The Practice virgin’s diary – The more clients they get off, the more crimes those same clients get charged for

(Season 3, Episodes 13-16) I’m still no Ellenor fan, but she’s at the core of several stories that are beginning to shape The Practice into less of a one-off law procedural, and more of a serial drama. She’s crazy, don’t get me wrong, but she drives a lot of interesting plot. And she adds the […]

The Practice virgin’s diary – Enough with the dead babies!

(Season 3, Episodes 9-12) Seriously, The Practice uses dead babies as their tiny violin. As well they should play like that, don’t get me wrong, but how much more can I take? Why not give us a good, mutilated, absolutely horrifying, fully grown adult murder victim for a change? Please? But hey … at least no […]

The Practice virgin’s diary – Tony Danza looks to bring Donnell and Co. to its knees

(Season 3, Episodes 5-8) Did you know that Lindsay was a woman? Or that Eugene and Rebecca were black? Okay, I did too, but this was the first time I got to watch The Practice on my TV, instead of off of Hulu on my computer. Thanks, FX, for airing them at 7AM on the […]

The Practice virgin’s diary – Anderson Pearson, snooty professor at law, goes to trial for murder

(Season 3, Episodes 1-4) Thanks to everyone who voted, and who shared their opinions last time; your voices have been heard. I think I’m going to try continuing this on a weekly basis, but I will see how my new TV load holds up; presumably, if I begin to crumble under the weight, you are […]

The Practice virgin’s diary – Great guests, so-so cases, and Jimmy in a death spiral

(Season 2, Episodes 25-28) Not surprising that Donnell and Associates is beginning to take on a new look. I’m actually surprised that it took this long for the little cash and respect that they’ve earned to begin to transform the place. Did I expect it would involve reorganization? No — I just thought that they might […]

The Practice virgin’s diary – Toilets, purse-snatching, clowns, and Richard Schiff

(Season 2, Episodes 21-24) I can still stack the complaints I have about the show all the way past the roof of the nearby 42-story building, but I’m also really enjoying The Practice. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve said, “Oh, wow!” of late. Jimmy and Ellenor haven’t changed, and I still think […]

The Practice virgin’s diary – Helen takes on Donnell and Associates

(Season 2, Episodes 17-20) That is, she takes them on in what should have amounted to the most wildly appealed case of judicial and legal misconduct that I’ve ever seen on TV. Opposing lead counsels were sleeping together; one of Bobby’s co-counsel and Helen are best friends; Helen interceded on Jimmy’s behalf when he had […]
