The network has canceled the comedy after three seasons. The show aired its third season finale, which will now serve as a series ender, on Tuesday — although sources say Warner Bros. TV, which produces the show with Universal TV, may try to find a new home for the series.

Night Court stars Melissa Rauch (who also executive produces) as Abby Stone, a judge in Manhattan’s often chaotic night court and the daughter of Harry Stone, the lead character in the original 1984-92 series (who was played by the late Harry Anderson).

 Wow - it's a bloodbath at NBC!
 I think they're cancelling *all* of their shows that have premiered in the last 3 years.
 Reddit is talking about NBA on NBC as the reason, but I think there's more too this.
 The "Chicago" shows probably got lucky that one of them wasn't cancelled too. (I'd vote for PD, which seems pointless to me without either Sophia Bush or she-who-smiles-inappropriately...)

But the day is not over!
I'm hoping that The Hunting Party survives. Based on ratings, it shouldn't, but they have to keep some programming on their schedule.
