Jones, Jr., with no experience or desire to be an actor, by happenstance was persuaded in a telephone call by the producer of a popular local television courtroom program he had never seen. He flubbed the audition script, but by ad-libbing, he wound up a television "star" and the "Judge" with 20 million loyal viewers watching him each week for six and a half years (1958-1964) on three different American Broadcasting Company afternoon and evening award winning courtroom programs: "Traffic Court," "Day in Court," and "Accused."
