Following its 1984 debut, "Night Court" would become one of the decade's most popular sitcoms, running for nine seasons and serving as a cornerstone of NBC's iconic "Must See TV" Thursday night lineup before closing out its run in the early '90s.
Set in a fictional New York City courtroom run by the amiable Judge Harry T. Stone, the series followed the quirky cases and personal lives of the oddball characters who worked them. Beloved for its offbeat tone and sharp comedic wit, it boasted a roster of talented stars that brought them to life, including Harry Anderson, Markie Post, and Richard Moll.
In 2023, "Night Court" returned for a new generation, with a mostly-new cast led by former series star John Larroquette and actress Melissa Rauch. The series was an immediate hit, quickly renewed for a second season, and between the two shows, the franchise has established a wide breadth of talented sitcom stars from two separate eras.
But, wherever you find a talented actor, you can find at least one project from their past that didn't work out as hoped. Some "Night Court" stars have appeared in TV shows and movies that have been critically panned or flopped hard at the box office. So, which ones might they look back on with regret? All rise, this is a list of roles from the cast of "Night Court" that they'd rather have dismissed.
