Mayim Bialik and Melissa Rauch are set to share the screen once again, reuniting for the first time since their days on The Big Bang Theory. Fans can look forward to seeing these beloved stars together in Season 3 of Night Court, though the exact air date is yet to be announced.
The two actresses became fan favorites on The Big Bang Theory, with Bialik playing the quirky neuroscientist Amy Farrah Fowler and Rauch portraying the high-pitched, assertive microbiologist Bernadette Rostenkowski-Wolowitz. Their chemistry on the CBS sitcom helped make the show a massive hit from its premiere in 2007 until its final episode in 2019. Now, Bialik and Rauch are reuniting in a new comedic setting, bringing excitement to fans of the iconic series.
Mayim Bialik Joins Night Court as Herself — With a Twist
In her upcoming appearance on Night Court, Bialik will play a heightened, fictional version of herself. According to Entertainment Weekly, her character will find herself in court as a defendant and eventually strikes up an unusual friendship with Judge Abby Stone, played by Melissa Rauch. The plot takes a surprising turn when it’s revealed that Bialik’s character is actually stalking Abby, creating a fun and unpredictable dynamic between the two.
Bialik shared her excitement about reuniting with Rauch, joking, “I feel like I should be dressed as Amy and she should be dressed as Bernadette.” The actress noted that filming together again brought a wave of nostalgia. “Melissa and I spent nine years of our lives side by side on The Big Bang Theory. We joined the show together in Season 4, so our paths have been closely linked.”
A Meta-Referential Reunion Full of Nostalgia
Fans of The Big Bang Theory can expect a few nods to the science-based sitcom during Bialik’s appearance. While she remained tight-lipped about specific details, Bialik teased that viewers should be on the lookout for “meta references” related to their shared past on The Big Bang Theory. This playful approach is sure to delight longtime fans who have missed seeing the duo together on screen.
This isn’t the first time a member of the Big Bang cast has popped up on Night Court. Earlier this year, Kunal Nayyar, who played Raj on The Big Bang Theory, made a guest appearance on the show. He played a high-profile fashion designer who had a sweet storyline with Rauch’s character, adding another layer of nostalgia for fans of the CBS hit.
A Long-Awaited Comeback for Big Bang Fans

Bialik and Rauch’s shared history and comedic chemistry promise to bring an extra dose of humor and heart to the legal sitcom. Their reunion is already generating buzz, with fans eagerly awaiting the episode’s premiere.
With Night Court continuing to draw in a strong audience, this reunion could be a highlight of the upcoming season, offering a fun blend of new laughs and nostalgic callbacks.
