THE PEOPLE'S SUPREME COURT
Syndicated, 7:00 p.m. ET
SERIES PREMIERE: This new syndicated series has been rushed into production, in hopes of capitalizing on political and judicial gridlock should the confirmation of U.S. Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch be stalled. That would leave the highest court in the land with a general 4-4 ideological divide, and the chances for lower court rulings to stand until a ninth Supreme Court judge finally is approved. This is where The People’s Supreme Court comes in: petitioners normally arguing before the full Supreme Court could opt to appear in this unofficial televised courtroom instead. And who’s presiding? Judge Wapner is dead, Judge Judy is busy – so this opportunistic TV series is handing its very unofficial gavel to a very unofficial judge… Judge Reinhold. Check local listings.
