I've said it many times......David E. Kelley is a genius & I think this show is probably the reason why. Brilliantly thought out & relatable characters who struggle with the strength of their characters over the years. You can see the carefully crafted innocence of young lawyers & prosecutors excited to be a part of the bigger picture and as the years go by watch that excited, innocence turn to jaded dread. Every story is careful to tell both sides so that as a viewer, you have the same struggle of conscience that the characters do.
I can't say enough about this show. I've watched it from episode 1, season 1, all the way through to the end, multiple times!! My all time favorite TV drama... Ever!!
