Denny Crane!

[SPORK]

Oh my goshes, I think it's time we have a Boston Legal Appreciation Thread. A BLAT, it seems.

Favourite bit from last night's was when Alan Shaw was trying to convince that Public Whatshisface that Brad Chase was going to run against him. Oh, and Denny's conversation with Daniel (Michael J. Fox)

What bits were your favourites? :yes:

[HDTboy]

As much as I love the program, I think there's probably already a whole website dedicated to it.

[Colapop]

Jeez it's bad enough the amount of time I spend on (when I should be working to save for a bike) But now ya want me to watch the bullshitbox as well??

[Sniper]

I deliberatly avoid that program cause its American shite. Michael J Fox sealed its coffin long ago

[skelstar]

Think the shows 'MJF' thread is wearing a bit thin. I hate BEtty Whites role in the show. Alan and Denny make it. Rene Auberjonois's role seems only a plot device.

Love the show though. If I hadnt given it a chance I would have written it off as 'American shite' too :).

[NC]

House is way better :)

[Sniper]

House is way better :)

Seconded....

[skelstar]

I agree. Different shows though, which makes sitting on the couch for two hours quite enjoyable on Tues night.

[bobsmith]

It's good, but it used to be better when it had a hot brunett on it.... then they got rid of the hot brunett and got a dirty blonde who's too old and they also got rid of the hot blonde very soon afterwards. Now it just has a dirty blonde who's too old, a ex-secretary who kills people, and a couple of young associates who in general sucks.

Well I still love the program though.

[Sniper]

True, but I prefer Houses' sarcasm and wit. Plus the program makes sense and is unpredictable until the end.

Fuck I hate that program........

[skelstar]

Hes great in this program. So far his cellphone has beeped like a tricorder when he opens it, and hes been singing (ie badly) like he does in real life.

[skelstar]

Reckon House is a little predictable. They often break into houses (hee) and last nights reveal wasnt that great.

Like the quote: 'you had me at 15 yr old teenage catwalk model'.

[NC]

Fuck I hate that program........
I see he was getting the "blue steel" down pac lastnight.
Donald Trump :sick:
It's all about the money, not the haircut

Quite like it when he meets his son.

Most of the time, I really enjoy Alan Shaw's brilliant closing arguments

Last week Shaw says to Denny: "There you are, I haven't seen you all episode"

Classic. But I agree, Fox's character should die. Now. (I haven't watched last nights episode yet so hopefully he has).

I love this show, but I still think House is great. DIET scotch! ROFLMAO
Biggest loser ..... the name says it all,
Next top model.... who farkin cares??? non stop bitch fight without the fun bits.

[nerved]

House is the go, I don't own a telly, but if theres a chance to watch anything on the box its House.. Out come my pathology books its a great way to study!!

[Smorg]

House is way better :)

House rides a Repsol

[Squeak the Rat]

House rides a Repsol
Good point. There are a few similarities aren't there :killingme

[Smorg]

Seconded....

I'd rather have a honda :blip:

[Hitcher]

Somewhere in another thread, I think I posted some favourite Denny Crane quotes...

[Marmoot]

Last week Shaw says to Denny: "There you are, I haven't seen you all episode"

Classic. But I agree, Fox's character should die. Now. (I haven't watched last nights episode yet so hopefully he has).

I meant the Court closing arguments......

But yes, I do enjoy the normal end-scenes between those two guys.

I don't really enjoy Fox's character either.

[SPORK]

Oh my gosh, do any of you that pass it off as "american shite" actually watch it!?

And don't worry people, I'm pretty sure we won't be seeing Fox again...

PS: Rhona Mitra (the hot brunette) is agreeably fucking smokin'

[poorbastard]

Tuesday nights the only night I sit in front of the telly. 2 great hours of TV watching.

[SARGE]

but....but its american shite remember



so am i but you all love ME...right?

[Lou Girardin]

House is way better :)

What?
The grumpy Pommie doctor with a heart of gold. surrounded by everso caring Merkins.:sick:

House is a Yank Lou.. most poms dont have the balls to be a proper grump.. eventually ... that attitude is gonna cheese someone off.. better be prepared to back it up with a compusory headbutt

ask me how i know this..

actually - Hugh Laurie is English.

Hugh Laurie is English... House the Character is a Yank

[charlotte22]

Thanks for clearing that up you guys. I was all confused.

[PuppetMaster]

House has become predicable, its an American tv trait.
Person gets sick, doctors spend an hour injecting, cutting, anal probing, and eventually figure it out and the patient is saved....phew.
Still, its worth watching Hugh Lawrie and his quick wit.

Boston Legal is the best thing on telly at the moment. Along with My name is Earl.

[Devil]

Last week Shaw says to Denny: "There you are, I haven't seen you all episode"

Hah, I loved that!

[SARGE]

no problem.. we try to keep the newbies confused as long as possible..

[emaN]

Denny last night asking for a raincheck to attend the funeral...he he

On House:
"We've got rectal bleeding"
"What? All of you?"

I video both to fast-forward thru' the shite ads...

Watch 'Grumpy Old Men', Poms do grumpy with wit and panache.
It was one of your actresses that said Poms sound better reading a phone book, than an American does reciting the Gettysburg address.

[bobsmith]

Indeed. - Even my girlfriend agrees...

Can't believe Eidos fired her from being the real-life Lara Croft model... Then the stupid movie makers runed the whole tomb raider series by hiring Angelina Jolie to play Lara Croft in the movies when she doesn't look anything like her... Suck. - prefer her look on boston legal though

[edit - minor changes and added a picture]

[SPORK]

Bump, in anticipation of tonight's episode!

Totally agree about House but still watch it cos i like his nastiness... but getting bored with them ALWAYS saving the patient... same scenario every week just a new disease...
Boston Legal Rocks... followed closely by Bones ( closet Buffy and Angel fan here... )
Hard to pick a fav funny moment cos there are so many but I guess I just love the way Alan is so calmly sleazy... brilliant stuff!

I'm not entirely sure I like the direction BL is taking.. they seem to be trying to put a much nicer more human face on Alan and I dont like it, no sir I dont.

[skelstar]

He seems to be crusading for someone every week.

Who was the artist that the little girl and Alan were talking about last night?

[bobsmith]

Hmmm and I've noticed that it seems they got rid of his latest secretary... It used to be a program full of hot actresses and not they got rid of the last "sort of remotely attractive" actress they had and it's now full of ugly people. wtf.

[skelstar]

Yeah, its like...um...real life!!!

I do feel your pain though :).

[bobsmith]

I'm glad someone agrees... If I wanted to watch real-life people, I wouldn't be watching TV, I would be stalking people...

this is why I don't understand f&*@#ng reality TV either... what a load of crap.

[skelstar]

Reality TV f*cks me off, programmers found that we kinda like watching R-TV and its friggen cheap to buy, so thats what we predominantly get. Who really watches Survivor Series 10 anyway?

[buellbabe]

They are just lulling you into a false sense of security... underneath the nice guy exterior he is still a sleaze... and ya can't keep a good sleaze down for long...

[Hitcher]

Who was the artist that the little girl and Alan were talking about last night?
René Magritte. A Belgian.

[bobsmith]

Unfortunately... my gf..... oh and stupid idiotic program with that realestate guy.... (can't think of his stupid name right now) is also shown frequently on our tv... which is why I'm on the computer so much...

[skelstar]

Maybe we should have 'worst reality tv' comp. My votes are: 'We are murdering our kids' and 'Americas next top model'. At least the first one might benefit someone.

[bobsmith]

My votes also go towards "we are murdering our kids" and "supernanny" well than again I hate all british tv programs and I think anyone who's associated with british tv programs should be shot....

Oh and I just don't get america's top model.... I didn't realise americans were so ugly??? or maybe they just have a crooked view of beauty??? I have been forced to watch that ugly program in the past.... I actually thought I saw a couple of attractive models there - and they were both gone by the end of next week.

[SPORK]

Oh gosh I love Boston Legal.

"He was seen in public calling the cat stupid"

"Alan, I want you to shoot me"
