*Judge Lynn Toler is unpacking her real-life battle with mental illness (and finding her Black Girl Magic along the way) in ALLBLK’s new legal drama, “Judge Me Not.”
“Loosely based on the life of the famed Judge Lynn Toler, Judge Me Not is the story of Zelma Jay Johnson (Chyna Lane), an exceptionally bright, young Black woman who struggles with mental health issues, a ludicrous family, and volatile love life,” per the official synopsis.
“We join her as she takes on her new role as a judge in a court full of outrageous characters both in front of and behind the bench. As her passionate relationship with her live-in lover takes them both on a ride, she finds herself caught in the crosshairs of a psychological thriller that puts her life at risk,” the synopsis continues.
Created and executively produced by Toler (Divorce Court, Marriage Bootcamp), “Judge Me Not” also stars Javon Terrell, Terrence Green, Jonathan Chase, Gena Shaw, and Bonita Brisker.
“The honorable Judge Lynn Toler has been a part of the AMC Networks family for quite some time. First, we saw her on WE tv’s Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars; then leading the charge alongside Dr. Ish Major on Marriage Boot Camp: Hip Hop Edition and hosting her own series, Commit or Quit with Judge Lynn Toler,” said Brett Dismuke, General Manager, ALLBLK & WE tv, in s statement.
“Now, we have the opportunity to continue our relationship with this new compelling scripted series, as we work together to share Judge Toler’s incredible journey that led to the esteemed gravitas she carries today, in this new ALLBLK original series.”
Toler added “a municipal court is a fascinating, often amusing, study of human nature. Its where regular people go when they get caught doing irregular things. Judge Me Not presents you with that world through the eyes of a woman who’s not so regular herself.”
