A reality show for a post-Jeremy Kyle world.
Barbara Speed, i Newspaper, 29th May 2019Romesh Ranganathan returns, flanked by Tom Davis and Jessica Knappett, to adjudicate on real disputes. Opening this double bill are a pair of actors fighting over roles such as "Family Member No 13", and two rappers with very mild beef. As a device to set up Ranganathan for cutting comebacks, it is ideal.

The Guardian, 8th August 2018Judge Romesh preview
Given that Romesh Ranganathan's entire comedy shtick is to be grumpy, intolerant and judgmental, it's perfect casting to have him as a judge.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 8th August 2018TV preview: Judge Romesh, Dave
It's harmless fun - I'm not sure if the verdicts are legally binding - I'm just concerned that the power might go to Ranganathan's head and he might start wearing those robes wherever he goes. And also carrying that hammer around with him.
