Ashes To Ashes

Y'know with one of these You'll never miss an episode of LA Law.

Ah yes, LA Law, one of the under rated show from the late 1980s which crossed over into the 1990s, yet struggled at the end its eight year run to remain relevant in changing times.

The show revived Harry Hamlin and Susan Dey's careers and turned Corbin Bernsen into his a star for his lovable rogue Arnie Becker, a number arguably as famous as Gordon Gecko to epitomes the winner takes all in love and business that is supposed to have been a touchstone for the 1980s.

The show was co-written by wretched bleeding heart David E Kelley who took LA Law's trite and true formula for dramas Boston Legal, Boston Public and The Practice.



Ye gods! The things you find looking at IMDB. Kelley is remaking the fantastic, cop/sci fi drama Life On Mars for American audiences. Gag, gag, shudder!

Don't waste your time. See the original:
