Boston Legal
Led by an Emmy Award-winning cast, Boston Legal tells the professional and personal stories of a group of brilliant but often emotionally challenged attorneys. Sometimes irreverent and funny, sometimes intense and moving, Boston Legal prides itself on being at the forefront of issue-oriented television, often addressing issues that are underreported by the media. Fast-paced and wildly comedic, the series confronts social and moral issues, while its characters continually stretch the boundaries of the law. Starring James Spader as Alan Shore; William Shatner as Denny Crane; Candice Bergen as Shirley Schmidt; John Larroquette as Carl Sack; Christian Clemenson as Jerry Espenson; and Tara Summers as Katie Lloyd.
