All Rise!!! Judge Seidlin Says He's Ready for TV

Composite of Judge Siedlin and other TV judgesTMZ has learned Judge Larry Seidlin's dream is to become a judge on a TV courtroom show.

The endlessly entertaining Florida judge who is hearing the Anna Nicole case has had a TV show on the brain for months. Sources say Judge Seidlin has even made a demo tape of cases that were recorded in his courtroom.

Judge Seidlin, whose name is extremely similar to Judge Judy Sheindlin, graduated from night law school in New York. Seidlin was a taxi driver who worked his way through school. At 28, he was the youngest judge ever to be elected in Broward County. The 56-year-old judge is married with a young daughter.

153. This Judge is a disgrace, Anna Nicole, if anything should be buried beside her dead husband and have her son's body buried beside them, that is what killed her, the love of money, it is o.k. to like it, when she married this man when he died she vowed she will never stop fighting for that money til she is dead well she is dead now. She should be buried beside her husband that is the only husband she ever had, and it is his money they are all fighting for, let her have a decent going out, because all you are hearing is negative things. BURY HER BESIDE HER HUSBAND-BURY HER BESIDE HER HUSBAND-BURY HER BESIDE HER HUSBAND., ALL THE REST WERE BOY TOYS, THEY COULD NEVER AFFORD TO GIVE HER WHAT SHE EVER WANTED, SHE MARRIED ONE OF THE RICHES MEN IN THE WORLD, IT IS UNFORTUNATE SHE DID NOT KNOW HOW TO HANDLE HER WEALTH, BECAUSE HEALTH IS A LOT MORE IMPORTANT, WHAT DID SHE TAKE WITH HER (ABSOLUTELY NOTHING).

IT IS HIS MONEY SHA HAS BEEN FIGHTING FOR, AND FURTHER WHEN HER DAUGHTER IS OLDER SHE WILL NEED TO KNOW HOW COME SHE IS SO WEALTHY, HER BACKGROUND AND WHERE IT CAME FROM, WHAT DOES SHE KNOW ABOUT THE BAHAMAS, BURY HER WITH HER HUSBAND, GET HER SON'S BODY AND BURY HIM BESIDE HIS MOTHER AND STEP DAD.

159. This judge is a joke, what a pity, he will fill the TV court circuit beautifully along with
Judge Judy etc.
I have never seen a Judge act the way he acted.
Heaven Help us.

161. I was moved by the strategy used by Honorable Judge Seidlin, being honestly and fair to all, but being firm in making important discoveries for all to see, Howard Stern needed to hear about his mistakes. Listening to the media criticizing the Judge bothers me, specially after seeing the outcome, even though the mom is appealing the decision.

162. Judge Seidlin is refreshing! He is a person in the court, and a person who cares. He is extremely intelligent, creative, insightful, sensitive, and warm. I loved the way he invited the lawyers, principals, and witnesses to work with him to paint the canvas he had been given and on which he would make the final stroke. From the beginning, he instructed us that it was the daughter who would be paramount in his mind, since she was too young to speak for herself and whose mother's remains he would honor with grace. Because of his long experience, he was able to anticipate what was argued in his court., and and used that experience to abort dissonant voices which would interfere with the mission of the court. He insisted on an open court , in which nothing was to be decided in chambers. This openness included his own thoughts which he shared with the court, and therefore the viewing audience. He conducted this court with a skill and passion I have never seen before. I suspect he had inspired others. If he does become a TV Court Judge, and I hope he does, he will continue to inspire, I'm sure.

163.
This hearing must be one of the lowest points in the history of the American judicial system. The judge should be removed from the bench immediately, and prevented from ever using his position as a platform to mount a bid to win a TV series.

164. This guy was an idiot! I couldn't help but just sit there and wonder how a judge could be such an idiot! OR who is the even bigger idiot that put him in that chair! HE would ramble on about crap that wasn't even relevant. He would then place his opinion WAY WAY too much. A judge is a person who is to hear the case and judge on it by law, not by opinion. Also he was a VERY BAD ACTOR!! Trying to act like he was crying... Did anyone buy that nonsense???? It was so transparent that he was acting! Also he was dragging this case on way way way too long. Should have just forced the DNA test, end of case... (less than one day)
