[@johnbertrand7185]

The reason why he won four straight Emmys. Funny side note, his "date" is the late veteran character actress Alice Drummond (1928 - 2015), best known as the librarian in Ghostbusters (1984) and as Ray Finkle's mom in Ace Ventura: Pet Detecive.

Alice Drummond also played an Alzheimer's patient in the _Boston Legal_ episode _"The Ass Fat Jungle"_ (S2E8). The scenes with Drummond and Candice Bergen (who played Shirley Schmidt) are honestly heartbreaking.

These were the days of Great TV, the writers back then knew how to write shows that were funny, without being offensive. Back in the days of Night Court the writers left it up to the viewers imagination to fill in what they didn’t show, this is what made it so funny as everyone had to visualize their own scene, in today’s shows the writers show what happens, which is their view, or what they think the views perception is, which totally blows the comedy.
