Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

dimplet Night Court had some fine episodes, but Danny Got His Gun is not one of them, and it is not three of them, either. The three part series, "Night Court: Danny Got His Gun," trots out every stereotype imaginable and unimaginable, whether applicable to Eskimos, Aleuts, First Nation, Indian, Native American or whatever. This would be OK for a sitcom like Night Court, which is not legally bound by the constraints of reality or good taste, if they were funny. Which they are not. The acting on these three episodes is definitely sub par. John Larroquette seems to be phoning it in. Is this his punishment for asking for a raise: Kill off his character at the end of the season, then resurrect him if he capitulates, and make him act in a gawdawful script? So, in the end, he's alive and attends his own funeral, a cliché ever since Mark Twain invented the joke long before the invention of television. But the writers don't do anything clever or funny with this device.Dan Fielding meets a beautiful "Eskimo" in the frozen Arctic whose dream is to visit The Big Apple. Does Fielding bring her back with him? No, he does not. Now this would have been interesting, and potentially very funny. Heck, an Eskimo girlfriend in NYC could have had long running humor possibilities. But it would have required genuine creativity, something the series seemed to be running out of, rather than relying on cheap one-liners, like a cameo bikini bottom.Instead, what he does return to New York with is a seal, who has a crush on him. 6/10 for the series. This ain't MASH, but there are plenty of good to excellent episodes.The first two seasons are especially interesting for Selma Diamond, whose history goes way, way back, including writing for Sid Caesar's Caesar's Hour, but also radio and New Yorker cartoons before that! You need to read the Wikipedia entry to get it all, including that she was the inspiration for the Sally Rogers character on the Dick Van Dyke Show. And perhaps a character on The Simpsons named Selma? Or perhaps two characters: Patty and Selma Bouvier?. Look at the season one ender, Honey, I'm Home, and say Selma Diamond isn't The Simpson's Selma. Florence Halop did an amazing job of filling Selma's shoes when she died, at least until Florence died, both of lung cancer. The producers made a wise choice in Marsha Warfield to replace Florence. She is the female bailiff most viewers remember now.Of course, Night Court wouldn't have been anything without Harry Laverne Anderson.

nomoons11 this show was funnier. I'm quite amazed that they've only released 1 season of this show on DVD in its 8 year run. You younger users out there are really missing out on a fantastic 80's sitcom. If Dan Fielding isn't the Kramer of the 80's, I don't know who else coulda been . John Larroquette was just a comedy master.This show had an excellent example of what they call, and "ensemble cast". Everyone had a role and they played it perfect. They held their own alongside Cheers for 8 yrs and left w1 year before Cheers did with just as good ratings but it seems, Night Court has fallen off the DVD Release planet. Where are you NBC? Get off your butts and get us more seasons of this show to buy. You remember ratings right?

fearfulofspiders With great humor, hilarious characters, convincing stories and drama, Night Court is the show I recommend to anyone who likes situation comedies, and characters the audience can relate to.From the cameos to some of the darker subject-matter, there's no denying that this is a great show. The acting is terrific all around; the main title music is catchy; the stories are involving and genius, making it well worth your time.All in all, I highly recommend this show. It's innocent and funny. See this where ever you can, which as recently, for citizens of the United States, it airs in the morning on TV Land.

bshanjra I agree with Thor2000's comments regarding this series, but I think it went beyond Markie's outstanding figure (you can keep your skinny supermodel types! Markie was va-va-va-VOOMPH!). It was cleverly written, and the cast's sense of timing was uncanny. Everything just clicked and fell into place to deliver the laughs. I think the writers had just exhausted all ideas (a writer's strike during that period didn't exactly help matters, either!) towards the end, and I felt they should have ended it one season earlier, when Harry and Christine were in love and Dan was loony-baloney! While all the actors were outstanding in every way, it was Dan Fielding who stood out as the letch who everyone loved to hate! I personally feel the Selma Diamond season was the funniest, but not by much, since the other seasons had me programming the VCR to record it for posterity. I still own the videos and watch them once in a while. I wish they would bring the remaining seasons to DVD, so I could own them!
