If youre curious about it, dont let the pilot throw you off, at least; check back in a few episodes later, once the show has actually hit its (often p ..

For a show that none of us asked for, thats about as good as it gets.

And there are chuckles, though the show reaches too often for wackiness, usually mixing Grugs into the action and making her spit out punchlines.

Dan doesnt date, let alone chase skirts, making his upper middle class white guy (as a prospective companion calls him) much more inviting than the ho ..

This Night Court is guilty of not being funny or entertaining. And unlike Abby, I cant find an optimistic spin.

I cant imagine anyone who isnt a Boomer or Gen X embracing this series when theres so much more sophisticated single camera comedy out there to enjoy.

Over time Night Court finds its footing, fleshing out its characters and developing a more successful, funnier rhythm that pays homage to its predeces ..

Joel Keller (@joelkeller) writes about food, entertainment, parenting and tech, but he doesnt kid himself: hes a TV junkie.

Its a specific genre that doesnt get the credit it deserves for providing accessible and enjoyable entertainment.

But Ive only seen the first six episodes, and going character first isnt a bad plan.

Here, it feels more like a throwback, and while theres plenty of nostalgia value in it, Im not sure what viewers new to the sitcom might think.

satisfying show... successfully realizes the essence, the rhythms, the gentle humor, the gestalt, the Weltanschauung of a 1980s sitcom.

It also wisely keeps the lite jazz opening theme, a top tier sitcom overture.)

Generating initial curiosity, though, isnt the same as sustaining interest, and this is one of those efforts to cash in on a familiar title to be file ..

If youre a fan of the original Night Court, theres enough of it left in this one to make it worth at least a nostalgia watch.

While still silly, the show has a persistent vein of melancholy that it cant suppress.

The verdict is in: Night Court has the heart of the original series and a bright future ahead.

Rauch and Larroquette evince great chemistry and the new characters show promise, but much of the writing seems stuck in the 90s.

Of the new cast members, Lacretta (as bailiff Donna Gurgs Gurganous) has the best shot at helping recall the past. Shes a good comedian who knows wher ..
