... who made Ally Mcbeal, so you can probably predict the kind of humour we have here. The complete lack of morals by most of the main characters is quite refreshing (and a huge dig at lawyers) but as the show progresses we do tend to find out where the li...more

I got introduced to Boston Legal pretty late, I think the 2nd season had complted on UK TV by the time I had bothered to catch an episode but it prompted me to get hold of the complete first season and work my way through it. It's a show based in a huge Boston law firm, Crane, Pool and Schmidt, we lost Pool early in the first episode but Denny Crane (William Shatner) is there from the start and Shirley Schmidt (Candice Bergen) arrives later on in the show.
