NEW YORK , NY. (THECOUNT) — “The People’s Court” will end its 26th season run at the end of this season, Variety is reporting. Also canceled is “Judge Mathis,” which will shutter after 24 seasons.
Both shows come from Warner Bros. Unscripted Television in association with Telepictures Productions and are distributed by Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution.
According to reports, the decision was made due to the declining nature of the daytime syndication landscape. As local TV stations shrink their syndication dollars and the advertising marketplace shrinks for daytime syndication, first-run syndication has become a trickier landscape. At the same time, station groups have been expanding their local news broadcasts, also in a bid to save money.
