Yup. A new* TV courtroom show, and this one makes Judge Judy look like fucking Shari Lewis. It's "Eye for an Eye," apparently airing in Philadelphia on the WB at 3 AM. Don't let that fool you though, this show is bound to be a sensation. The premise is obvious - a judge hears redneck idiots argue about some drunken bullshit, and then makes a ruling. The punishment, however, isn't monetary compensation, but instead, yes, direct retribution. So if some jackass breaks your windshield for sleepin' with his baby momma, you get to smash in his windshield. You see what happens Larry? The Bat of Justice happens.
I love this show. I haven't seen it yet, and I love it.
Did I mention Kato Kaelin is the host? What if I told you that the judge is named "Extreme Akim"? Is that something you'd be interested in?
Not me, particularly. I'm mostly interested in the Bat of Justice. Which, in case you didn't check out the link above, they're SELLING ON THEIR WEBSITE. I give the over/under on two months before someone commits a murder with this thing, and this show gets sued like crazy. Maybe the suit can be heard as part of the show, they can rule against themselves, and the family of the murder victim can bring retribution on Kato, the judge, the producers, hell, everyone involved. It'd be like a Shakespearian play-within-a-play, only with fewer teeth. Advantage: Bat of Justice.
Next step: Sledgehammer Court.
*note - this thing apparently has been around for like 3 years. Who knew? The greatest trick the Bat of Justice ever pulled, was convincing the world it didn't exist.
