BOSTON LEGAL SAGGING

Caught another ep of Boston Legal. Maybe it has been doing this sort of thing all along, but it's Ally McBeal-ish seams are showing. This is the one which starts with Allan Shore wearing a blinking star on his head as a Christmas decoration and ends with Denny Crane and Allan Shore sticking cigars in their ears. C'mon, David E. Kelley. That's just silly. It's not silly-truthful. It's just damn silly. And, in between, Tara pretends to be a stewardess to trick opposing counsel into revealing the details of his case -- a week after Monica Potter's character pretended to be a psychiatrist. Don't any of these guys actually practice law? I can see why the show's sagging. It's just too hard to suspend disbelief -- and in a law show, I'm not sure you should have to suspend disbelief!
