Will ‘Night Court’ Return For Season 2 on NBC?

NBC’s Night Court revival was one of the surprise hits of the year. Debuting in January of 2023, the followup to the popular ’80s sitcom stars Melissa Rauch as Abby Stone, the daughter of the late Harry Stone (portrayed by the great Harry Anderson) who takes over as the new judge of night court. Also starring India de Beaufort, Kapil Talwalkar, Lacretta, and John Larroquette reprising his role as Dan Fielding, the multi-cam series earned critical acclaim, boasting an impressive 73% Tomatometer score on Rotten Tomatoes.

The season finale of Night Court airs tonight on NBC. If you need to catch up on previous episodes, the show is available to stream on Peacock and NBC.com/the NBC app. But what about Season 2? Will court be back in session for a second season of comedy chaos? Great question. Here’s the latest on Season 2 of Night Court.
