This series is not what it was at the beginning. When it began, the writing was sharp, the cast top notch, performances witty and profound and the story captivating. By the second season this Legal Drama was firmly on my Top TV List. In the third season, it began to move towards the surreal, much to my disappointment. Sharp writing was replaced with cutesy information bits and crisp legal drama became political drama that slid into the stuff of conspiracy theories. The shift continued into the forth season, hampered now by a public weariness with the horror show of public politics. And, frankly, I missed Leslie Rose’s character and the whole demographic it represented. So, it’s been a roller coaster and my ratings have followed suit, it began strong with an 8 (great) out of 10, which, by the end of the second season, had elevated to 10s (sharp, clever drama). It ebbed (6) and flowed (9) during season season three, and, now, at the end of season four, the best I can muster for it is a 7 (ok), for in my opinion it has dipped far from it’s potential.
