*If you’re a fan of “Judge Mathis” and “The People’s Court,” we’ve got some devastating news for you. Unfortunately, both courtroom shows are on the docket to be canceled after the end of their 24th and 26th seasons.
Even though Judge Greg Mathis is the longest-running Black male host on television and the second-longest-reigning judge in courtroom television history, behind Judge Judy, it doesn’t matter, sadly he’s done… at least at this point in time.
Oh, and did we mention that he was the first African American jurist to win a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Legal/Courtroom Program in 2018?
Meanwhile, “The People’s Court,” with Judge Marilyn Milian, earned four Daytime Emmys for best courtroom show during her run, in 2014, 2015, 2020, and 2021.

Variety, quoting the shows’ producers, cited “the declining nature of the daytime syndication landscape” as the reason behind their decision.
As People notes, the end of these shows comes amid the ending of other daytime talk shows like Dr. Phil, The Wendy Williams Show, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Dr. Oz, and The Real.
