law on tv

I've been keeping my comments to myself regarding David E. Kelley's short lived television show Girls' Club, but if the failure of that show gives him more time to focus upon his writing to The Practice, than maybe his spectacular failure (the show was cancelled after two episodes aired) may turn out to be a good thing. A New York Times columnist contacted Kelley, and wrote about what we might see (NY Times, reg. req'd) on the show this season. One topic that will come up frequently is the erosion of civil rights after September 11th. I'm interested in seeing how that plays out. This weekend, the show takes on the Catholic Church.
