| 4 | ''Kids Court'' is a 1988-1989 court show aimed at kids. The show was first aired on ''Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}'' hosted by the Creator/PaulProvenza. Each case would be solved by using ''The Honorable Judge O'Meter'', a cardboard rendering of an English judge. The meter can only be responded to by the sound of the loud audience. The loudest noises the audience makes wins the case. |
