If the show Ally McBeal is the slightly ditzy yet pretty teen sister, The Practice would be its handsome brooding older brother. I am currently rewatching this show, and it amazes me how it doesn't look dated at all.
Each and every member of Bobby's law firm (and also Helen from the DA's office) brings something to the table (yes, even you Lucy).
Obviously, some legal things were not legal yet back then (marijuana, same sex marriage), but the general issues are still the same (good vs bad, morality vs ethics, duty vs. heart). This show clearly resonates the law and the people who are passionate about it. I miss shows like these. Today, we are bombarded by superheroes and pointless laugh track comedy shows which does nothing to enhance one's sense of self. Sad.
In a perfect world, Mr. Kelley would do another "The Practice" show (same legal universe with some of the old characters brought in as mentors). That would be awesome. =)
