DVD Review of Boston Legal Season 4


Boston legal has one of the most intimate, loving, committed relationships I’ve ever seen on television. And that relationship just so happens to be between two heterosexual males. Denny Crane and Alan Shore of Crane, Poole, and Schdmidt, two of Boston Legal’s finest.

David E. Kelley can make you hope and believe in anything. I actually believe if men could develop and keep relationships such as this one on Boston Legal the world would be a much better place.

In Season 4 of Boston Legal the most notable additions to the cast are John Larroquette and Tara Summers. Boston Legal Season 4 opens with Alan Shore defending senior partner Shirley Schdmidt. Jerry Espenson assists new lawyer Katie Lloyd on her very first case; which happens to be a capital murder trial. Clarence/Clarice Bell gets into trouble with the new senior partner Carl Sack played by John Larroquette. Alan in his newly committed relationship is given an ultimatum, and then enters a sexy litigator from his past to stir up trouble.

Wilds antics definitely ensue with this quirky cast of characters. But don’t let the side splitting laughter fool you. David E. Kelley and his staff of writers manage to brilliantly weave in up to the minute news stories with their ingenious twists along with the most talked about social issues of our day. Anything you might consider taboo is covered on Boston Legal and it’s done by giving equal time to both sides of the issue. If it shouldn’t be said or done then you know Denny Crane either does one or both.

Season 4 of Boston Legal will have you engaged from beginning to end. This is undoubtedly one of the best court room dramas ever done. This Emmy award winning series has single-handedly revived the careers of James Spader and William Shatner.

With that being said Boston Legal Season 4 is definitely one DVD worth watching.
