What We’re Watching: Night Court Reboot and Brothers and Sisters “Sexual Politics”

On this week's entertainment-themed Round 2, we checked out NBC's absolutely fine and pleasant reboot of <i>Night Court</i>, created by and starring Melissa Rauch (<i>Big Bang Theory</i>'s Bernadette). We enjoyed seeing a few actors from <i><a href="https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog/what-were-watching-zep-zoeys-extraordinary-best-friend-and-veronica-mars-credit-where-credits-due" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist</a></i> (India de Beaufort--who also appeared on <i><a href="https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog/round-2-one-day-at-a-time-the-west-wing-and-company" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">One Day at a Time</a></i>--and Kapil Talwalkar). But we might've enjoyed watching the original series' pilot even more (it's available on <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B00C139HYE/ref=atv_hm_hom_1_c_lZOsi7_2_2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Freevee</a>). Mentioned: The late Harry Anderson's <a href="https://youtu.be/gruBx-dU1lw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">recurring role on <i>Cheers</i></a>.<br /><br />Over on <i>Brothers and Sisters</i>, nobody's enjoying much of anything (surprise), but everybody feels compelled to talk with their siblings about their sex lives. Next: S1 E 13, "Something Ida This Way Comes." We actually talked about this episode on a <a href="https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog/round-2-dancing-with-brothers-and-sisters-in-the-west-wing" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Round 2</a> way back in 2017, but we're revisiting it now with more context (at least for Catherine). We'll also follow Rob Lowe to his latest movie, <a href="https://www.netflix.com/title/81155175" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><i>Dog Gone</i></a>.
