Premiered last night with Katherine Heigl, Elliott Gould, Laverne Cox. and others. I thought it was interesting, another legal drama with good ensemble cast.

Reminded me of Good Wife , The Practice, Boston Legal and LA LAW, all past faves of mine.

It reminded me a little of David E Kelley's legal dramas, which I loved, but I wasn't 100% hooked. I loved seeing Elliot Gould and Dulé Hill on TV again. I have never seen Orange is the New Black, so I was interested in seeing my first show with Laverne Cox.

 

There were a lot of things I liked, but I'm not sold. It has potential and I'll definitely watch a few more episodes before I decide.

I liked it enough to watch again.  I like the cast, and that helps.

I like the cast also.  I thought the episode was rather weak.  I thought the acting was good.  I'll watch it next week and then maybe decide.

Gosh, I hate to be a Debbie Downer but I watched it for about 30 mins. and probably will not see it again.  I don't like the cast.

@Big Sister, I agree. I was looking forward to it, but there were way too many "quirky" characters and sub-plots going on. They also couldn't decide if the show was supposed to be a drama or a comedy and didn't do either very well.  Elliott Gould, who I usually like, was way overacting and then they kept throwing new plots on to "shock" us, like the last scene. The cast should have been really good, but this show, for me, was terrible. I miss my legal shows!!! And even to do a scene drinking on the rooftop only made me miss Denny Crane!

I thought the same thing, the rooftop should be reserved for Allan and Denny only!!! They would have their cigars and plan their sleepovers up there!!!

 

OMG, poor Judith Light, could she have looked any worse than what they did to her, yikes!!
