Movie Reviews of Boston Legal - Season One

Movie Review: William Shatner changed my mind
Summary: 5 Stars

I've never been a particular Bill Shatner fan in anything he's done, but ... OMG... DENNY CRANE! One of the most original characters from any television series. The writing is phenomenal, but Bill Shatner's delivery and facial expressions are hilarious. Very, very sad when Boston Legal went off the air - and even more sad when I read it was because BL played to an older demographic that advertisers weren't interested in reaching. So much TV is complete trash with canned laughter, inane dialogue and terrible writing. If you want a series that is smart, funny, and makes you THINK (stories each season taken from current events) then get this. You won't regret it.

Movie Review: Absoulety Awesome
Summary: 5 Stars

I think that this show is absolutely awesome. I was introduced to this show during season 1 and I missed a few of the first shows. However, I thought it was very entertaining and quite comedic. I think that all of the actors are great. I knew that if I ever got my husband to watch an episode that he would be hooked and I was right. Now he watches with me every week. We have DVR and we record it every week and can't wait to see it. I am looking forward to getting the first season on disk so that I can see the whole season and my friend is wanting to see it also. For those that think it is too preachy, hey life goes on look at the fun parts.

Movie Review: Calling all Minds...
Summary: 5 Stars

I had long ago given up on network tv. Recently an associate with t-vo asked me to sit in on a t-vo compressed version of Boston Legal. It was remarkable tv. Witty, articulate, entertaining, and extremely incisive. The show must be written by some of the most intelligent people in the country. I am absolutely amazed that anyone with a mind is still writing for network tv. Weekly we are being given brilliant doses of dynamic dialogue packaged in performances that rival anything the Oscar winners have produced over the last decade. T-vo or not, I'll not be doing anything else Tuesday nights for quite some time.

Movie Review: It's about time
Summary: 5 Stars

Denny Crain. That's all that really needs to be said, but I'll add a few comments. Boston Legal is a show that everyone in my extended family just LOVES, from my 14 year old neice to my 88 year old father. It gets taped every week for those who had to miss an episode for one reason or another. The reason, I believe, is that BL talks about big ideas/issues of the day, but not with an obvious slant. Further, the show exhibits an offbeat sensibility which is refeshing and rare on network television. Finally, most of the characters (and the actors portaying them) have a lot of charm and an easy chemistry between them.

Movie Review: Wonderful
Summary: 5 Stars

'Boston Legal' is one of the best shows on television. It's witty and dramatic, and the accting is phenomenal. William Shatner is wonderful as Denny Crane (I'd say it's his best role yet). James Spader deserved every single emmy for his portrayal of Alan Shore. He's a complex character, so it's worth seeing him in action again and again. Another great thing about this series are the guest-stars, from Freddie Prinze Jr. to Betty White to Michael J. Fox (though he won't be on this DVD set). I'm so glad a David E. Kelley series is out on DVD... it just makes it better that his best series is the first one out.
