KRISTINE DEBELL ROCKS NIGHT COURT

9/08/2012 | No comment

title: HARRY AND THE ROCK STAR year: 1984 stars: Harry Anderson, Kristine DeBell rating: ***1/2

Young phenom Judge Harry Stone falls in love with famous Rock Star Jennifer Black, a hybrid of punk rock and heavy metal, and whose latest album, I BITE THE SONGS, is a worldwide chart topper.

The unlikely couple met on a talk show, where the obnoxious host, more of a used car salesman, allows both Harry and the sexy rocker, played by cinema starlet Kristine DeBell, to agree on the same thing: neither can stomach phonies.

Well the show caused Harry to be an overnight sensation. The next day everyone in the courtroom, including yellow journalist Terry Kiser, wants something from the hip judge – and Black shows up, tailed by an immense fanbase of punk rockers with colorful Mohawks, to continue her relationship with Harry that had sparked during, and after, the talk show. But Harry soon learns he can’t mix law and pleasure, and the relationship might not last.

Cult actress Kristine DeBell, co-star of MEATBALLS, is cute and energetic in this episode – the first season dealing more on the young judge than the side characters, including John Larroquette and Richard Moll, who are more prominent in seasons that follow.
