‘Night Court’ Star, Charlie Robinson Dead at Age 75

NBC’s sitcom Night Court star Charlie Robinson died on Monday, July 12. He was 75 years old.

Robinson’s agent confirmed with The Wrap that the actor passed away at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center after suffering from a heart attack and multisystem organ failure. He was also diagnosed with septic shock and metastatic adenocarcinoma, a type of glandular cancer.

USA Today reported that Robinson’s wife, Dolorita Noonan-Robinson, said in a statement, “Once referred to by Martin Landau as ‘the greatest, underestimated actor in Hollywood,’ Charles Robinson was the love of my life, husband, father, grandfather, and great grandfather.”

“He was truly the working actor’s actor, and of all his passions, his craft took center stage, with his family being the wind beneath his wings, so he could soar to unbelievable heights! On behalf of my husband and family, I thank you for being part of the audience.”

The seasoned actor was best known for playing court clerk and Vietnam war veteran Mac on the NBC show for seven seasons.

The actor also featured in another NBC show as makeup artist Newdell on Buffalo Bill.

He also starred as Bud Harper in

Home Improvement, Sergeant Jeffries in Hart of Dixie, Mr. Munson in Mom and Charles in the series Love in the Time of Corona.

Robinson was seen in some major movies like The Black Gestapo, The River, and Set it Off.

His most recent guest appearances included NBC drama This Is Us and Disney Channel’s reboot series, Raven’s Home. 

Comedienne and actress Marsha Warfield posted a moving message on her Facebook after learning of her friend and Night Court co-star’s death.

“Oh, no! I’m so sorry to read this. Charlie Robinson was one of the great ones. My heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, fans and all whose lives he touched. Rest well, Charlie, I thought you’d live forever,’ she wrote.

Robinson’s Night Court co-star, John Larroquette, wrote a heartfelt message of his colleague on Monday.
