They just showed the second episode of this new series last week and I'm thoroughly hooked on it now! It's on Mondays on NBC at 10pm/9 Central time. It's Kathy Bates as a bored but off-beat patent lawyer who leaves the firm and opens her own store-front law firm in a really bad neighborhood, complete with local characters. It's both funny and moving at the same time.
I very, VERY rarely watch network TV and I only watched it the first time because Kathy Bates starred in it but I won't miss it now! I LOVE the character of Harry (Harriett). Kathy Bates was on the late night talk shows last week and was saying that the part of Harry was originally written for a man, but she loved the character and stepped right in to the part and wouldn't let them change a thing! In last weeks show she was, at one point, talking very eloquently and professionally with a client, then the next minute she's whipping a pistol out of her desk drawer and shooting a rat that ran across the floor! I really hope this one doesn't go the way of many other series that I really liked ... as soon as I really lilke them, they're cancelled!
