The Emmy®-winning comedy scores laughs with its lighthearted look at the crazy cases and characters that appear in night court in New York City in the 1980s, where anything - and everything - happens. As season six begins, the question remains: Is Assistant D.A. Dan Fielding (Emmy® winner John Larroquette) dead? After his plane crashes, he is presumed gone - how will his colleagues react? Elsewhere, defense attorney Christine Sullivan (Markie Post) is replaced after being listed as dead by a Personnel computer glitch, and a defendant is suddenly alive after 20 years in a coma. Plus, a city auditor scoffs at the idea that Judge Harry T. Stone (Harry Anderson) and his courtroom are a magnet for bizarre and costly happenings . . . until a clown holds them hostage - including the auditor. And in a perhaps prophetic nod to reality TV of today, the courtroom turns into a circus when Harry allows proceedings to be shown on TV.
