How Did the Original ‘Night Court’ End?

Have you ever felt under-appreciated?  It happens to all of us, so we can certainly recognize when it happens to one of our favorite TV shows – especially a classic, like the original series of Night Court. While never a ratings leader, Night Court maintained a strong enough audience to keep it in the primetime lineup for a total of nine seasons — but the show’s journey wasn’t exactly a smooth one.

With NBC’s newer, Melissa Rauch-led version of the show bringing us a season (and possible series) finale tonight, it’s a great time to explore how (and why) the original Night Court finally came to an end.
