Boston Legal Season 1, Episode 1: 'Head Cases' - Review
First off, I'd like to start with an honest statement - I was not an avid fan of The Practice, watching it only occasionally for its fantastic writing and formidable cast. But it was always too serious for me; too dramatic. I understand that was t...

Boston Legal Season 1, Episode 3: 'Catch and Release' - Review
It's a longstanding, preconceived notion that lawyers, as well as politicians, are the scum of the earth. A necessary evil. Deceptive, duplicitous, dishonest and every other 'd' word that means the same thing. Well, I'm not even going to try and r...

A few nights ago, January 16th 2005, Boston Legal went up against the 62nd Annual Golden Globe Awards - a daunting task. While James Spader was bested by Deadwood's Ian McShane, William Shatner took honors in the BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR IN A ...

Review Boston Legal: Season 1, Episode 17 - Death Be Not Proud
Probably the strongest episode of the series, dramatically speaking. Of the few episodes of The Practice that I did see prior to the introduction of Alan Shore in Season 8, this rang true as an episode that could have come from that series, with a...
