Most helpful review Boston Legal - Season 5

  • Boston Legal - final episode

    Rated - 2.0 stars  
    By a customer from London , 08 Jun 2009

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    How a fine show can have such a poor weird ending is so upsetting. The show has constantly pushed boundaries in both its storylines and its jokes, forcing the viewer to experience every emotion in each episode.

    However, the final episode EVER is just wacky. And not a good wacky. Not the wacky we have grown to love from Boston Legal. More and Adam Sandler style wacky. Pointless wacky.

    Maybe it coincided with the writers strike. That's the only explanation I have.

    Overall though, Boston Legal is one of the finest shows ever made. The cast is unmatched for its experience and excellent acting. The storylines are farfetched yet very, very believable.

    Just brilliant.

    Thank you Crane, Poole and Schmidt. And Alan of course.

  • Benny Hill-esque farce

    Rated - 1.5 stars  
    By AJS10 (4 reviews) from London, UK , 30 Oct 2011
    What happened? This used to be a sharp, witty, intelligent satirical drama. Now it's pure farce and unbearable to watch. What a shame.

  • Boston legal series 5

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By mo22 (2 reviews) from Airdrie , 19 Sep 2009
    If you're watching series 5, you'll already be in love with Denny, Allan, Jerry and co. and wondering how long they can keep you shedding tears of laughter and sadness. When will the decline begin?

    Not at series 5! Brilliant as ever was!

  • What a performance

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By Donensian (100 reviews) from Doncaster , 14 Sep 2009
    The final season of Boston Legal, unfortunately. As one of the characters says 'You're a hoot, that's what you are, a hoot' Brilliantly written and performed by a host of excellent actors lead by William Shatner, James Spader and Candice Bergen. I can only add that if this is a true reflection of the legal system in the USA then 'God Help America!'
