Night Court has found its new prosecutor. Following the departure of India de Beaufort at the end of season two, NBC has tapped Wendie Malick (Hot in Cleveland, right) to come in and take on public defender Dan Fielding in the courtroom.
It seems the two litigators have a bit of a history. Deadline revealed the following about Malick’s role as prosecutor:
Julianne Walters (Malick) is new to most but not to Dan Fielding (John Larroquette), her former love interest. She is described as ‘a reformed convict’ who is ‘a sophisticated, savvy woman and accomplished attorney who also knows how to make a shank out of a spoon.’ She will keep everyone in the courthouse on their toes.
Melissa Rauch leads the courtroom as Abby, the daughter of Harry Stone in this sequel to the original Night Court sitcom. Lacretta plays Donna “Gurgs” Gurganous, her sharp-witted bailiff.
This incarnation of Night Court returns to NBC for season three on November 19th.
