Boston Legal s3e22 - "Guantanamo By the Bay" 8MAY07 *spoilers*

One of the better episodes of the season, on the strength of the opening titles sequence alone

I recognize the judge from Ally McBeal. She played John Cage's love interest and client in Los Angeles.

Well, what did you expect? She is pushing 60 after all. You could make the same argument about Candice Bergen (who just turned 61). She looked MUCH better in Murphy Brown. In SD. On a small screen.

There were times she looked like Michael Jackson.

That being said, for her age she still looks quite good.

I loved it when Denny magically lost his pants after the door closed and then opened again.

Bernadette Peters? That's the only place you recognize her from? Yikes.

What about the other judge, AKA Gail O'Grady formerly the PA on NYPD Blue, also in late middle age but still looking very good.

I'm glad to see that everyone else enjoyed the opening as much as I did. I was afraid the anti-Hands contingent would complain.

Way too much soapbox in this episode, but as usual, great character work from Spader and Shatner. Bernadette Peters didn't look as good as she used to, but she still does it for me. She'll always be Lou Ann from Pink Cadillac to me (my god, has it been 18 years?) and Rita from Animaniacs.

I always think of her as the love interest in "The Jerk" and "Sunday in the Park with George".

And yes, the opening titles were classic.
