real court cases with actors portraying the actual people

[disdressed12 · 5/10 · 20 March 2009]

billed s an early example of reality TV,this series presents 25 minute(or so)episode of 'real court cases' but with actors portraying the real people.and of course most,if not all of the names have been changed to protect the individual.the character of the judge is always the same,played by the same actor.some of the episodes are humorous,some are bizarre.the acting isn't that great,and i have hard time believing that a real judge would behave as unprofessionally as this one does in some of the episodes.it's not a classic show,by any means still,the show is mildly amusing,and interesting for it's historical value.for me,Night Court U:S:A: is a 5/10
