Somewhere in between
By David Ward from East Yorkshire, England , 18 Apr 2006[Highly rated reviewer]
Although there was a steady decline in the quality of 'Ally McBeal' over the years, the final three episodes offer some sort of reminder of what it used to bring to the T.V, which (at the time) nothing else did. Although there is no definite 'happy' ending, these final moments do bring together the past nicely, and you feel as though the time was ready to say goodbye to the show.- Was this review helpful to you?

(10)Too Much Change ... And Too Quickly
By Macclad2010 (6 reviews) , 17 Apr 2013I've only watched the first few episodes of series 5, so my review is based on this ... This series has dropped a couple of regulars without explanation and introduced 4 new ones. The early episodes primarily feature 3 of the newbies & Ally, with many of the established characters largely sidelined to a point that it almost feels like a spin-off series. Appreciate that characters will come & go and change is inevitable. But this has made the mistake of introducing too much change too quickly, and I didn't find the inclusion of Dame Edna in 2 episodes amusing but rather irritating. Will no doubt watch the rest of the series at some point but am in no hurry!- Was this review helpful to you?

Genuinely sad when this came to an end
By Gray2 (198 reviews) from London, England , 20 Jul 2012Although I caught up with Ally McBeal about 10 years late, I've really enjoyed watching the 5 seasons in sequence in recent months. The characters are larger than life but all lovable. The series is so well written by David E. Kelly and I was sad to get to the end of the final episode and hear 'You stinker!' for the last time...- Was this review helpful to you?

Very Different To Series 1-4
By schumi2 (27 reviews) from Romford , 15 Nov 2008Series 5 of Ally sees virtually nothing of Ling, nothing at all of Renee or Georgia, and towards the end, less of Ally and especially John Cage.
What it does however, is focus more on Richard Fish and bring down his emotional barriers, removing the chauvinistic side slowly and revealing a guy who is just as sensitive as he is good at running a business.
There's some great new characters as in Glen and Jenny, and a great situation that arises from the first 6 episodes. Raymond makes an excellent chauvinist, Nelle is brought back down to earth.
Im not too sure if the inclusion of Dame Edna Everage taints and ridicules the last series, but at least he/she gets some fantastic lines...in fact probably gets the best script of all.
Less court cases, and more focused on the characters themselves.
The last episode is simply excellent and brought together an amazing series that was just starting to lose its way.- Was this review helpful to you?

The end of the road... :(
By Rosalie123 (2 reviews) from London , 04 Apr 2008This season had only about half of the original cast, replacing those who had left with new characters who were difficult to warm towards, given they only had a few episodes to sell themselves! However, I LOVE the whole series and am very sad to see it all end. I will miss them all!!! :(- Was this review helpful to you?
