(Season 5, Episode 8) Alan Shore got to speechify in a case on abortion. He probably got an erection as soon as the case was offered to him. It also featured the welcome return of Ming-Na to television, playing the role of the mother of Alan’s client. Meanwhile, Jerry went apeshit crazy at a “Starbucks” […]
(Season 2, Episode 6) One of the hardest things to think about when watching this show is how Chuck is a Stanford guy who not only had his future taken away from him back then, but has had his whole life disrupted now, both because of Bryce Larkin. Chuck’s a nice guy and so far […]
