CULVER CITY, California - January 24, 2024 - Today, Amazon MGM Studios and Sox Entertainment announced a multi-year broadcast syndication deal for the Freevee Original Series, Judy Justice, featuring the renowned Judge Judy Sheindlin. Sox Entertainment has secured deals with major broadcast groups including Nexstar, Sunbeam, Cox Media, Weigel, and Mission Broadcasting in well over a 100 U.S broadcast markets including all of the top 10 and is set to premiere in the Fall of 2024.

"What a full circle moment," said Judge Judy Sheindlin. "This continues to be quite an adventure!"

"We are thrilled to bring Judy Justice to linear television audiences nationwide. With Judge Judy Sheindlin at the helm, viewers can expect a compelling and thought-provoking legal experience in high definition for the first time in broadcast," said Scott Koondel, CEO for Sox Entertainment and executive producer of Judy Justice. "I'm grateful that TV station groups have embraced this new innovative syndication model with talent that has been on broadcast stations for 28 years."

"We remain honored that Her Honor agreed to go on this streaming adventure with us," said Lauren Anderson, head of AVOD, unscripted, and targeted programming, Amazon MGM Studios. "Having firmly cemented her place as an icon of broadcast television, Judge Sheindlin took a pioneering risk bringing her new show and brand to a then-nascent service. Not only are we thrilled that her common sense, life skills building approach to justice has been a hit with cross-generational Amazon customers, we are beyond delighted that we, in partnership with Sox Entertainment, are now able to deliver Judy Justice back to hundreds of broadcast markets - and broadcast audiences - across North America. Full circle indeed."

Judy Justice, a court program presided over by Judge Judy Sheindlin, premiered on Amazon Freevee in November 2021. Judge Sheindlin is joined in the courtroom by newly minted lawyer Sarah Rose, who serves as the law clerk; court stenographer Whitney Kumar, a board-certified court reporter in the state of California; and bailiff Kevin Rasco, a retired Los Angeles probation officer. The program recently released its third season on Freevee and Prime Video on January 22, with new episodes released every weekday until April 5.
