This new incarnation of Night Court started off with very good ratings but the numbers have dropped quite a bit since then. Still, NBC has very few other sitcoms. Will the numbers improve? Will Night Court be cancelled or renewed for season four? Stay tuned.

A workplace comedy series, the Night Court TV show stars Melissa Rauch, Lacretta, Wendie Malick, Nyambi Nyambi, and John Larroquette. The new story follows Abracadabra “Abby” Stone (Rauch), a judge following in the footsteps of her revered late father, Judge Harry Stone (Harry Anderson). She takes on the challenge of overseeing the night shift of a Manhattan arraignment court, just as he did. To bring order and dignity to the court, she enlists former night court district attorney Dan Fielding (Larroquette) to serve as the court’s public defender. Others on the court team...

“Night Court” is back with another season full of unusual crimes and comedy.

Season 3 picks up after the dramatic cliffhanger in the Season 2 finale, which left Abby (Melissa Rauch) with the realization that Dan (John Larroquette) might be the biological father of Abby’s boyfriend, Jake (Ryan Hansen).

The new installment also sees Wendie Malick bumped up to a series regular, joining Rauch, Larroquette, Lacretta and Nyambi after India de Beaufort’s departed from the series after Season 2.

[Warning: The following contains Major spoilers for Night Court Season 3 Episode 1, “The Judge’s Boyfriend’s Dad.”] The truth has a funny way of coming out. After Abby (Melissa Rauch) spent the entire Night Court Season 3 premiere trying to shield Dan Fielding (John Larroquette) and new boyfriend Jake (Ryan Hansen) from catching wind of the possibility that they could be father and son, the episode ended with them finding out anyway. The premiere kicked off with Abby having a nightmare about Dan and Jake finding out this secret and responding with anger, leaving her panicked when she woke up. Abby visited Ryan’s mother, Susan (Julia Duffy), in the hospital to get answers about the identity of Jake’s father, but the drugged-up Susan could provide little answers. Jake’s mannerisms started to slightly mimic Dan’s, making Abby even more worried. Dan, meanwhile, was none the wiser as he was busy dealing with the new courtroom prosecutor,...

Note: The following story contains spoilers from “Night Court” Season 3, Episode 1.

“Night Court” kicked off Season 3 with an expansion of the parenting mystery set up in the Season 2 finale, which star and EP Melissa Rauch said presents a “major bump in the road” for Abby and Jake’s budding romance.

After leaving off with the unsettling realization that Dan (John Larroquette) might be the biological father of her boyfriend, Jake (Ryan Hansen), Abby (Rauch) goes on a mission to discover the truth — and the stakes are heightened when she realizes Jake’s mom (Julia Duffy) might’ve also dated her father.

“As we were working toward the season finale last year, we knew we wanted to go out on something that would be a story generator that would propel us into Season 3,” Rauch told TheWrap. “[Ryan Hansen] was just supposed to come in for one episode last season playing our Hr rep...

A few years ago, John Larroquette wasn’t eager to reprise his four-time Emmy-winning role of Dan Fielding in NBC‘s Night Court revival. A year’s worth of back and forth with costar Melissa Rauch (who was just an executive producer at the time) made him decide to take it on, but there was another key reason motivating his eventual yes. “I have a caricature that [Al] Hirschfeld made of Night Court in ’86 or ’87. I look at that, and everybody in that caricature has passed away except me,” he tells TV Insider ahead of the revival’s Season 3 premiere. The opportunity to honor the memory of his late costars is what sealed the deal. “When I first was approached with this idea, I didn’t like the idea at all,” Larroquette admits. “And only because I thought egotistically, I don’t want to be compared to myself when I was 34 years old.

Disorder in the court! Premiering Tuesday, November 19, Night Court Season 3 kicks off by quickly addressing the Season 2 finale cliffhanger, which teased that Judge Abby Stone’s (Melissa Rauch) new man, Hr rep Jake (Ryan Hansen), could be defense attorney Dan Fielding’s (John Larroquette) son. In the premiere, Abby visits Jake’s mom, Susan (Newhart’s Julia Duffy), in the hospital to get answers about the paternity mystery, which will be resolved in the first two episodes. The Abby of seasons past would have loved this close connection to her colleague Dan, whom she already feels bonded to through her late father, Judge Harry Stone. But now, dating Dan’s potential son is a psychological nightmare for the eternally optimistic judge. “It’s twofold for Abby, if he is in fact Dan’s son,” Rauch explains. “Because this father-daughter relationship between Abby and Dan [already exists], so does that make Jake surrogate...

It’s a big night for NBC tonight, Tuesday, Nov. 12. There’s a new show debuting. Take a look at everything you can watch on TV tonight.

For NBC, it’s all about St. Denis Medical. You may groan at the idea of another medical show right now, but this one is a comedy. Sometimes we need just a little bit of laughter in the face of medical trauma, and that’s what we get with this one. Alex is a devoted nurse with a promotion in the Ed with a team who is severely underfunded and overworked.

There are two episodes tonight, but starting next week, there will only be one. Night Court returns!

High Potential fall finale, Accused returns, and more

Over on ABC, we get a night of Dancing with the Stars and High Potential. This is a big High Potential episode as it’s the fall finale.

NBC’s long-running hit sitcom Night Court revolved around the idiosyncratic cases argued in its titular location, and the lovable weirdos who worked there — none weirder than youthful judge Harry Stone (Harry Anderson), who never let his work on the bench interfere with his true passion: close-up magic.

The sequel series, which premiered last year, doesn’t stray too far from the original. Once again, the presiding Night Court judge is young, quirky and optimistic about most people she meets. She’s also a Judge Stone — Judge Abby Stone (Melissa Rauch), Harry’s daughter. She’s exactly the kind of judge who would eagerly sign up for a program called Operation Second Chance, which hires formerly incarcerated people. And since original prosecutor Olivia Moore (India de Beaufort) has departed since the Season Two finale, Abby’s decided to fill the vacancy with Julianne, whose record for (among other crimes) arson has recently been expunged.

On Tuesday, 19 November 2024, at 8:30 Pm, Night Court returns for Season 3 with an intriguing episode titled The Judge’s Boyfriend’s Dad. The episode kicks off with Abby suspecting that Dan might be the father of her boyfriend, and she decides to do some investigating to uncover the truth. As she digs deeper into the mystery, the story takes an unexpected turn when a blast from Dan’s past resurfaces as the court’s new prosecutor. This new development complicates things further, adding an extra layer of drama to the already tense situation.

As always, Night Court delivers its signature blend of humor and heart, with characters navigating personal and professional challenges in a fast-paced, comedic environment. Abby’s investigation into Dan’s potential family ties promises to bring a fresh dynamic to the courtroom, while the return of a character from Dan’s past will add more excitement to the episode.

Tony Todd, the actor known for his roles in Candyman, Final Destination, and more, has died at the age of 69.

According to reps for Todd, the actor passed away on November 6th at his home in Los Angeles following a long illness. No official cause of death has been reported at this time.

Born in 1954 in Washington, DC, Todd began his acting career on the stage, studying theater at University of Connecticut before joining celebrated theatrical companies like the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center and the Trinity Repertory Company. In the ‘80s, he began landing on-screen roles, with his first major part being in Oliver Stone’s Best Picture winner, Platoon.

From there, Todd built a prolific filmography across film and television, appearing in shows like 21 Jump Street, Night Court, MacGyver, Matlock, Star Trek: The Next Generation, and more, as well as movies like the 1990 remake of Night of the Living Dead.

The horror community is in mourning after the loss of a true icon of the genre.

Tony Todd, known for his distinctive voice and chilling performance as Candyman in addition to numerous other roles, has sadly passed away at the age of 69. The actor reportedly died on November 6 at his home in Los Angeles after a long illness.

Todd made his film debut in 1986’s Sleepwalk, beginning a career that spanned more than 200 film and TV credits. His most famous role is the eponymous hook-handed killer in the Candyman movies, but he's also appeared in the likes of Final Destination, the '90s Night of the Living Dead remake, The Crow, Hatchet, Frankenstein and Hell Fest.

His none horror projects include The Rock, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Voyager, 21 Jump Street, Night Court, MacGyver, Matlock, Jake and the Fatman, Law & Order,...

I have very sad news to report tonight. It has been announced that Tony Todd has died at the age of 69. The legendary actor is best known for his roles in Candyman, Final Destination, Platoon, The Crow, Night of the Living Dead, and his many appearances in the Star Trek franchise. He was a massively talented actor whose incredible baritone voice made every project so much better. This is a huge blow.

Todd’s wife, Fatima, told THR that he died on Wednesday at his home in Marina del Rey after a long illness. New Line Cinema, the studio which produces the Final Destination franchise, wrote on Instagram: “The industry has lost a legend. We have lost a cherished friend. Rest in peace, Tony, -Your Final Destination Family.“

After studying theater at the Eugene O’Neill National Actors Theatre Institute, Todd made the leap to the silver screen, making...

Night Court will continue its revolving door policy with guest stars in Season 3, premiering November 19 on NBC. TV Insider can exclusively reveal the guest stars for the first 12 episodes of the third season. The list includes Girls alum Andrew Rannells, a Hot in Cleveland reunion for Wendie Malick and Gilles Marini, The Middle‘s Eden Sher, Brooklyn Nine-Nine‘s Joe Lo Truglio, Superstore‘s Nico Santos, Kate Flannery from The Office, and the return of Night Court original characters the Wheelers, played by Star Trek‘s Brent Spiner and Annie O’Donnell. Marsha Warfield will be back as Roz, who got married in the Season 2 finale. Jessica St. Clair will also return. As previously announced, The Big Bang Theory stars Rauch and Mayim Bialik will reunite later in the season when Bialik appears as a version of herself. Ryan Hansen and Julia Duffy are the first guest stars of the new season.

Since ABC’s hit series “Scrubs” wrapped its nine-season run in 2010, Hollywood has mostly shied away from comedies set in hospitals — at times a tough place to find laughs — though there have been outliers like Fox and Hulu’s “The Mindy Project,” Warner Bros. and Adult Swim’s absurdist “Childrens Hospital” and HBO’s critically acclaimed “Getting On.”

NBC is the latest to attempt it with “St. Denis Medical,” a new sitcom that blends this challenging setting with a popular format: mockumentary. Can Hollywood find comedy inside a hospital in 2024, especially from a show that focuses on hospital workers’ everyday lives and following a global pandemic?

To try to find out, TheWrap did an exclusive set visit in the last week of filming for the show’s 18-episode first season, which is set to premiere on Nov. 12. TheWrap spoke with the “St. Denis Medical” cast and creators about crafting the comedy series.

Fans of “The Big Bang Theory” and “Blossom” are in for a treat during Mayim Bialik’s upcoming “Night Court” guest star spot, which Melissa Rauch teases includes “many” Easter eggs for both shows.

“People can expect to see many ‘Big Bang’ Easter eggs, both ‘Big Bang’ Easter eggs and ‘Blossom’ Easter eggs throughout the episode,” Rauch told TheWrap of the Season 3 episode.

The sitcom will serve as an on-screen reunion for Rauch and Bialik after last starring together on “The Big Bang Theory,” with Rauch saying, “We have, of course, kept in touch since ‘Big Bang,’ although we haven’t been on set together since our season finale.” Bialik will also reunite with John Larroquette after she appeared on “The John Larroquette Show” in the ’90s.

In the upcoming episode, Bialik will play what Rauch calls a “bizarro version of Mayim” as the former takes the stand as a night court defendant.

The Big Bang Theory can easily be a fan favorite with its sarcasm-filled and science-infused storylines. The beloved sitcom ruled the CBS screens from 2007 to 2019 and focused on four socially awkward scientists and their quirky neighbor Penny. The fans of the sitcom know almost everything about their favorite stars. However, their height has always been a point of discussion amongst the viewers.

While Jim Parsons, as part of the main cast, can easily give others a height complex, there are other characters who are even taller than he is. Let’s take a closer look at the cast of the show and assess each character’s height, from the shortest to the tallest.

Melissa Rauch entered the show in its third season and quickly became a fan favorite with her portrayal of Bernadette.

It’s spooky season — and Night Court’s Dan Fielding is certainly spooked by what he sees standing across from him in the courtroom.

Sitcom great Wendie Malick joins the cast of NBC’s courtroom comedy in Season 3 after a pair of guest appearances as Dan’s vengeful ex Julianne — and now she’s the court’s new prosecutor, so she and Dan will be working together every day. TVLine has an exclusive sneak peek at the first Season 3 promo (which you can watch above), with Dan yelping and cowering in fear when he sees Julianne return. “You’re out of prison!

Get ready for a Big Bang Theory reunion on Night Court! See who Mayim Bialik is playing on the NBC sitcom!

Fans of Night Court are already used to the comedic styling of star Melissa Rauch thanks to her years on The Big Bang Theory. While she wasn't part of the original cast, Rauch soon connected with fans as Bernadette, showing fantastic comedic chops and a great style. She rose up with a marriage to Howard as well as raising a family.

She was a good contrast to Mayim Bialik as the former Blossom star was also notable on the series as Amy, Sheldon's future wife. After Tbbt ended, Rauch moved on to Night Court, a sequel series to the 1984-1992 NBC sitcom. She plays Abby Stone, daughter of Judge Harry Stone (the late Harry Anderson), who now presides over the same Manhattan courthouse that sees a flood of weirdos.

Mayim Bialik is the next Big Bang Theory guest star who will appear on Night Court with Melissa Rauch. The former Jeopardy! host will play a version of herself in an episode of Season 3 of the NBC sitcom, which will also mark a reunion for Bialik and John Larroquette, who played father and daughter on The John Larroquette Show. Blossom will also be referenced in the episode. Night Court Season 3 premieres Tuesday, November 19th at 8:30/7:30c on NBC, with episodes available for next-day streaming on Peacock. The air date for Bialik’s cameo has not been announced, but it’s currently in the production process. NBC says that Bialik plays a defendant, and Rauch’s character, Judge Abby Stone, is thrilled to meet her as a fan of the 1990s sitcom Blossom.

Fans of The Big Bang Theory can expect a mini-reunion on the horizon. Actress Mayim Bialik is set to appear on Night Court, which stars her former Big Bang co-star Melissa Rauch. The actress and former Jeopardy! host has even given fans a few hints on what to expect from the upcoming reunion.

Amy & Bernadette Will Be Back Together Again On Night Court

Night Court is a 2023 revival of the series of the same name. In the series, Rauch plays Judge Abby Stone, who comes to New York City to work for the Manhattan Criminal Court’s night shift. Rauch’s character takes on the position once filled by her late father, Harry Stone, a main character in the original show, played by the late Harry Anderson.

Before joining the revival, however, Rauch became known to audiences as Bernadette on The Big Bang Theory. On the series, she often famously...

Mayim Bialik is reuniting with two of her former co-stars as she guest stars in an episode of Night Court.

Bialik will join her Big Bang Theory co-star Melissa Rauch, as well as John Larroquette, who she starred alongside in The John Larroquette Show in an upcoming episode of the NBC sitcom.

In the episode, Bialik plays a defendant, a heightened version of herself, apparently, and Rauch’s character, Judge Abby Stone, is thrilled to meet her as a fan of the 1990s sitcom Blossom. However, the situation takes a turn when Abby discovers Bialik is actually stalking her.

It is the latest Big Bang reunion on the show after Kunal Nayyar appeared as a guest star on an episode earlier this year.

Larroquette played Bialik’s father in three episodes of NBC’s early 90s sitcom The John Larroquette Show.

Night Court returns for its third season on Tuesday...

We’re getting a mini Big Bang Theory reunion!

It has been announced that Mayim Bialik will be making a special guest appearance on season three of her former co-star Melissa Rauch‘s NBC sitcom Night Court.

Order in the courtroom! Night Court returns for Season 3 on Tuesday, November 19, and with it comes Wendie Malick as a new series regular in the quirky sitcom. Photos from the Night Court Season 3 premiere show Malick’s Julianne Walters getting cozy in Judge Abby Stone’s (Melissa Rauch) office, and accompanying the women are John Larroquette‘s Dan Fielding and Ryan Hansen in his returning guest star role as Jake, the Hr rep with whom Abby shared a kiss in Season 2. The photos also reveal that Julia Duffy will return as Susan in the first episode, reprising her role from the Season 2 finale (she was one of the many guest stars at Roz’s courtroom wedding). Duffy and Rauch are pictured above. In the image, Abby is visiting Susan in a hospital room, flowers in hand. Below, Malick is looking mischievous in Abby’s office and Dan looks none too pleased.

The Big Bang Theory can easily be one of the most sought after shows on the CBS network. Even after its 12 seasons run, fans wanted more from the show. Apart from the quirky humor and the not-so-easy to understand science jargons, the sitcom also boasted a stunning ensemble. And this massive popularity also brought in some of the highest paychecks in television history.

Initially the cast featured the likes of Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki, Kaley Cuoco, Simon Helberg and Kunal Nayyar. While these guys were the Og members, soon Mayim Bialik and Melissa Rauch also joined the show as a series regular.

Michael Grassi’s medical drama has attracted 9.2M cross-platform viewers to its premiere episode since the September 23 debut, NBCUniversal says. That’s up 138% from the live same-day audience of 3.9M.

The audience declined slightly for Episode 2, attracting 3.5M live same-day viewers on Monday night, though that still was good enough to make it the top scripted show of the night across the broadcasters.

Actually, in the 18-49 demo, Brilliant Minds has seen the smallest Week 2 decline among the last five NBC drama debuts.

Brilliant Minds also had the third best debut for any NBC show on Peacock, coming in behind Found and Night Court — two shows that have demonstrated strong staying power since they premiered.

Exclusive: Writer Nell Scovell (Sabrina the Teenage Witch) and former NBCUniversal content chief Susan Rovner are developing the new series The Fishbowl with CBS Studios for CBS, sources tell Deadline.

The drama is a procedural about a brilliant medical examiner overseeing a private room at the Manhattan morgue that investigates New York City’s weirdest deaths, we hear.

Scovell created the series and will executive produce with Susan Rovner through her newly minted Aha Studios banner. CBS Studios is producing.

The Fishbowl marks Scovell’s second procedural pilot for CBS. The first, Without a Clue, starred Gary Cole, Busy Phillips and Marisa Coughlan, but did not move forward to series. She also worked as a consulting producer on NCIS. Scovell is a WGA-nominated writer who is best known as the creator and showrunner of ABC’s Sabrina the Teenage Witch and has written for David Letterman, The Simpsons, Charmed and The Muppets.

Nico Santos is headed to “St. Denis Medical” and “Night Court” Season 3.

The “Crazy Rich Asians” star will reunite with “Superstore” team Justin Spitzer and Eric Ledgin as well as stars Kaliko Kauahi and Josh Lawson as he takes on a guest starring role in NBC’s upcoming medical mockumentary.

Santos will guest star in “St. Denis Medical” as Rene, “a veteran Rn, and leader of a clique of nurses that give off a ‘Mean Girls’ vibe — which makes Rene the ‘Regina George’ of St. Denis,” according to his official character description. It that “his intimidating demeanor” will present a challenge for Allison Tolman’s Alex, who is the head nurse.
