Night Court, then and now

In 1984, one of the unlikeliest of places — a downtown municipal night court for petty crimes — became the setting for a TV show, and it turned into a hit. The irreverent sitcom Night Court ran for nine seasons on NBC, starting as a midseason replacement right after Cheers, and culminating with its final episode on May 31, 1992. Ahead, find out what the cast has been up to in the decades since.

Harry Anderson, who got his start as a comedian and magician on Saturday Night Live and Cheers, presided over the antics of Night Court with a good-natured grin. The Mel Tormé-loving trickster never considered himself much of an actor. Aside from the occasional film role or appearance as a stand-up comedian, Anderson tried his hand at opening a magic shop and comedy club of his own in New Orleans (since closed). The beloved actor died in his sleep on April 16, 2018, from a stroke due to influenza and heart disease at the age of 65.

Playing the quintessential smarmy lawyer, John Larroquette's role on Night Court really put him on the map — and won him an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series four times in a row. Since, the actor has continued to work consistently, mainly on TV shows such as The Librarians, Chuck, and The Good Fight. He is set to star in a Night Court sequel alongside Melissa Rauch for NBC, which will premiere in the 2022–23 TV season.

Markie Post (Christine Sullivan)

In the tradition of Elaine on Seinfeld, Markie Post held it down in this male-dominated comedy as the well-meaning female public defender who was eternally at odds with Larroquette's tasteless prosecutor Dan Fielding. Post, who made a mark on Night Court even though she only officially joined the series in its third season, enjoyed other stints on television such as a recurring role as Bunny Fletcher on Chicago P.D., as well as various TV movies. Post died at the age of 70 on April 7, 2021, after battling cancer.

As the staunch but quirky bailiff Bull, Richard Moll regularly earned some of the biggest laughs on Night Court. The towering actor — he stands at 6-feet 8-inches tall — has contributed his trademark gravelly voice to various video games and comic book projects, and has appeared in horror films like Ghost Shark and Slay Belles.

Playing court clerk Mac Robinson, the cardigan-wearing straight man who deadpanned his way through many a joke at Judge Stone's expense, Charles Robinson didn't slow down after Night Court wrapped. Robinson appeared on a variety of series throughout the years including Charmed, My Name Is Earl, Grey's Anatomy, This Is Us, Better Things, Raven's Home, and Love in the Time of Corona. On July 11, 2021, Robinson died at the age of 75 from cardiac arrest and organ failure.

Marsha Warfield (Roz)

As the sometimes mean, always no-nonsense bailiff Roz Russell, Marsha Warfield kept extremely busy on television throughout the '90s, appearing on everything from Empty Nest to Touched by an Angel to Veronica's Closet. In 1999, Warfield retired from screen acting and went back to being a stand-up comedian on tour in Vegas and beyond. But in 2021, she returned to the small screen, playing Toni Wilson on 9-1-1.
