Review: Just Legal 101 – 103
And another one goes down. Airing on the WB, this Jerry Bruckheimer production got the axe with one episode more under its belt than the similarly canceled Head Cases over at Fox. Also similar as in a strange pairing of two lawyers of different character. Pairing an aging (and expanding down under) Don Johnson with the geeky Jay Baruchel (Million Dollar Baby) is a risky choice, considering this falls out of the WB’s youngster target. Story-wise, it was an okay choice. Decent acting, decent stories, and a tiny bit of character development. You’d think that with the competition out of the way (only in a figuratively way, as it aired on another night), they’d give this lowly watched series a little bit more time to settle. Combine it with the fact the slot will be taken over by unregular scheduled programming, and you wonder what’s going on.
