Night Court: Difference between revisions

*** This is doubly embarrassing for Bull, as his mother named him that because "she was always crazy about that hunchback!" He is quick to stop any attempts to correct her.

*** His mother also gave him his nickname; not because of his size but because of her reaction to the news she was pregnant: "Bull!"

* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: In "Guess Who's Listening to Dinner", Dan finds out that the woman he is dating is the daughter of a notorious mob boss. Before he can end the relationship, he is invited to dinner at her house, being told that "Dad" is anxious to talk with Dan about his future with her. Everyone expects this to be an attempt by the Mafia to bring Dan "into the family", so they'll have an "in" with the NYC District Attorney's office. The truth is that dad knows about Dan's reputation ("To put it mildly, you have the morals of a rutting pig.") and he's so desperate to avoid a society scandal he's willing to pay Dan to discreetly break up with his daughter.

* [[Evil Twin]]: Con-man Will Sanders, to bum Phil Sanders.

* [[Gentle Giant]]: Bull Shannon, who worked with Big Brothers and attempted to write a children's book despite being incredibly intimidating.

** To a lesser degree, Mac Robinson.

* [[Gypsy Curse]]: The entire court was hit with one in Season Two. Bull fell into a deep trance and Dan lost all his savings after his accountant, who was in the middle of an IRS Audit at the time, dropped dead.

* [[Halloween Episode]]: As with Christmas, there was one almost every year.
