In season 6, episode 19 "From Snoop to Nuts," Buddy finally reveals that he is Harry Stone's real father. But the story doesn't seem to make sense. Buddy says that Harry was born in a mental institution, the offspring of Harry's mother and Buddy. Buddy goes on to reveal that Harry's mother got out of the institution BEFORE Buddy did, and by the time Buddy got out, Harry's mom was already with Harry SENIOR. Buddy said Harry Sr. "seemed like a nice enough guy." The story ends up with Harry figuring out that he was named after Harry SENIOR.

But if Judge Stone was born BEFORE his mom even MET Harry Sr., then how could he have been named after Harry Sr. -- a person she had not even met yet at the time of Harry Jr.'s birth? Did she NOT name Harry Jr. until much later than after his birth? Did they name Harry Jr.'s something else and then CHANGE to Harry Jr. later? Is this the result of Buddy being an unreliable source due to being a little nutty? I'd chalk it up to bad writing, but all of these facts come out in the SAME CONVERSATION and scene.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Just started watching Night court for the first time, really enjoying it so far. I just got to Halloween Too and have a question.

At the beginning, Harry mentions someone (Dan) dressed as the Moral Majority for a previous Halloween, and apparently there was some controversy about it.

I'm not American, could someone explain what happened there?

In the episode The Modest Proposal, Harry motions a defendant held over for a “higher court” as a joke about his outrageous height, before walking him back to holding, Bull asks him if he’s got a sister. IMDb was useless, Google AI kept steering me back to Richard Moll. Anyone have any insight?

There are 193 of Night Court. IMDb says that Harry Anderson was in all of them, but that's not true. Only Dan and Bull were present for every episode of the series.

Harry is not in the season 9 episode, "Guess Who's Listening to Dinner" when Dan wants to break up with a mobster's daughter and takes Christine to the dinner while wearing a wire.

Harry's absence is explained early on. Mac mentions to Christine he had a cold, and Christine remarks that she's surprised he's still sick and she gave him chicken soup. Mac tells her he doesn't have a cold anymore, but food poisoning.

Not sure why Harry Anderson was not available for that episode, but I love the explantation. Especially since we know Christine isn't a great cook. She gave the courthouse food poisoning once before when she cooked Thanksgiving dinner and the yams were bad.

I know Charles Robinson directed one, but did Harry?
