Boston Legal

Post by Teaos »

I don't think there is a thread for this.

Anyone else think this is the best show ever.

Brings up important political points, funny as hell, good to see Shatner back.

It never fails to entertain. Hands is awesome to.

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

I love Boston Legal. The one thing I don't like about it is Denny, though. He's a great character and Bill plays him superbly, but I always find myself really badly wishing he wasn't crazy. The "I say and do silly things" line got a old fast for me.

There was an ep on the other day where Denny did a murder trial on his own, and he blew them all away with his closing argument. That's the Denny I'd like to see more of; strong, powerful, capable. Not the buffoon who actually thinks it's a good idea to stick tubes on his face so he can cry.

I dont mind Denny being an idiot.

We have Allan as the super lawyer. I like how they show someone who was once great who has slipped but can still grasp moments of greatness.

Incredible show. It's a shame the schedule is always jumping around, or getting pre-empted by sports, etc. I can never tell when it's going to actually be on, so I've missed most of this season.

Apparently its ratings arent huge but it draws the richest audience.

Thus they put high end products in the adds.

Funny that I would like it, then, eh? :)

That's one of the reasons I watch sci-fi or fantasy almost exclusively: so I can watch things I can't see or do in real life. :wink:

I hate most dramas, with the exclusion of Lost (because it's actually sci-fi/fantasy), and Boston Legal (because they address important, real issues).
