Exactly what the wife and I said.

One of my favourite programmes.
I think it’s almost got an innocence to it.
It’s a bit like BGT on Valium but with talent.

Finished The Lincoln Lawyer . Can't wait for S5.
Someone said backthread that to get interested they have to either love or loathe a character. Plenty to love in Haller's team but the Prosecution lawyer, Berg, stole the biscuit for loathing. I said to my wife "I so want to slap her face with a wet fish!".
Which means..... she owned the part.

Did you not think she was too much of a cartoon character? She was so horrible I'm not sure it was believable, she wasn't for me
In previous series the prosecutor was more balanced, although clearly still the enemy.
One of the grey areas for me, frequently Holler and team are defending clearly guilty people and are celebrating wins with technicalities. It's fiction and I enjoy it but I'm sitting less and less on their side.

For those who haven't seen Vernon Kay and his new quiz show "Do you know your place" - don't!! He has 3 unknown celebs answering stupid questions that are only loosely related to the place that is featured. Didn't help with the first question being "where is Whitby?" and one contestant was over 200 miles away in the middle of Bedfordshire, nowhere near the coast. And it didn't get any better after that.

Mr Mercedes on Netflix, had no idea what it was about and the first 10mins traumatised the wife.

We started watching this last week, it’s ok so far (2/3 way through S1) but it’s very cheesy at times.

Cruella DeVille played perfectly
Your last point, isn't that the case for all defence lawyers? They expose weaknesses in the opposition who are not doing their job well. They may not respect or believe their client but they are trying to establish a successful track record for their own business.
Murky worlds.
@Sid Rixon IV very murky, very immoral. Not at all heroic, unless their client is innocent.
I found at times in the last series that Mickey and co were difficult to root for on certain occasions. Their joy at finding a loophole for an obviously guilty client, not satisfying to watch. But then I remind myself it's a fun TV show

I am a bit late to mention this as the final is next weekend.
I have been watching The Floor (ITV)
Something different in the quizzing genre.

If you were guilty of a serious, or henious crime would you not wish to be defended by the best lawyer you could muster?
Some of the most eminent and respected lawyers are defence lawyers. I just see their role is to ensure prosecution lawyers present a faultless, watertight case.

What on please?
I think a moral discussion on this is for another thread

The first season is really good but it goes downhill rapidly after that. We gave up on it midway through the third season.
