Boston Legal - final episode

A Customer from London, 8th June, 2009

How a fine show can have such a poor weird ending is so upsetting. The show has constantly pushed boundaries in both its storylines and its jokes, forcing the viewer to experience every emotion in each episode. However, the final episode EVER is just wacky. And not a good wacky. Not the wacky we have grown to love from Boston Legal. More and Adam Sandler style wacky. Pointless wacky. Maybe it coincided with the writers strike. That's the only explanation I have. Overall though, Boston Legal is one of the finest shows ever made. The cast is unmatched for its experience and excellent acting. The storylines are farfetched yet very, very believable. Just brilliant. Thank you Crane, Poole and Schmidt. And Alan of course.

Boston legal series 5

mo22 from , 19th September, 2009

If you're watching series 5, you'll already be in love with Denny, Allan, Jerry and co. and wondering how long they can keep you shedding tears of laughter and sadness. When will the decline begin? Not at series 5! Brilliant as ever was!

I can't believe it's over.......

timloynes from from Cambridge, 9th June, 2009

This programme has been a great favourite of mine over the last few years so this last episode was never going to be easy. It was okay; some laughs, a couple of surprises - I've given it 5 stars but clearly that is not a standalone score. I'm sad it's finished - it was great ;-)

What a performance

Donensian from , 14th September, 2009

The final season of Boston Legal, unfortunately. As one of the characters says 'You're a hoot, that's what you are, a hoot' Brilliantly written and performed by a host of excellent actors lead by William Shatner, James Spader and Candice Bergen. I can only add that if this is a true reflection of the legal system in the USA then 'God Help America!'
