Who? Who is this guy? Why would I want to watch? This is one of those fake court shows, right?

No, Rick. The people are REAL. The cases are REAL. The litigants have agreed to have their cases heard in our forum, THE PEOPLE'S COURT. But it's not true that this is the first show of its kind. A small claims court show was televised back in the fifties.

Yeah, yeah, real. About as real as Pam Anderson's chest. It doesn't matter, because:

1) I was being sarcastic - as usual

2) I don't watch this tripe anyway.
