Part of the fun of watching reality TV is watching the judges bicker, tease each other, and occasionally fall all over themselves with praise for a contestant. Some shows pick their judges at the start of the show and never waver; others add guest judges into the mix; still others (say, American Idol) add new full-time judges to shake things up. Tell me: Which reality show has your favorite judging panel overall?

I love Nigel on SYTYCD.
1It comes down to Top Chef and Project Runway for me. I voted Top Chef, because I don't know exactly what's going to happen with PR on its new network.
2SYTYCD judging panel s the best; they're specific in their criticism and in their praise. Nigel is great.
3Project Runway, even though I detest Nina Garcia. Heidi Klum & Michael Kors are hilarious though.
4Project Runway.
5I know Mary Murphy annoys a lot of people- but I love her and her screams! Linda McP ---> So true about their critiques!
6I think most of them are great for different reasons, but I went with Top Chef.
7I like the crazy lady in the picture, bottom left, my son and I laugh the whole time we have her on. She's nuts!
8SYTYCD judge panel are experts in their fields, and they appreciate people who have a passion for dance even if they need to work on. Other judges (ANTM) just try to insult you or be funny.
9SYTYCD, especially Nigel & Mary... the judges on the Canadian version are great too, we get Jean Marc Généreux full time
I love him!
10Top Chef!!
11Oh god, when it comes to judging, I always mute when Mary Murphy is speaking.
12oh man, this was hard. I had to go with Top Chef...as long as Toby Young isn't on panel. I wish Anthony Bourdain or Ted Allen were regular judges. ABDC and SYTYCD's judges come in next.
13I went with Project Runway, but I also like the judges on SYTYCD and Top Chef.
14i picked PR but i love TC too
15I had to pick Project Runway. I love that they always have a guest judge, and I love all three regular judges too.
16SYTYCD hands down. i love nigel. mary is alright, & i love guest judges especially Lil C
