Matt Roush says...
Practicing law on TV was a relatively buttoned-down profession (think Raymond Burr’s Perry Mason) until Steven Bochco’s follow-up to Hill Street Blues exploded with sleek sexiness and hot-button relevance within the high-profile L.A. firm of McKenzie, Brackman, Chaney and Kuzak. All 172 episodes of the long-running series (1986-94) are available for streaming in a remastered format, with the original licensed music. The show made instant stars of Corbin Bernsen (as skirt-chasing divorce lawyer Arnie Becker), Harry Hamlin (as principled junior partner Michael Kuzak, wooing The Partridge Family’s Susan Dey, all grown up as Deputy D.A. Grace Van Owen) and Jimmy Smits (as idealistic associate Victor Sifuentes). L.A. Law also gave producer-writer David E. Kelley his start in TV, winning two Emmys before moving on to create Picket Fences, The Practice, Ally McBeal, Boston Legal and others. The way he disposed of villainous rainmaker Rosalind Shays (Diana Muldaur) remains one of TV’s great watercooler moments.
