Night Court

Even when the series was starting, it still had the core of what made this sit-com funny...honesty. The story is of a night court where oddballs populate the bureaucratic justice system. What unfolds are some really silly situations (sit-com?) since it takes place in New York, there are a never ending turnstile of strange folk that can stream through. A genius move. The cast is brilliant. Kudos to John Laroquette for still remaining funny even decades after (a lot of jokes I didn't get until much later in life). And, as a hot-blooded American...thank you for the addition of Markie Post. If you've ever been to a courthouse, it really nails the atmosphere of the government institutionalized decor. A wonderful series to watch in re-runs.
