Honorable Judge Harry T. Stone is a young, hip, jeans-wearing liberal eccentric presiding over the night shift of a Manhattan courtroom -- which means his views on various cases aren't always normal, nor are his judgments. Helping him manage the chaos is not-so-bright yet softhearted courtroom guard Bull and egotistical prosecutor Dan Fielding. Also part of Stone's crew are passionate public defender Christine Sullivan and calm court clerk Mac, who joined the show in its third and second seasons, respectively.

dave d @RT34924333 Jul 13 It's the kind of stand alone show that if you like it you love it and if you don't you're not watching by now. See more 09/07/2020 Comedy is in session as Night Court is held over for a fourth season. This season Harry gets a letter from his long lost mother, Dan saves Christine's life, Christine gets engaged, Bull attempts to write a children's book, and Mac becomes a father. Additionally, the show delivers a couple of holiday specials for Halloween and New Year's. Unfortunately the curse of the bailiffs continues as Florence Halop passes and is replaced by Marsha Warfield. Yet the docket of guest stars is as strong as ever, featuring Fran Drescher, Michael Gross, John Astin, Estelle Harris, Brent Spiner, Timothy Stack, and Sela Ward. An incredible resilient show, Night Court has overcome setback after setback and comes out stronger than ever in Season 4. See more Read all reviews
