For the most part, no, not for a simple reference (e.g. "I was sitting there watching The People's Court when I heard the shots").

If the TV show is central to the plot, however (e.g. "The People's Court Slayer Strikes Again") you may wish to contact an experienced IP attorney not only for copyright issues, but in many cases for trademark advice. At the very least, you will include a disclaimer in the credits to acknowledge the proper rightsholders.
