It is a show that portrays the law, Illinois [Chicago] law in particular better than any show before it. They present real controversies and the very VERY real maneuvers surrounding them in a way that is compelling on it's surface but mesmerizing if you are a practicing lawyer. I've made some the EXACT objections and arguments made on this show, and have paused the show to pick my own brain when they present arguments and objections that I haven't seen to ruminate on how I'd react. And it's not just 'the law' but firm politics, politics politcs, alliances, assessment of claim value, negotiations, handshake deals, etc., that it gets right. And part of what makes it so compelling is, they didn't go for L@O's 'ripped from today's headlines' approach, but scoured the court system for important cases that AREN'T making headlines, They're all over cybercurrency, data mining, wiretapping, sports injury, etc. in ways nobody's even thought of dramatizing yet. The Illinois Bar should offer CLE credit just for watching. If you want to see how law is ACTUALLY practiced, at least in Illinois, TGW is a great show.

Name your time and place buddy, just name it!!!! Seriously though, I like BBT [and to be honest most all Lorre shows] for what they are. And TGW isn't a depressing show, it can be quite amusing and suspenseful in turns. But it nails what practicing law with high stakes looks like. |

It just amazes me that people feel the need to attack a show for a piece of fantasy about a guy that was basically a Scientologist of his day.
