and throw you out.

[@craig3240]

I’ve seen clips of Judge Judy in action before the show. She acted like we’ve always known her. The reason she’s different is possibly because we probably weren’t prepared for the ruthlessness yet. We had to get to know her. So she had to go easy at first so the audience could get accustomed.

[@fantasyrealm5960]

“You’re gonna pay for it eventually” damn that line went hard😂

[@steveb7429]

She is so spot on. And since that was in 1995, it would be interesting to see if her predictions were correct and how exactly did those kids turn out as adults

[@sherryelkins5270]

Who is that woman sitting on that bench and what has she done to judge Judy,,?!?!😂

[@noelcontreras9909]

Everyone saying JJ had patience but did we notice how when she started talking theyd stop arguing?

[@brandonm1881]

She was so calm

[@themirrorsofmymind]

Yeah, it was more like a talk show when it started since it was daytime TV. I think she wanted it to be more of a courtroom as the show continued.

[@ManorHQ]

If they're showing old episodes, then you know Bea Arthur and Johnny Rotten are going to show up on here soon. Edit: I almost forgot...Divine Brown, the sex worker that Hugh Grant was involved with in the 1990s, she's a litigant in an early episode too! This was when they were trying to get "names" on the show to get the ratings before they realized they already had the star of the show - JJ herself - and that's when she became more ferocious in later years because that's what sells the show.

[@ImOnAJourney]

This is Jerry Springer with a beautiful young judge! The male defendant is a creep with anger issues. JJ pulled him right away!

[@PorchElla]

As the years went by, JJ's patience with litigants became thinner!! This old episodes explain why 🙃 3:30 Hopefully, the litigants listened to JJ's speech 😂

[@weirdnomad8868]

The reason she let them argue was because this was the 90s and the era of Jerry Springer so people arguing was all the rage. If you watch her as a real judge she would've never let people argue like that.

[@fargocheef]

Great, now I have that retro outro music firmly lodged in my head! lol

[@emirom2]

When I was 4 (in 1990) I tripped on a step in our next door neighbor’s backyard. We were friends, yet their dad was worried that we were going to sue them. Which was absolutely ridiculous to think! Nowadays, I can totally see a family suing their neighbors for their own child tripping on a step…people are insane.

[@MC-mh2ju]

You’re old.

[@nthgth]

Yeah we've gotten increasingly litigious in general. Best we can do as individuals is lead by example and champion the "don't worry about it, shit happens." To a point of course.

[@MelissaBlue]

Often you have to sue in order for homeowners (or renters) insurance to cover the medical bills.

[@markbrandon7359]

JJ explains way back than why people are such scum bags now, bad parenting

[@wintercame]

A truly committed family court judge. Nothing means more to JJ than family. I think that's why she remarried her husband Jerry in the same year she divorced him (1990). Then put all her kids and grandkids through college.

[@TheAray6]

JJ today would have made the mother pay half for the medical bill because d/t her big mouth she admitted that she knew the dogs were in hit and displaying aggressive behavior but still allowed her son to go over their house. It would be one thing if defendants said they promised to lock them away before she brought her son over.

[@carmaxgamer2540]

Ahhh the fashion choices. Cant say i miss the shoulder pads. And had no idea Byrd was by Judys side for this long.

[@ahmedal-jubainawi4641]

Judy, she is the only show that I’m watching it every time I open the KZbin… Just listen to her… at 1994 still the same right now .. never changed and never made wrong judgment on any cases she had so far…

[@riapeters8339]

I need the judge Judy of today redo this case 😂

[@moonscar119]

Its crazy to see how tolerant JJ was back then towards the crosstalk and intereupting

[@susiesunshine43]

Wow, she was so much more patient back then, lol, you can tell!! I was so waiting on her to bang on the table and yell QUIET,lol!! The plaintiff should've got more money though IMO, for all the trauma it did to the poor boy!!

[@mmakreesekingjr2074]

So we're just going to ignore the fact that this man had pants in the courtroom like short shorts😂

[@Bujji0423]

Oh JJ dropped the ball here. She has now changed her stance on dog bites. Hospital bills and $5000 punitive. Period.

569 bucks is cheap for medical bills
