Boston Legal - Season 2

by Mark Labowskie

[9.Jan.07] :. Boston Legal, fashioned out of the decaying corpse of The Practice, alternates its vaudevillian cases with ones involving pungent social issues.

 

Starting Over (1979)

by Samantha Bornemann

[7.Jul.05] :. Starting Over captures the sting of loving someone despite knowing he is going to break your heart.

 

The In-Laws (2003)
