Judging Amy was a CBS network drama series created by Amy Brenneman (who starred on the show as the lead character), Bill D'Elia, John Tinker and Connie Tavel.
The show also starred Tyne Daly, Richard T. Jones, Dan Futterman, Marcus Giamatti, Jessica Tuck, Karle Warren, Jillian Armenante, Kevin Rahm and Timothy Omundson.

Plot[]
Based on the life experiences of Amy Brenneman's mother, the series was about Amy Gray, a former New York attorney who moves back to her hometown of Hartford, Connecticut with her young daughter, Lauren after separating (& later divorcing) her husband and becomes a family court judge.
Amy and Lauren live with Amy's mother, Maxine Gray who works as a social worker for the Department of Children and Families (DCF).
In the de facto series finale (the series was canceled after the conclusion of the season), Amy quits the judiciary to run for the United States Senate.

Broadcast[]
After six seasons, Judging Amy was canceled by CBS on May 18, 2005. In the United States, repeats aired on TNT until the fall of 2007. On July 17, 2011, UP (the former Gospel Music Channel) began airing the series daily, albeit with content and episode edits (including episode removals) to conform to the network's programming direction and ownership. Since February 2016 it has aired more intermittently on the network, mainly in the form of all-day marathons (episode removals have been relaxed under a more secular programming direction that included fellow Connecticut-set series Gilmore Girls being added to UP's schedule).
Judging Amy is broadcast in Australia on channels ELEVEN and 111 Hits and in New Zealand on Prime. In Canada, the show aired on channel Séries+ and, beginning in September 2017, in French with described video on AMI-télé. Ireland's TV3 carried the show, as did UK stations Living TV, Hallmark, Channel 4, and CBS Drama, Israel's YES Base Channel also carries the show.
