Boston Legal 11/26/2006 (S03E08) "Lincoln"

[dswallow]

This show's becoming somewhat tedious.

It used to be pretty imaginative. Now it just seems like every storyline is incestuous to some previous storyline; they can't come up with anything really new.

It was tough to watch tonight... almost like they specifically catered to the DH audience. Coho offers nothing to this show! Get him OFF.

And, yeah, even though I am also finding this show a bit tedious, it still makes me laugh...

[busyba]

WTF was that? They migrated from absurdist to surreal.

I did enjoy seeing the Nancy Grace close get hers though. Pity that the original is still breathing....

[busyba]

I am however looking forward to seeing how the plotline of Denise's libido plays out.... :D

[vikingguy]

I don't know I got some good laughs that is all I care about when I watch boston legal. I did enjoy lincoln killing again the whole practice swings made me chuckle as a bonus we got rid of the anoying reporter. It was nice to see hands do well in the court room maybe this will be a major break through for him. I do admit I got a big chuckle when denise was talking to shirley about even denny looking good and alan popping his head out at the end with that look. Also alan holding up que cards for denny was pretty damn funny.

The folding shovel was interesting...

"If this were a movie you'd hear an ominous chord right about now."

<Ominous chord plays>

:up:

The "Female Jerry Espenson" was an interesting twist too, and they couldn't have cast the part any better. Missi Pyle rocks! :up:

I've never seen Boston Legal but the previews during DH made it look really bizarre.

BL has always had a slight surrealist edge to it, but this episode was far more bizarre than anything they had done before. It looks like DEK has got his full 'Ally' on. Unfortunately.

I loved seeing Gracie Jane get whats coming to her. Made the whole show... Now if they would only get rid of Coho in an even better way...

[milo99]

the thing that bugged me about this episode was that now we have yet another guy after Shirley. I mean come on, seriously. Having Alan and Denny bickering over her was entertaining, but Coho too? Candace Bergen was never that hot to begin with, i don't understand why she's being idolized liked this.

I actually kinda like Coho. The fighting was amusing to me...

overall, it wasn't too bad an episode. although i AM getting tired of these current story lines - enough with the midget, enough w/ lincoln (although this one is at least becoming a bit more interesting), enough with Hands, although his case is pretty interesting, but that could have been done on its own, why have Hands be involved in this? How could this guy EVER have his own law practice when they're making him so damn incompetent on his own?

oh.. and a naughty Denise... *sigh* :o

[jr461]

I thought it was OK. I agree, enough midget and enough Coho. Also in the camp that doesn't understand how all these much younger guys are after Shirley. Why aren't they chasing Denise!!? :confused: I do like Lincoln, however.

I've found her attractive since Murphy Brown :D

I must be more careful about the juxtaposition of random thoughts around here! :)

Lincoln snuck into her hotel room by pretending to be the room service guy and then pulled a folding shovel out from under the cart and swatted her in the back of the head, killing her just like he did the judge.

His motivation (besides just being the attention whore that he is) stemmed from the remarks she had made about him on her show.

Her tirade actually diverged from her regular "guilty until they get away with it" philosophy and into things like "you know he's a murderer because he's a homosexual".

Since her murder was staged as comedy, it was necessary from a dramaturgical standpoint that we wouldn't mind watching her be killed. Apparently the powers that be felt that her character wasn't reprehensible enough for those purposes, so it was necessary to make her a homophobe first. :rolleyes:

[Mikeyis4dcats]

yay!!

Whatever works to get her off the show is OK with me. :p
