Okay, it’s been a lot of reviews and some commercials recently, but it’s time to get back into the ranking business. Since we’ve been doing so much new, let’s do some old in the form of a return to the ‘80s with Night Court. I never really watched the show, but was reminded of it by that weird 30 Rock episode where Kenneth’s dream is a recreation of Night Court. It lasted a crazy nine seasons, and although I fully admitted the cast, who I knew almost nothing about, to be largely unsuccessful, I was surprised. There aren’t a lot of stars, but almost everybody’s had at least a fair amount of work.
6. Marsha Warfield (as Roz Russell) – Warfield is the obvious sixth, and then the rankings get muddled, but her career really isn’t bad at all. She followed up Night Court with appearances in episodes of Hangin’ with Mr. Cooper, The Addams Family, The John Larroquette Show, and her biggest role outside of Night Court as Dr. Maxine Nightengale in two seasons of Empty Next. She was in episodes of Dave’s World, Smart Guy, Mad About You, Moesha (if you couldn’t figure out Warfield’s race, you probably have a good guess by now), two of Living Single, and singles of Clueless, the series, Love Boat: The Next Wave, and Veronica’s Closet. She hasn’t acted in this millennium.
5. Richard Moll (as Bull Shannon) – Shannon proves that you can do a lot of work acting and still have nobody notice. Between voice acting, cameos in TV episodes, and low budget films, Moll has kept shockingly busy. Voice acting: As Two Face in stone cold classic Batman: The Animated Series, Norman in Mighty Max, episodes of Superman, Freakazoid, Aaaahh!!! Real Monsters (had to check three times to get the “Aaahh!!!” spelling correct), The Incredible Hulk, Spider-man, as Scorpion, The New Batman Adventures, Justice League, and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. TV: He was in episodes of Martin and Highlander, five episodes of two-season forgotten TGIF show Getting By, episodes of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, Babylon 5, Baywatch, Weird Science, Married with Children, 7th Heaven, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Smallville, and Cold Case. He appeared in 17 episodes of Nick show 100 Deeds for Eddie Dowd. Movies, real, and seemingly made up: He was in Beanstalk, The Elevator, Galaxis, The Lawyer, The Secret Agent Club, Jingle All The Way, Snide and Prejudice, But I’m A Cheerleader, Monkey Business, Route 66, The Biggest Fan, Angel Blade, Dumb Luck, Lake Effects, and then, well you get the idea. The man must really need some paychecks. His ranking here by the way is not obvious at all. The reason he got stuck in fifth is the simple lack of being a main cast member in an at least three season sitcom, which everyone else coming up has.
4. Harry Anderson (as Harry Stone) – He was in episodes of Hearts Afire, Night Stand, his Night Court co-worker’s The John Larroquette Show, and Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. His most notable post-Night Court work was starring in four season sitcom Dave’s World based on the life of columnist Dave Barry (Anderson was Dave). After that, he’s only been in episodes of Noddy and Son of the Beach, which was in 2002. I thought I’d put him higher for starring in a four season sitcom, but everyone left was a main cast member in something and showed up in more shows.
Television, the Drug of the Nation 
Am I the only one finds something funny about you checking three times to get the spelling of “Aaahh!!!” right and then spelling it two different ways in the span of one sentence?
Ha! I was just about to comment on that but you beat me to the punch. Aaaaaaah!!!
