But on the bright side …. And IMHO be the judge is a much better production than Nairobi Law. But also that a good idea in the right hands and determination will see the light of day and in the long run (because of the creators vision) outdo the copies. Well… almost always J

@kris
Let me give you a quick overview about Nairobi Law. My partner in business approached citizen with an idea for a law programme in which real kenyan cases will be dramatised on TV. well, while my friend was waiting for feedback he saw nairobi law on TV!!! which was a hurried and poorly done version of what he had proposed.
He later did be the judge which aired on KTN and everyone thought he was the dubbist.
So here we see a genuine idea that was copied and the creator of the idea not compensated.

Question is, what constitutes an original idea? Is it something that has never been done in Kenya or the world? For example the mobile payment systems that all the mobile companies use in Kenya had you stepped up to Queen B and they told you blah blah they do it and the others copy it with modifications or enhancements to your idea is that theft?
There are guys who have spent some time out of the country and have seen shows on TV that they come and try and sell as there ideas what would be the outcome then if they did it but did not pay up?
