Night Court is back on NBC, but the only reason the new-boot could happen was because people loved the original series. Night Court ran for nine seasons from 1984 – 1992, so if you haven’t seen the original yet, it is streaming on Freevee. If you have exhausted all nine seasons plus the new one, don’t worry. Showbiz Cheat Sheet is here to recommend six other shows you might also like if you liked Night Court.

Remember when people read novels? That might seem like an inane statement to those seeking out this review or the story of Amy Tan, but it’s hard to remember the last time a novel dominated the conversation outside the now seemingly narrowed world of people who regularly read fiction. The documentary “Amy Tan: Unintended Memoir” waxes nostalgic for that time, immersing us in the author’s meteoric success with “The Joy Luck Club” in 1989 as a blockbuster work of fiction, while also showing how that level of success and her self-informed pressure to deliver a massive followup, plagued her on a personal level. As the final film from James Redford (son of Robert Redford), this PBS “American Masters” entry is a riveting portrait of the artist, exceptionally crafted and entertaining enough even for those unfamiliar with Tan’s groundbreaking contributions to Asian American literature.
For one, Amy Tan is just cool.

I'm exhausted, pretty sure I'm getting sick, and have a headache more often than not. I'd say this was related to the end of the semester, but I think it's just that May is approaching which basically marks the beginning of summer here in North Cuba and the change of seasons always does screwy things to me. I'm lucky enough to be fleeing town in Mid-May so I don't have to stick around part of for what one prominent South Floridian writer (Dave Barry) referred to as "Giant Armpit Season" which falls roughly between June and September. You can spot the tourists pretty easily those months because they're the ones outside. Also, they always look surprised when the afternoon monsoons roll up. Don't get me wrong, I love the whole jungle meeting the ocean sort of environment down here, but when it's so humid I have to grow gills to...
