Out of all the judge TV shows produced during the 90s and 00's this one is probably the best. He has the best combination of entertainment value, compassion, and legal competency. The thing that impressed me the most about Judge Mathis was his ability to cut through the BS stories and lies and get to the truth, often tripping up litigants and tricking them into revealing the truth. His background growing up in the streets often showed when dealing with druggies, con men/women, and other shady types trying to pull one over on him. His compassion and conviction often showed when lecturing kids going down the wrong path, and challenging their negligent parents to do their jobs. Unlike shows like Judge Judy which I found to be too negative and cold he often lightened up the mood by joking with litigants adding more entertainment value (after all it is a TV show).
Compared to other judges like ... Judge Joe Brown (too old fashion and dull), Judge Judy (too mean), Judge Hatchett (too wimpy), Judge Milian (People's Court) (too loud) .. I think Judge Mathis was just right.
