Raising the Bar/YMMV


 * Growing the Beard: The second season, and the three-episode final season, are far superior to the first.
 * Magnificent Bastard: The jury's still out on Balco, but just watch him in the series finale. Dude played one hell of a game of Xanatos Speed Chess.
 * Too Good to Last: Presented viewers with complex, morally-ambiguous cases that often had no resolution or unhappy ones. Presented the lawyers as flawed human beings desperately doing their best not to be overwhelmed by the system, judges as concerned more about politics than law and overall the show Grew the Beard in the second season. When it was promptly cancelled.
