I cannot even begin to express how much I love Night Court. All the characters were funny, and the ensemble just worked so well. There were lots of now-famous actors and comedians who made guest appearances on this show so, yeah, it was kind of a big deal. Harry Anderson was like the Matt Smith of judges. He was young, quirky, strange, funny, and wore a bow tie. It was a great show that lasted a while and, sadly, like some others on my list, is no longer in syndication.
80s and 90s TV show honorable mentions: Newhart (I absolutely adored that show too) and The New Scooby Doo Mysteries
Night Court – YESSSSSSS!!! Great show – haven’t thought about that one in a while. The bailiffs cracked me up, and I loved John Laroquette’s character. So slimey!!! 😀
Me too. The cast were so funny together.
