Byron Allen’s Allen Media Group Signs Judge Greg Mathis to Launch New Court Series “Mathis Court with Judge Mathis” for Fall 2023. The new court series is a daily one-hour strip for fall 2023, available to broadcast television stations, as well as global network, cable, and digital distribution platforms.
For 24 consecutive seasons, Warner Bros./Telepictures produced and distributed JUDGE MATHIS but recently announced its cancellation. JUDGE MATHIS was the second longest-running court show in production with the same host. For 24 seasons, Judge Greg Mathis presided over 13,000 cases on JUDGE MATHIS. JUDGE MATHIS won the Daytime Emmy in 2018 for Outstanding Legal/Courtroom Program, as well as the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding News, Talk or Information Series in 2004. Judge Greg Mathis is a former judge of Michigan’s 36th District Court.
“We at Allen Media Group are proud to add MATHIS COURT WITH JUDGE MATHIS to our amazing portfolio of court shows,” said Byron Allen, Founder/Chairman/CEO of Allen Media Group. “Judge Greg Mathis is an outstanding, charismatic, and iconic television host, and we are extremely confident that our eighth and newest court series with Judge Mathis will be very successful for years to come as he joins our outstanding roster of talent, including Judge Kevin Ross, Judge Mablean Ephriam, Judge Christina Perez, Judge Karen Mills-Francis, Judge Glenda Hatchett, Judge Lauren Lake, and Judge Eboni K. Williams.”
“For years I’ve proudly watched Byron Allen build a first-class global media empire. After 24 years on the air, I can’t think of a better company to work with to create my next great chapter,” said Judge Greg Mathis. “Byron and I are both from Detroit and it’s exciting to see him build the Motown of court programming by bringing together all of my fellow judges from his 8 court shows – who are the best of the best.”
