What makes it different from others?

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

I am a big fan of legal/court related shows; this one is definitely not one of them. I often feel pity for the litigants having to endure such disrepect from these judges, especially DiMango. She is obnoxious in every sense of the word often speaking over the person not allowing them to even present their case. She is loud, arrogant, and very unfair in her decisions which are more personal in nature rather than in following the law. I'm surprised anyone is even willing to appear as litigants in this show.

I love this show and I feel that most times the judges have it right. sometimes they are not too nice but neither is judge Judy. They are not their to be the defendant;s friend and in most cases i agree with their verdict. Most of the defendants are guilty and you can tell almost right away that they are lying and trying to get money that they are not entitled to.

To those that this show practices anything close to a fair evaluation of cases, sorry to inform you, it is a sham.I was on the show and have a deep knowledge of proper civil and alternative dispute resolution forums. Here are just some specific points to show how its just a television show posing as a legitimate legal forum:1. The actual court documents (e.g.,claims) are never reviewed by the television actors (they call themselves 'judges'). Instead, there is a one-paragraph explanation of the case created by the show's producers which is handed to the actors right before the show participants (they call them plaintiff and defendant) enter the stage (they call it a courtroom). It is filled with personal 'dirt' on the show participants which they focus on for television ratings, not the claims.2. If you try to present your case, evidence, or witnesses, the actors will shut you down, as they don't care because they only have 7 minutes with each set of show participants to ridicule, make fun, dig up dirt, and make an arbitrary decision. Remember, this show makes money on ratings and sensationalism, not a boring review of evidence as real courts do. 3. Although you will see the show participants take an oath, it is not enforceable as the show follows no rules of court or arbitration boards. In other words, the actors can do whatever they want as well as the participants, and there's no disincentive to lie, cheat, name call or do whatever they or the participants want. You'll notice the flags, robes, gavel are all for show and do not represent any state, federal or other legal entity.4. The show entices its participants to be on the show by offering a trip to L.A. and offering to pay the awards in the case. But after the participants agree, they are then sent an unconscionable 'arbitration' contract which takes away the participants rights to appeal, sue for defamation on national television, and states that no rules of any court or arbitration board are used. If you try to back out, they threaten the participants that if they don't sign the contract, they will hold the participants liable for $5-10K in show costs and travel and expenses of the participants. 5. Complaints to the California State Bar are useless. Again, this television show is not accountable to any legal body or follows any ADR rules. The Bar has no disciplinary oversight of attorneys who act as judges on the show. The Bar calls these 'judges' actors, not attorneys or judges. While these actors are current or past attorneys, they have questionable backgrounds, as Larry Bakman was disciplined by the Bar for domestic assault as an attorney. 6. Lastly, if you have a serious case in which you have financial damages, don't take it to this show. You'd have better luck flipping a coin on your chances for a fair hearing. They will use you as their punching dummy on national television for their benefit (not yours), and there's nothing you can do after they force you to sign their unlawful contracts.

Read the negative reviews and I agree with them. Its a bunch of judges that are annoying to watch. Attitudes with no respect for others.Tanya is the only one that has her head on straight, most of the time. Other two are so bad.I have never been on the show or even waste me time wanting to be on the show."bailiff" walks as if she is on a runway strip. Its like the Jerry Springer of Judge shows. Worse show to watch. I tried to give it a change and watch it maybe a dozen times but there is a no hope on it.Network should throw on a rerun show of anything to replace them.
