Court is back in session.
Unapologetically optimistic judge Abby Stone, the daughter of the late Harry Stone, follows in her father's footsteps as she presides over the night shift of a Manhattan arraignment court and tries to bring order to its crew of oddballs and cynics, most notably former night court prosecutor Dan Fielding.

Dry and dull with actors just going through the motions to a laugh track.
Not so funny, no chemistry among starters, a hard pass.
10 Episodes in and I'm wondering why I'm still here. Melissa Raunch and John Larroquette are solid actors, but even they can't save this show. Admittedly, I'm a Brit and American humour is very hit-and-miss with me... but I've genuinely struggled to find anywhere to laugh in this show. I think this is the first time I've "met" Lacretta and at this point, I'm hoping it'll be the last. Not a great actor and sticks out like a sore thumb... that said, the same could be said of India de Beaufort. I have a feeling she may have taken the comedic role to challenge herself, but it just doesn't work for me. TL:DR - Not funny. Average-At-Best Performances. No Chemistry.
I thought the show was okay. I like to have some easy-to-watch half-hour comedies to watch. Night Court is definitely something I would watch as long as it was on, but I wasn't all that surprised when it was canceled.
Watch the original series which better in everyway.
