The creator of Night Court, one of my all-time favorite sitcoms, Reinhold Weege died of natural causes on December 1. The Wrap has details.

His death gave me reason to track down John Larroquete’s twitter account, in which he wrote the following great tribute:

In life there are those who impact us with such force everything changes. Reinhold Weege was that in mine. May he truly rest in peace.
