The main problem is Amy's fluctuating competency level... Come on, get a grip on that gavel.

No, it's not [NBC series] Providence. It's even more distressing: a painfully calculated Providence wannabe.

Amy benefits from a strong cast and a slightly harder-nosed attitude than its treacly forebear [NBC's Providence], but if this judge doesn't stop wearing her robe like a security blanket soon, she's going to try our patience.

Tyne Daly energizes CBS' Judging Amy whenever she appears. The problem is that Daly isn't the star of this legal/family drama. NYPD Blue alumna Amy Brenneman is, and though quite appealing, she can't elevate a conventional, sappy show.
July 19, 2019
Writer-producers John Tinker, Barbara Hall, Bill D'Elia and their intelligence-radiating star have turned out a crisply entertaining drama that's as crammed-full as Amy's docket.
July 18, 2019
Judging Amy has enough rough edges, racy storylines and coarse language to turn away the Touched By an Angel crowd. However, it isn't gritty enough to put a dent in the audience for Brenneman's old colleagues at NYPD Blue.

It's earnest and it has possibilities, but it's not all that great.

Thankfully, the show realizes it's sappy.
July 18, 2019
In an era of bawdy, sensationalistic reality shows, Judging Amy gives viewers an hour of solid family drama.
July 18, 2019
Has a lot of problems, no doubt a result of a hasty rewrite. Still, the show has a good premise.
July 12, 2019
Set in Hartford, "Amy" does well by its topicality.
July 18, 2019
Occasionally Judging Amy, a new CBS drama series, rises to heights that actually are dramatic. But mostly it just simmers sleepily, a bland and timid concoction straight from the TV equivalent of the supermarket shelf.
