I recorded/watched it. It's fine.
The secret sauce of Night Court was probably 3 things: 1. It had bite to its humour, 2. It was genuinely sincere, & 3. It danced sexual innuendo from both sides perfectly.
This 2023 one is lacking innuendo, & I'm not surprised by that. Still, 25 mins of its updated vision is fine. They did manage a couple physical/sight gags which landed nicely.

So I actually never seen the original Night Court. It was kinda before my time, and I don’t remember ever catching it in syndication. I did watch the premiere of the revival. I thought it was pretty decent. I love a good throwback multi-cam sitcom. John Larroquette and Melissa Raunch were strong in their roles. I’ll likely watch more. I’d also like to go back and watch the original series. Does anybody know if it’s steaming anywhere?

I've not seen it yet. Need to check my listings.

I feel like this thing could even have legs without Dan Fielding as regular. If they want to nail the comedy, to full Spin City style vigor. |

Thanks for reminding me to DVR it. Worth a try.

I've been watching it. I watched the original series a few years ago and occasionally watch an episode here and there like I do with M*A*S*H. While the original is still definitely better, I feel this new series is a decent revival.

"How many women have you slept with?"
Dan Fielding: "You know that sign over the Golden Arches "10 billion served.'?"
"Yeah."
"Well, let's just say I'm competitive."
