It is time to return to Night Court. NBC has ordered a sequel series with John Larroquette returning as attorney Dan Fielding and Melissa Rauch taking on the judge duties as Harry Stone’s daughter. The original series aired for nine seasons on NBC between 1984 and 1992. Dan Rubin (who wrote the pilot), Melissa Rauch, and Winston Rauch will serve as executive producers. Larroquette will produce.
NBC revealed more about the Night Court sequel in a press release.
“Unapologetically optimistic judge Abby Stone (Melissa Rauch), the daughter of the late Harry Stone, follows in her father’s footsteps as she presides over the night shift of a Manhattan arraignment court and tries to bring order to its crew of oddballs and cynics, most notably former night court prosecutor Dan Fielding (John Larroquette).”
The network will reveal a premiere date and further details for the series at a later time.
What do you think? Are you excited about the return of Night Court to NBC? Have you watched the original comedy series?
I so agree with you red
It would be nice to see some series regulars but most of the regulars are sadly gone. It won’t be the same::(
Hope it’s at least half as funny as the original.
I hope they get Richard Moll and Marcia Warfield
This was a really good comical show, I loved it and hope the return is just as good. Keep the old shows coming back. We loved them. I really hope they succeed.
This is silly. Three of the big stars have passed away. This show was only good because of Harry Anderson. Without Christine, Mac and Harry it will last four episodes.
Liked the original so will have to give this remake a chance. Looking forward to it!
I really enjoyed the original and look forward to watching this one.
I can hardly wait ! One of the best comedies ever !
Night Court worked because of the whole cast. I don’t see Dan Fielding pulling it off by himself… even if the new judge is Harry’s kid.
