Juzgado de guardia

I wanted so badly to like the show, and I have stuck through it into the second season simply because John Larroquette has. It has departed so far from what the original was supposed to be. The jokes are terrible. The majority of the characters are unlikable. The cuteness that Melissa Rauch had on big bang is just annoying now. I will probably finish out this season for John, but unless there are major improvements in the remaining episodes, I'm giving up on it, and I think everyone else should too. It's clear now that this show never should have happened. The charisma and talent of the original cast is what it made so special. None of that is present here.

This show has the potential, and the cast, that could work into successful series. BUT the very fake canned laughter absolutely ruins the show and makes it hard to watch. The producers should have faith in the cast to make it a show to watch. Too bad. Also, I'm not sure having the judge be the daughter of the previous judge is helpful in any way.

John Larroquette alone would make it worth watching and I'm wishing that it could become a more wry and sophisticated comedy although it's pretty hard to recover from such a faulty start.

Welcome back to TV John Larroquette, but hopefully someone will find something for you worthy of your talent!

Now i love the original 1984-92 night court, it was funny, hilarious and had a lot of style, this one however despite the comeback of john larroquette is truly banal and all over the map, melissa raunch who was hilarious in the big bang theory is wasted here is abby stone, the daughter of judge harry t stone and the rest of the cast is lost too, there's no brent spiner, no marsha warfield, no richard moll, none of that, the teleplay is real boring, the dialogue is ridiculous and what is a laugh track doing in this predicable mess, i know there a few good moments here and there, but this is just a bore, this is a very poor and boring intimidation of the original, rent the original night court instead.

I'm giving it a c-

thumbs down for me on the new version of night court.

I liked the original Night Court pretty well and I am a huge fan of The Big Bang Theory, so I'm willing to give this a chance. However, so much depends on the writers, and these writers really really need a lot of help. I barely made it through episode one, but I will give the next one or two a try. I really wish Internet Movie Database would stop requiring a certain number of characters in a review. I like to be succinct but they are requiring me to be overly loquacious. Even with all this I can't come up with enough words! Gives this show a chance, you might like it. Then again maybe you won't.

Outside of Rauch and Larroquette, the casting is just terrible. Most of them overact nearly every line. Then again, it could be the writers. But then again, poor writing would not account for terrible acting in every episode, and all the time. Or at least, that was my initial thought.

As the season goes on, the writing becomes worse. They try to get cheap laughs but the genuine funny is few and far between. And having the lame laugh track audible for every flat joke, makes the bad jokes stand out.

If it were not for Melissa Rauch and John Larroquette, I would wish that this show be one and done.
