Night Court is back after 30 years.

I watched the pilot, and it was…OK. But it has potential. I’ll give it a few more episodes.

Painfully unfunny. No chemistry between any of the cast. Feels at times like it was written by a chatbot.

Richard Moll did not have the best time on Night Court as he didn't get along with Harry Anderson or John Laroquette. I don't think you could drag him to the new show with wild horses.

My understanding is that he also disliked shaving his head.

2nd episod was slightly better. We’ll see if the 3rd is the charm.

I just did some googling on this - didn't realise 3 of the longtime cast members passed away - Charlie Robinson, Harry Anderson and Markie Post. It feels they should have done a revival 10 years earlier.

It's very retro. Feels much more like an 80s or 90s sitcom than a present day one. And I don't think it's just because they did a good job of reproducing the sets from the original show. It's more about the staging and the jokes.

My kid enjoyed it, which is high approval as far as I'm concerned. Anything that cracks through the usual teenage "whatever" aura can't be all bad. After watching the first two episodes their criticism was that they needed to do more court cases and less of the "other stuff" because the court cases were the funniest bits. Can't disagree with them really - the cast hasn't gelled yet, so the absurd stuff is the fun stuff. I'd like to see the cases get wackier tho - they feel like they're playing it a little safe so far and not dipping into the truly absurd.

Seriously? I had no idea!

The 3rd episode is a lot funnier in my opinion.
"The defendant is charged with a D&D D&D. A drunk and disorderly while playing Dungeons and Dragons."

"I learned nerd for this."
