You Be the Judge was an early United States television game show, which aired on New York City television WCBW (now WCBS-TV) from 1946 to 194?. It is notable as an early example of television programming, though it was not a network series. In each episode, a real-life court case would be re-enacted, and three "amateur judges" (contestants) would make their decisions on the case. The "judge" who came closest the actual verdict would win a prize.

Episode status

Methods to record live television did not exist during the run of the series. As such, the series is likely lost today except possibly for still photographs.
