'Night Court' foi uma comédia popular na NBC por nove temporadas, abrangendo 193 episódios de 4 de janeiro de 1984 a 31 de maio de 1992. O show, estabelecido durante o turno da noite em um tribunal criminal de Manhattan, apresentou o jovem e não convencional, o juiz Harold 'Harry', trazido à vida de Harry Anderson. A mente criativa por trás da série foi Reinhold Weege, conhecida por seu trabalho em 'Barney Miller'. O programa ganhou uma reputação com 31 indicações do Emmy e sete vitórias. Após um hiato, a comédia icônica fez um retorno triunfante em 2023, mais uma vez capturando o coração do público. Vamos revisitar as estrelas de 'Night Court' e descobrir onde estão hoje.
Harry Anderson

Harry Anderson first made his mark on shows like 'Saturday Night Live' and 'Cheers'. He was the heart of 'Night Court', overseeing its shenanigans with a friendly smile. Despite being a fan of Mel Torme, Anderson never saw himself as a serious actor. His career included sporadic film roles and stand-up comedy performances. He even ventured into entrepreneurship, opening his own magic shop and comedy club in New Orleans, which has since shut down. The cherished actor died peacefully in his sleep on April 16, 2018, at the age of 65, due to a stroke caused by influenza and heart disease, per AQUELE .
John Larroquette

John Larroquette, portraying the epitome of a slick lawyer on 'Night Court', gained significant recognition and even won the Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series four consecutive times. After the sitcom, Larroquette has reportedly maintained a steady acting career, primarily in television series such as 'The Librarians', 'Chuck', and 'The Good Fight'. The 75-year-old has returned to his iconic role in the 'Night Court' revival, sharing the screen with Melissa Rauch.
Markie Post

Markie Post, much like Elaine from 'Seinfeld', was a beacon of female strength in the predominantly male comedy, playing the role of a well-intentioned public defender constantly at loggerheads with Larroquette’s crass prosecutor, Dan Fielding. Although Post officially joined the 'Night Court' cast only in its third season, she left an indelible mark on the show. Her TV career also included other roles, such as Bunny Fletcher on 'Chicago PD', and appearances in numerous TV movies. Tragically, the star died from cancer at the age of 70 on April 7, 2021.
Richard Moll

Richard Moll, with his stern yet eccentric portrayal of the bailiff Bull, was often the source of the biggest laughs on 'Night Court'. The actor, who stood tall at 6 feet 8 inches, lent his distinctive gravelly voice to a variety of video games and comic book projects, including 'Batman: The Animated Series', where he voiced Harvey Dent. He also made appearances in horror films such as 'Ghost Shark' (2013) and 'Slay Belles' (2018). The 80-year-old actor died at his home in Big Bear Lake, Calif on October 26, 2023.
Charles Robinson

Charles Robinson, known for his role as the cardigan-clad court clerk Mac Robinson on 'Night Court', was the perfect foil to Judge Stone, delivering deadpan humor at the judge's expense. His career didn't slow down after the sitcom ended. Robinson made appearances in a variety of series over the years, including 'Charmed', 'My Name Is Earl', 'Grey's Anatomy', 'This Is Us', 'Better Things', 'Raven's Home', and 'Love in the Time of Corona'. Robinson died on July 11, 2021 due to cardiac arrest and organ failure. He was 75.

Marsha Warfield, known for her stern yet always straightforward portrayal of bailiff Roz Russell, was a prominent figure on television throughout the '90s. She made appearances in a variety of shows, from 'Empty Nest' and 'Touched by an Angel' to 'Veronica’s Closet'. In 1999, Warfield reportedly decided to step away from screen acting and returned to her roots as a stand-up comedian, touring in Vegas and other locations. However, she made a comeback to television in 2021, taking on the role of Toni Wilson on the show '9-1-1'. It's reported that on May 9, 2023, the 69-year-old reprised her role as Roz Russell in the sequel series of 'Night Court' on NBC.
