I must have missed the memo or I’m not watching enough TV. When did this daytime show become so huge that she is worth $ 25. million per year? Her ratings are better than Oprahs?

JUDGE JUDY’S $100M WINDFALL

Industry insiders say that when Judge Judy Sheindlin re-upped her syndication contract for “Judge Judy,” it was for four years at a whopping $25 million per year - making her one of the best-paid television personalities ever.

“Syndication deals are like gold,” said one television industry insider. “Judge Judy has the best ratings in daytime TV.”

I watch 2 hours of Judge Judy every day…and People’s Court. I’m a sick, sick person.
