Sneaky Political Time Capsule

[DKosty123 · 7/10 · 6 June 2015]

In a series loaded with political issues, this one might just be the surprise of them all. Alan Shore has to defend a woman fired because of a political disagreement with her boss from an "at will job". There is a secret code in this one as this script goes out of it's way to Call a Hillary Clinton supporter "dumb and "stupid" in court.

The way it is done is obvious as a campaign aide for Barack Obama in his own Party.

With another election cycle coming and this episode showing how dumb and stupid Clinton supporters are. If people review this, They might change who they are supporting in this election.

Shore loses this case so the message is Clinton Supporter is dumb and stupid, it's a real hoot.

He Fired a Gun in the Courtroom

[Hitchcoc · 5/10 · 5 August 2022]

I'm not going into any details other than the two premises introduced in this episode are ridiculous. A woman fired by a jerk boss for being stupid. A man charged with manslaughter because he killed a man who was convulsing for 30 minutes on the execution table because of the incompetence of the state. And Denny fired another gun in the courtroom. He should have been put in jail awaiting serious charges. He gets modest contempt. What a joke this show became at the end.

Another silly premise

[frank-hood · 4/10 · 22 June 2022]

A prison guard at an execution is appalled to see a lethal injection botched with the condemned thrashing in agony for over 20 minutes. The guard finally enters the chamber and shoots the condemned man in the head.

Then the state charges the guard with murder! For shooting a condemned man in the process of an attempted execution! That's just too stupid for words. Yes, he would have gotten fired, but it WAS an execution of a legally condemned man.

Yes, that allows Denny to save the day by inspiring Sack to turn the case around with a clever twist, but we're really supposed to believe that the state charged a man with murder for carrying out a legally sanctioned execution even if in an illegal way?

The writers aren't even trying. With constant verbal winks that break the 4th wall by reminding us this is the last season, they're apparently in it just for the jokes and the paycheck.
