The “Big Bang Theory” universe lives on thanks to the prequel series “Young Sheldon” and the upcoming George and Mindy spin-off, and who knows what the future will hold for the franchise moving forward. Melissa Rauch hasn’t been involved with either of those projects thus far, but she continues to star in successful sitcoms courtesy of NBC’s “Night Court” reboot.
Debuting in 2023, “Night Court” sees Rauch play Judge Abby Stone, the daughter of the original 1980s series’ main character. She’s in charge of the Manhattan Criminal Court during the evening shifts, bringing her into contact with some unusual characters. The “Night Court” reboot lays down the law regarding sitcoms, with critics praising it for honoring the original show while bringing some new ideas to the table. As it stands, Rauch has yet to share any embarrassing stories from the set that made her mom freak out, but there’s still time.
