They finally gave Alan a Real Court Case! After most of the season is over, they finally gave Alan a real court case!

And not a sign of Hands!

I've always adored the Matlock trick! :)

Mom and I are watching this on netflix-- we're about 5 episodes in on season 1, and loving it.

What constitutes a real court case?

[gategrrl.livejournal.com]

This season started out with the Big Case belonging to a new character - sort of Alan Shore Redux, only a younger guy.

Alan was hardly seen in the courtroom at all, and when he was, it was always with Hands, the lawyer who has Asbergers syndrome.

I guess my excitement was because, as wonderful as Hands is played by his actor, I was getting tired of him ALWAYS being the reason Alan went into court for most of the season.

In this case, also, it was a MURDER case, which is where Alan really seems to show his stuff, and the writers seem to enjoy putting in twists of character, and twisted characters.
