Joseph A. Wapner, a retired California judge whose flinty-folksy style of resolving disputes on the show “The People’s Court” helped spawn an entire genre of courtroom-based reality television with no-nonsense jurists and often clueless litigants, died Feb. 26 at his home in Los Angeles. He was 97.

A grandson, Gabriel Wapner, confirmed the death but did not know the immediate cause. Judge Wapner had several strokes in recent years.

“The People’s Court,” which the silver-haired Wapner hosted from 1981 to 1993, was a syndicated half-hour show that turned private arbitration of small-claims cases into highly engrossing entertainment.

He chased Helen through a tornado to get her to sign the divorce papers. Inspiration.

Seemed excessive.

Nothing says you've moved on like a dead deer in the back of the truck.

Storm chasers, in real life, pay their respects to Bill Paxton. I would go ahead and just click on the link so you can see the picture of what they did to honor the man from Twister:
Storm chasers combined forces this afternoon to pay tribute to a man who put them on the map by literally putting his initials on their maps. Hundreds of professionals and enthusiasts are checking in to form the letters “BP” with their GPS coordinates.

His most iconic role IMHO.

I just caught a few minutes of Arnies 'Commando' over the weekend, and I was surprised to see Paxton with a bit part as a Naval Radar Officer.
