Movie Reviews of Boston Legal - Season 2
Movie Review: The best show on television!
Summary: 5 Stars
First, I have to agree with everything Amazon's Editorial Critic, Jeff Shannon, had to say in his review. I wish I'd written it myself. I absolutely love this show. It's brillantly written, acted, directed, designed, and filmed. I quickly became a fan of the Alan Shore (James Spader) character during the last season of The Practice. I then followed him to Crane, Poole & Schmidt, where he blossomed into the type of lawyer that you have to stand up and cheer for, no matter how naughty he is at the office. Though his long trial closings may tire him, they bring pure joy to my heart with the sense of justice embedded within each word that he utters. Great writing! In Season 2, Alan Shore also became more human with his fear of clowns, night terrors, and a level of stress that causes him to mix up his words. More thought was definitely put into Denny Crane's (William Shatner) character this season, as well as his friendship with Alan and the get together on the balcony at the end of each show. They both embody the true meaning of friendship between men, while kidding about it at the same time. Though I didn't particularly like the characters played by Mark Valley, Candice Bergen, and Rene Auberjonois in the first season, I grew to respect them much more in Season 2 as their characters were fleshed out and given more to do. The scenes where Paul Lewiston (Rene Auberjonois) confronts his daughter about her drug addiction was the type of acting that brings tears to one's eyes with the truth, love, and sincerity that are protrayed. Adding to the cast of regulars was Julie Bowen as Denise, who hopes to make partner within the firm. She brough a new edge to the series with her intelligence and sexiness, and I was surprised by what happened in the last episode. I don't want to give away any spoilers. Boy, was this also the year for guest stars: Tom Selleck (you could definitely see the chemistry between him and Candice Bergen), Michael J. Fox (who can still knock you out with his acting, charm, and boyish good-looks and ends up saving the day at the end), Joanna Cassidy (still as beautiful and sexy as ever), Jeri Ryan (I don't know about Alan Shore's breath, but she literally took mine away), Ed Begly, Jr., Robert Wagner, Henry Gibson, Howard Hesseman, Betty White, Freddie Prince, Jr., and even director, Wes Craven. Parker Posey's addition to the cast at the end of the season was a stroke of genius. Think of the movie, Blade III, but without the fangs. She's going to be a match for Alan Shore!!! The only complaint I have about the disc collection is that the two featurettes only total about fifteen minutes. There should've been two-to-three hours of extras. One clear thing that has happened with Season 2 (I don't know if it's the writers or the actors doing it), is that the characters acknowledge that this is a TV show through comments here and there. Rather than pulling me out of the moment, it causes me to laugh along with them and to enjoy the tongue-in-cheek jest. In my opinion, Boston Legal is the best series on television today. As much as I dislike lawyers, I love the ones on this show and often think that I'd like to be Alan Shore with his firm sense of justice, equality, integrity, and sexual pervertedness. When he gives you his promise, you know that he'll keep it no matter what the cost. I'd rate this collection 10 Stars, if I could, but five will have to suffice. Highly Recommended!!!
