ROZ IS BACK | Night Court S2 | NBC 

A tribute to former cast members would be epic.

@@AveIvy It's always nice when the new cast pays tribute to the old as a sign of respect.

I agree 💯❤

I was gutted when we lost Richard just recently. I was hoping that he would make a cameo on the new show. I'm really pleased with it so far. But now, there's no chance of Richard ever making a cameo like this. I would have loved to hear, "Ooookay!" one last time.

I really wish Bull could have made an appearance before passing away!!

I have not forgotten that. Wonderful.

I remember that episode

@@atworkstation it was a very touching episode.

Wasn't that the one where she was on the roof ledge and dan asked her to hit him?

I was hoping for Dan and Roz to end up together. I guess they are just good friends.

Well Roz wasn't the original bailiff, but I think we get what you mean. The original bailiffs dropped like flies.

That's got to be a one hell of a feeling. Being part of an ensemble cast with most of them gone and wondering when your turn's coming.

​@@theoneandonly6431glad there's only 1 you debbie downer .

@@James_St._James EXACTLY!

Ellen Foley and Karen Austin are still around.

Same..

Oh yea

Yeah. Back then it was raw and gritty and a real audience. Not the laugh track.

yeah, I looked at this and it had all the charm of the original, those moments when you knew there was a real bond.

If I'm not mistaken, another _original_ cast member is still alive.

@@AllRequiredKaren Austin? I mean she left during season 1 though so

Unfortunately, Richard Moll didn't have any interest being part of a new series or reprising his role.

​@@sun_chariot6141 Right. My impression was that there were some hard feelings there.

@@richardwhiskers7834And had Moll reprised his role it would've been the 'Bailiff Curse' all over again.

It makes it more heartbreaking to know these two are like the last of the main cast alive, that were in the most seasons. 😭

Damn. I didn't know he died. I was holding out hope he would show up on the show.

Yeah, I remember, they were both older ladies but both little fireballs

💯

Agreed 👍😊🎉

Yes, it was a good transition but a similar feel.😊 I have to catch up to the latest episode.

It'll never be like it was, today's writer's will never cut Dan loose the way he should be written, people nowadays would blow a gasket.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Markie Post is alive still I believe?

Nevermind.. I just saw she passed in 2021. 😢

Both Bob and June Wheeler are still alive.

Should bring Brent Spiner back

@@markdunham9634 Incredibly so is John Astin, the man who played Harry Stone's father Buddy ("But I'm feeling MUCH better now!"). He turned 94 this year, but has been retired from acting since 2021.

Born in 78 too brother. Grew up on Night Court and Married with Children

Richard Moll. Richard Mulligan was Dr. Harry Weston on "Empty Nest".

@@chriskay1449 I stand corrected!

oh no, lol. bull was scared of Thelma (the first one) too. i just watched an episode where she threatened him and he backed down (season 1 i think) lol

i mean Selma

Night court ended with Roz pushing Dan off the rescue boat.

the best part was his delayed response of her punching him.

I remember that episode

And Mac

When

when they first announced the new show he'd already said he wasn't coming back. apparently he'd had some problems with the crew of the original show or something like that so he had no intention of returning for the new one. besides, even he /had/ wanted to return, they'd have to come up with some convoluted reason for him returning to Earth from Saturn.

@@DOGSNDOLPHINSRAWESOME within the last month or so. Google him

@@ruroken77 Jupiter.

Given his feelings about the show and about Laroquette in particular after the end, it would have been a long shot.

Oh yeah! Totally.

That would be awesome!

Who knows ? He might be up for a laugh.....

That's one of the main reasons why I watched season 1.

They need to bring back my favorite Yugoslavian recidivist knucklehead.

@knightrcer Bull was my mom’s favorite character. She’d let me stay up later than my normal bedtime of 8pm as a little kid to watch it with her.

Same..😢❤

Harry Weston died I guess.

@@dustinolvey8877 You're thinking of Richard Mulligan, who died back in 2000.

Not the original, but the best and longest cast on the show.. Marsha joined the show in it's 4th season. So from 1986 to 1992 the core cast has passed. The show started in 1984.

@@Heartboy1031 Good catch. They are the only two cast members left from when the original show ended.

And the show's creator

Ellen Foley (Billie) is still alive.

Karen Austin too.

Of course the series has a huge guest star pool to choose from if they need a bit of nostalgia. They could get a lot of mileage from guest appearances from Brent Spiner % Annie O'Donnell (Bob and June), William Utay (Phil), Yako Smirnoff (Yakov), Jon Astin (Grandpa Buddy at 93!), and Bumper Robinson (Leon). Other one-time appearance fan favorites like Fran Drescher and Terri Hatcher are probably beyond the show's budget to get, but you never know.

​@@drdave2020 I thought Phil died after a piano fell on him while he was walking 😂 Him and Dan were supposed to grab lunch together and even though Phil had an irrational fear of musical instruments, he still walked by the music shop, where he ultimately met his demise. Unfortunately that led to Dan practically going insane with guilt and developing The Phil Foundation, where I believe he got taken advantage of by Phil's twin brother, who was pretending to be Phil. I could be wrong about the order of events, but I think Dan found out that Phil was not in fact a bum as he portrayed himself out to be, but in fact very wealthy. I forget how Phil managed to become that well off... Back when the show was on Laff TV, I used to watch the show religiously. One of my favorites.

@@christopherporter2459Ah yes. You are correct. Of course, then William Utay could come back as Will. And given the zaniness of Night Court’s past plots, an original Phil returning after faking his death would not be unheard of.

At almost 94 years old, I would imagine he is retired by now!!

@@brianmcdonald6519 probably but it would still be cool

He used to be crazy, but he's much better now.

@@thedorkone1516”Hi Harry!Am I interrupting a psychotic episode? I hate when that happens to me!” Buddy was the best lol.

But I'm feeling much better now. I too would love to see that.

The only two surviving members of the original cast.

​@@erikbunty2016 Roz wasn't in the original cast. She was actually the third baliff. The actresses playing the show's first two baliffs both died.

@@ryanloftis1125 Yes, that is true. Selma Diamond and Florence Halop.

There were also two other actresses before Markie Post who played the public defender, Karen Austin and Ellen Foley, both of whom are still living.

@@erikbunty2016Wow! That’s right! Everyone else is gone. So sad.

As a PI I would hope she would be involved with some of the cases brought before Dan. You know, "wife beats up husband for cheating" sort of situations.

She has said she is willing if asked.

I’m pretty sure the show is following Fielding, no one cares about Abbie Stone. When Fielding goes, so does the show.

She's been a semi regular cast member each season on the show 9-1-1 that moved to ABC. She plays Hen's Mother.

@@cougar24 It's the part she was born to play, baby!

Yes.

He is 94 and who knows where his health is at. Don't know if he is even able to.

I saw an interview piece with him from not that long ago. Seemed very lucid and in great spirits.

To many wokees being offended by EVERYTHING now days. This reboot ain't nearly as edgy as the OG was, it couldn't be it would've been cancelled after the first episode. Funny thing was, the original really wasn't that edgy.

he isnt.

@@jamesdotson4458 Yes he will bc it's already been confirmed that he makes an appearance in the new reboot. Mind you, these episode were already made before he passed away.

@@ejnichols05 Wishful thinking. Richard had already stated he never wanted to be part of the re-boot.

@@dm95422 A person saying something and doing something are two different things. They could've offered him a nice sum after he made that statement, but we shall see.

The Bailiff from the original show from season 4-9. She was amazing.

Actors from earlier seasons are still alive. They're not the last.

Unfortunately, Harry Anderson passed away in 2018

I found a pic of John larroquette either on Google images or Pinterest .he's holding his 2 or 3 Emmy and showing how long his tongue is 🔥

@@dfangirl72 4. He has 4 for Nightcourt, and the reason he has 4 is because he did not want 5.

It's terrible. Don't waste your time

They absolutely should!

It's good, but nowhere near as good as the original.

It’s tonight at 7:30.

This show got a second season and she is only a guest star. SO, you are wrong on all counts.

@@chriskay1449 No. The show was only funny last episode of season 1. This is why Season 2 opens up with Roz and Dan in jail. Those 2 onscreen makes the show funny only. You don't know what you are taking about.

@@rickyclover9393Wrong. The show is plenty funny and she wasn't the reason they renewed it, so you can stop with the "she saved the show" BS. You are blinded by nostalgia and were always going to hate the reboot thus never giving it a real chance.

@@chriskay1449 No. This show is hell of lame and safe. The producers brought in Roz and made Dan a judge because it needed the OGs to steer this ship. The new cast is not funny at all.

@@chriskay1449 Buddy. I sat through 3 episodes of this mess and it was garbage. If it wasn't for the original, this corny sequel series would not exist.

"Yep, it's us again."🤣

Yep

Ellen Foley from Season 2 and Karen Austin from Season 1 are still around.
