Younger viewers of the current Night Court series may not realize that it is based on the original Night Court that ran on NBC from 1984 to 1992. It starred Harry Anderson as Judge Harry T. Stone and featured a hilarious cast and odd cases. The newer series stars Melissa Rauch as Judge Abby Stone, the daughter of Judge Harry T. Stone, and there are many nods to the original series and characters. Which begs the question, where is the original cast now? Sadly, many of them have since passed away.
