Aw, I loved her on that show. Good night Christine. With Charles Robinson recently passing away, that leave John Larroquette, Richard Moll, and Marsha Warfield of the regular cast remaining.
I’m sorry she passed. Night Court was one of the great sitcoms. It had both humor and heart. Markie also guest starred in quite a few episodes of Chicago P. D.
Depending on how you define “regular cast”, Ellen Foley, who was the public defender in season 2, is still around. (Paula Kelly, who played the public defender in season 1, passed away in Feb 2020.)
Harry’s death “hit” me a bit, for a celebrity death (most of which I don’t lose a lot of sleep over), I’d always liked Harry in Night Court, and I have family in New Orleans. He owned a magic shop down there that I visited a couple of times, he was hanging out in there one of those times and while I’ve never been a “get an autograph or photo with a celebrity” kind of guy, I did introduce myself and told him I had really liked his work. He was polite and personable, was a nice guy. Much taller in person than he always seemed in his roles on Cheers and Night Court, where he always looked diminutive, I’m 6’5" and he wasn’t much shorter than I am.
Harry was also only 5ish years older than me and had always seemed in good shape his whole life, so a sudden death from a heart attack at 65 just felt “too soon.” I had no clue Markie Post was ill but I’m actually surprised she was 70, I honestly assumed she was slightly younger than me, I guess she just looked a lot younger than I did back in the 80s.
I’m confused. If you were replying to my post, I was quoting Shoeless’ post referring to Ellen Foley. She is indeed the Night Court actress who also sang with Meat Loaf.
