In apreview clipof Monday’sEllen Show,Sheindlin tellsEllen DeGenereswhat led up to the decision.
“I’ve had a 25-year-long marriage with CBS and it’s been successful.
Next year will be our 25th season, silver anniversary,” Sheindlin says.
So what they decided to do was to sell a couple of years' worth of reruns."
CBS bought theJudge Judylibrary (consisting of 5,200 episodes) for $100 million.
