The Night Court revival brings the show back with some notable changes that delivers surprises and a fresh feel. Running for nine seasons from 1984 to 1992, the original Night Court was part of the now-legendary NBC Thursday Night Must See TV line-up. The revival show looked to capture some of that nostalgia, but it made clear it was going to be an entirely different series than the original. This is due to most of the original cast not being involved in the revival, and the one returning character being problematic by modern standards. However, this doesn't necessarily mean that the new show won't share the original series' DNA.
