FAQs

What is Judge Judy's famous line? ›

Judge Judy: If you live to be a hundred, you will never be as smart as me. On your BEST day, you're not as smart as *I* am on my WORST day.

On multiple occasions she has said nudnik (irritating person), kvetch (complain), and schmutz (dirt), to name a few. Judge Sheindlin said that her favorite Yiddish word is schmuck. Formally, this word translates as a part of the male anatomy, but it is used more informally to denote a fool.

I've heard that expression since 1948, Judge Judy wasn't even a teenager then. It can mean "don't give me a rambling explanation", or "you look like somebody who needs an excuse for looking so bad".

"You say no, I say yes; I win, I'm the judge." "I'm old; I can only do one thing at a time.

A SHAYNA MAIDEL means "a pretty girl" in Yiddish and explores how a family comes together in the aftermath of WWII.

Meshuga, meshuga'at (feminine), meshugah, meshuggah, meshugge, etc., means "crazy", "insane", or "mad" in Yiddish, borrowed from Hebrew.

Rather, it's that English “slob” has influenced the meaning of Yiddish zhlob (pronounced with the “o” as in “soft”), so among some speakers in America today, a zhlob and a slob are practically synonymous.

It's human nature to habitually preface one's explanation of something with the word "basically." Unfortunately, it's also one of Judge Judy's pet peeves. Sheindlin views the introduction of a sentence with the word "basically" as being an attempt to pad the facts with gratuitous formal-sounding adverbs.

#5—On Judge Judy, the losing party doesn't pay.

On Judge Judy, both sides are offered appearance fees, a daily wage and travel expenses for the duration of the taping. Once a decision is made, producers pay it to the victorious party.

Is Judge Judy's Stenographer related to her? ›

Being Judge Judy's stenographer wasn't actually my first endeavor. For 10 years now, I've co-owned a court reporting firm with my twin sister Kamryn. (Yes, I have an identical twin & we're both court reporters!)

According to many sources, "Judge Judy," like other courtroom shows, operated as a small-claims court, which limits awards to no more than $5,000. The shows' production companies pay the award, but participants get appearance fees as well as travel.

It features a similar format as before: a mock courtroom TV drama solving minor claims disputes. Her estimated net worth as of June 2023 is US$480 million, according to Forbes.
