Blueghost The family often stated "that's exactly what court is like!" Said family member often went to court to bring the nation's malefactors to justice.The truth is this show is a sendup of some of the more ridiculous moments that happen in the lower ranks of the American justice system, but, on occasion, the script presented here, have a modicum of truth to them. We saw the rekindling of careers here as well the start of careers of many an actor. The show was funny from day one, and kept getting funnier, albeit zanier and wackier as well. To the point of where, even for a sitcom, one was hard pressed to suspend their disbelief.Mole was funny, Thelma was funny, Judge Stone was funny, Dan Fielding was funny, Mac, Christine, Roz, the whole cast was funny. There were of course the moral tropes to the show, but I guess if you do a show about Night Court you're going to get some kind of 4th act reflection on who did what, why and the social ramifications thereof.Is night court really like this? Well, if you're investigating all of the malefactors in the US, then perhaps maybe, but somehow I doubt it.Either way it was worth a few laughs. If you see it as a rerun of see the DVD set, then take a chance on it.
Aaron1375 This show had a lot of cast changes during its first one or two seasons. Then it settled into a groove until the last season where it just got very strange and then had one of the worst finale episodes ever. Still, it was funny as Harry Anderson as the judge, John Larroquette as Dan the womanizing D.A. and Richard Moll as the dense, but good hearted Bull the bailiff were like the only three cast members to be in the show during its entire run and were the best characters. Mac, played by Charles Robinson and Markie Post as the public defender would also settle in and do well. The show had its problems with the second bailiff during its early run losing two older actresses as I believed both passed away, they would finally go with someone different in the form of Marsha Warfield. The show was simply about a court that operates at night (duh), and at times some very crazy things happen, near the end these things would get a bit to crazy. However, for the most part the show was funny as I tend to gravitate towards shows that revolve around a job or place of business more so than to a show that is about a family. A good show that was really funny during the middle stretch, but it did have a hard time getting out of the gate initially and kind of stumbled near the end.
nomoons11 this show was funnier. I'm quite amazed that they've only released 1 season of this show on DVD in its 8 year run. You younger users out there are really missing out on a fantastic 80's sitcom. If Dan Fielding isn't the Kramer of the 80's, I don't know who else coulda been . John Larroquette was just a comedy master.This show had an excellent example of what they call, and "ensemble cast". Everyone had a role and they played it perfect. They held their own alongside Cheers for 8 yrs and left w1 year before Cheers did with just as good ratings but it seems, Night Court has fallen off the DVD Release planet. Where are you NBC? Get off your butts and get us more seasons of this show to buy. You remember ratings right?
fearfulofspiders With great humor, hilarious characters, convincing stories and drama, Night Court is the show I recommend to anyone who likes situation comedies, and characters the audience can relate to.From the cameos to some of the darker subject-matter, there's no denying that this is a great show. The acting is terrific all around; the main title music is catchy; the stories are involving and genius, making it well worth your time.All in all, I highly recommend this show. It's innocent and funny. See this where ever you can, which as recently, for citizens of the United States, it airs in the morning on TV Land.
