I don't know if I spelled Morrow's character correctly but Night Court was the shit.

Am I the only person who watched Northern Exposure? That was one of the greatest shows ever.

Man, I can't find many of the classic scenes. Here's one:

[Krydor]

Watched it, but it was more of a dramatic comedy.

Markie Post had awesome boobs. Night Court!

[Lucky]

Yeah, but she had the worst damn haircut.

[Krydor]

It has to be seen within the context of the era. That was the look, man. That Olivia Newton John hair was the 80's answer to Farrah Fawcett's 70's hair. I like big hair.

[Lucky]

One can rationalize Farrah Fawcett and '70's hair to me.

One can not rationalize Markie Post and her '80s hair to me. Just because pop culture decided insane hairstyles worked in the '80s doesn't mean I have to respect it. I mean, listen to their music and look at their clothes.

I do love Post though. She has a nice respectable hair style on Scrubs and I lust for her in her 50s. That's something special. If it wasn't for that damn hair she would have been amazing.

DAMN YOU '80s!

Yeah, I'm voting for the show I've seen. Or for the hot chick. Or whatever.

[Jack Quinn]

Plus Night Court has one of the best theme songs of all time.

And I can not lie.

So what the hell was opposite Northern Exposure on Monday nights that (almost) nobody has ever seen it? I don't know, 'cause CBS was all that came in for us when I was growing up out in the boonies. That's also why I have no nostalgia for Night Court--what was that on, NBC? I've caught it in re-run a couple times, and it's a good show, but Northern Exposure's a fuckin' masterpiece.

It's a lot like Wiseguy in that, despite the fact that they were twenty years ago, and I've never caught a re-run, I can still describe about seven different favorite scenes.

And, yeah, it was a "dramedy," but it was damn funny when it was being funny.

Sorry, Lucky. I can easily rationalize 80's hair, clothes and music.

Big hair meant that girls spent some time on how they looked, unlike the bland 90's in which men had to accept women for "who they were" and "respect their intellect".

The clothes meant that you could see what you were getting beforehand, unlike the bland 90's where everyone wore baggy lumberjack clothes to hide their IMMENSE ROLLS OF FAT.

The music was about getting laid and was full of awesome guitar, instead of emo crap.

[Lucky]

The baggy '90s are balanced out by the hip huggers, sun dresses, and other revealing and flattering clothing of the 90% of society that weren't wiggers or grungers. And when I insult '80s music I don't mean that questionable hair metal. I mean that horrible New Wave shit. That's the worst era of music I can imagine.

Women in the '80s may have cared about what they looked like but they apparently were unaware they liked like aliens and clowns. No A for Effort in my class. Sorry.

And I MUCH rather women hide their immense rolls of fat in baggy clothing than show it off in their fucking SPANDEX AND FLUORESCENTS!

[Batman]

New Wave was the greatest music ever.

New Wave forever!
