Palin's Court show is just one more insult to the institutions of government

A circus led by the poster child for ignorance of the law. But she'll be insulting ordinary people so the 'morans' will watch - they don't give a flying fuck about the law. You couldn't pay me to watch that.

They'll mock up a few ideas, prepare a pilot show or two, and then try to sell the concept to a network.

I think she's just a crazy person who is uncomfortable to watch. Her divisiveness and lack of good judgment work against her. What network would fund that kind of entertainment? Even the FOX "entertainment" arm leans left.

the process of law/justice as otherwise Palin would be open to charges of practicing law without a license?

for a while. It was worth watching, once, just to see how low things can go when you have to fill 500 channels with "something."

I imagine Palin trying to make sense of a silly lawsuit would be marginally worse, but someone might give it a shot.

If it does get a hearing after her last magnificent TV venture, it won't last too long. Sound more like desperation trying to keep her on TV.

that has a huge following among Latin American viewers, 'Doctora Polo'. It's the judge/court show in Spanish but with a much greater amount of 1) salacious details, 2)drama building, like having a cop arrest the Plaintiff, Plaintiff hitting Defendant, etc. and 3) The judge making decisions which have nothing to do with any law. And even with that, Dra. Polo is actually an attorney. I can't even imagine what this travesty will look like with Princess Sparklemoose on the bench.

For a title, I suggest "Rednek Justice".
