Well, many of us loved the original.
Harry, Christine, Dan, Bull, Roz/Thelma, Mac, even Soon Lee wasnt too awfully annoying.
I was really enjoying the first 4 episodes of the new reboot, then 5 was kinda...meh...
Then 6. Episode 6 deserved to be sandblasted from time itself.
The scene: A down and out, bottom of the barrel NYC district Night Court. (The kind of place lower than a Union Station workers toilet)
The cast: The lowest/most incompetent/inept/noobs of the NYC legal system process the very dregs of NYC. (hookers known by their first names, etc)
The story; Into the legal system sewer come a bunch of infant do-gooders on a (very hollywood) crusade to ignore the laws, and free a self admitted vandal.
Boo-hoo. Suddenly, (because it's 2022-23) it's not a legal issue, but a racial social justice matter, preached by snot nosed little buggers who probably cant wipe their own butts.
Oh my. Arent they superior!?
Only in hollywood would they not be put out on the corner at $5 a pop, strung out on crack, earning for the guilty scum who just posted bail.
It was preachy and so totally un-funny and out of the realm of basic common sense as to just switch off, and watch re-runs of Cheers.
The show isnt remotely mature enough to have entire episodes spewing political messages of any kind @ s1e6. Maybe season 3 when they have an audience. Certainly not the first third of season 1.
