A welcome return to the series (for people who don't download) and if you liked the first you'll love the second even with the cast changes.

Heather Locklear and Julie Bowen, the possibilities are endless


Living TV do have a few good shows but I turned my back on them a few years ago with the over the top logos on Charmed, not watched the channel since.

Living TV appear to have an annoying habit of not showing season finale episodes, or rather when they re-run a season they do it.

I recently recorded nightly season 2 of Everwood (as there's no sign of a DVD release) and the final ep was AWOL. Also the first season on Boston Legal was re-run and finished just before Xmas, again no final episode What gives ?

Season 2 of BL so far has been good, however there are quite a few new faces without any mention of where they came from or what happened to the old cast members.

Last nights episode was the start of season 2.
The last episode of season 1 I saw on living TV. It did not have any of the new people in it and yet here they are in season 2 I have checked the episode guides on the internet and have not missed any of the shows. It seems like they have decided to just bring in some new people without any introduction

Enjoyed the episode though, NOT ENOUGH OF BIG BILL SHATNER in it though

anynews on a DVD release of the first season?

The show wasn't performing as expected for ABC and Grey's Anatomy was doing very well and kinda took the timeslot, that lead to 5 or 6 episodes planned for season1 being carried over to season2.
Monica Potter was pregnant as well which may have complicated things and with a need to spruce up the show cast changes were sort.
Perhaps if season 1 had been completed we would have seen certain characters come and go with more background info

No word on a DVD release yet

When the re-run ended on Living just before Xmas, the last episode they aired was "Let Sales Ring". The final ep from Season 1 is "Death Be Not Proud" which has Alan Shore trying to get an "innocent" man released from death row in Texas.

Living showed this episode first time round but not in the re-run. It ends on a cliffhanger, but is not continued in Season 2 (so far anyway)

I'm always concerned when I enjoy a new series that when it returns it won't be as good but I needn't have worried this time.

The courtroom scene with the mute girl that could only speak "Cello" was hilarious to watch and a brilliant idea too.

Best thing on TV at the moment IMO - the pairing of Spader and the Shat is a match made in heaven - I was laughing for the whole hour. Fantastic.

(even the new bird who replaces Monica Potter is good as well, although i could live without the pair of associates - bit annoying)
