Night Court Season 3: Get Ready for More Courtroom Chaos!
Night Court's Hilarious Return: What We Know About Season 3
NBC's Night Court reboot is back, baby! After two super successful seasons, Melissa Rauch (Judge Abby Stone) and the gang are returning for another round of courtroom craziness in season 3. This revival, keeping that classic 80s sitcom's zany energy, follows Abby (the daughter of the original show's Judge Harry Stone). She runs the Manhattan night court, with her own quirky bunch.
Season 1 got mostly good reviews (Rotten Tomatoes agrees!); NBC saw huge success so it got a quick renewal for season 2. The 2023 Hollywood strikes pushed the release back from Fall 2023 to early 2024. It is worth remembering that context; however the popularity didn't end, so the renewal for season 3 is no surprise. Even with various disruptions and challenges surrounding the series itself and this series continued production and delays; these ultimately produced an incredibly fun season finale and created continued expectation and hope from the entire cast.
