The Practice

"I have a real problem with the characters on this program, which I'll state shortly. Yet I give this show 4 stars because I'm completely addicted to it. I love the cases even though some of them are ridiculous. It's just very intriguing. Now. As for the characters, there are only three that are actually decent people: Jimmy, Rebecca, & Lucy. The rest are reprehensible. The DAs, judges, & criminal lawyers are all pretty despicable. They fight to win, not for any moral reasons. Then they'll show a character showing contrition for their actions, I suspect so we'll continue to watch a show full of hateful people. They show us they do have redeeming qualities, only to have them go back to their self-serving actions in the next episode. You don't start out hating these people but as the episodes & seasons go on, you can't help but start to despise them. I'm currently on season 4, episode 18 & there are a total of 8 seasons. As I said, I'm quite addicted to the show so I will watch the entire series & then watch Boston Legal, the spin-off, which I'm sure will have even more disgusting characters because the lead actors are James Spader & William Shatner playing lawyers and they are known for playing sleezy characters, Spader more than Shatner. & since the lawyers are pretty nasty on The Practice, it seems quite plausible that the spin-off will as well. I, personally, can't stand lawyers & I think I'd be hard pressed to find a decent, ethical one that isn't charging your first born daughter because they're almost all just in it for the money, power, & status. & yet, I love watching law shows. I'd just like to find one where the lawyers are actually good people. (This is my first time watching The Practice but I'm also rewatching 🖤Ally McBeal [watched when it aired in the late '90s/early '00s], which is in the same "universe" as The Practice & had a crossover event, as well as characters guest starring on the others' shows.) Please suggest shows with ethical lawyers!"

"This show is soooooooo good. It's dramatic for sure but the story never gets boring.Eugine is my favorite ❤️"

"I love how they all have morals which is domething very few lawyers actually have because they’re trained not to"
