If only lawyers would stand up more and argue their cause...He is just as good in “The Blacklist”! He is just an amazing actor in anything he does😊

It's one of my all-time favorites. One part is that it's extremely political, so it turns off conservative audiences. I don't give a shit about them, but that is a lot of people that will not watch it. It also got its time slot eaten up. After its wildly successful first season, Gray's Anatomy's first season got Boston Legal's time slot the following season. Changing air time can kill a show. The third season premiered in a new time slot as well, because the third season it lost its time slot to Desperate Housewives. After multiple time slot shuffles...hard for a show to survive.

If child rape was punishable by death it would be more than likely that the offender would kill their victim's so they couldn't report. What would they have to lose? Murder and rape would both be death penalty crimes. Why not murder to keep them quiet
@donpatterson48293 жыл бұрын
Yep. The death penalty isn't a deterrent at all, it just does what you said. Encourages more drastic actions in order to get away with crimes. No-one can report the crime, if there's nobody TO report the crime. A horrific sentiment but... Prison is a far greater and scarier punishment for child rapists and sexual predators in general. Prisons are infamously dangerous and scary for sexual predators, they tend to have quite the hellish time. It's, frankly, pretty excellent. Give them life without parole in a medium security prison, where there are more likely to be dark corners tucked out of the way.

How this guy never made it into a Quentin Tarantino movie is beyond me
Ever since I finished Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, I've always wondered what an interaction between Alan Shore and Saul Goodman would be like.
I'm watching Boston Legal for the first time I know I'm late to the party but what a great show funny William Shatner's phone keeps on going off in that courtroom
Truer words about the Supreme Court and their criminal ways.
Is there any show James Spader doesn’t carry? I recently discovered this having seen him on the Blacklist and he is so good. Is there anyone on his level?
I miss Allan Shore on TV he's too much😀😀😀
He’s on the blacklist at the moment
I am waiting for him vs harvey specter
Spader was born to play Alan Shore. This is what real acting is about. When you deliver pages and pages of dialogue without bitching about it.
Excellent site
Favorite part of the monologue, "you people aren't too hot!" Hahaha
Excellent ❤️😍😍
ty ty ty
What is the name of this series
What magazine was Justice Thomas reading?A luxury vacation brochure perhaps? Talk about prescient!
Alan Shore has two more houses to bark in , Legislative and Executive
He is awesome. Here in Boston legal or blacklist wonderful monologues.
This show's portrayal of the Supreme Court is actually not far off from how it is today. No... I was wrong. It is much worse today.
I love him in blacklist and everywhere
Mr. Reddington
Phenomenal acting skills, I'm thrilled
If child rape was punishable by death it would be more than likely that the offender would kill their victim's so they couldn't report. What would they have to lose? Murder and rape would both be death penalty crimes. Why not murder to keep them quiet
Yep. The death penalty isn't a deterrent at all, it just does what you said. Encourages more drastic actions in order to get away with crimes. No-one can report the crime, if there's nobody TO report the crime. A horrific sentiment but... Prison is a far greater and scarier punishment for child rapists and sexual predators in general. Prisons are infamously dangerous and scary for sexual predators, they tend to have quite the hellish time. It's, frankly, pretty excellent. Give them life without parole in a medium security prison, where there are more likely to be dark corners tucked out of the way.
Your theory is totally wrong because it does not work the way uou think. Child does not tell in every case who raped him/her so your point is not valid. Raping a young innocent soul before it groom should be death by hanging kn public nothing less than that period.
@@asadsyed1731 You are letting emotions get in the way of logical thought, I agree with Don. I don't think it would be a deterrent, it would cause offenders to likely murder the poor child.
@@asadsyed1731 You are not thinking rationally. From you name you most likely believe in Sharia law, no wonder.
@@PrimalInfinity Depending on incarcerated individuals to carry out the justice that you are against is an absurdity.
Tone-policing should never be a part of a judge's job.
Respect for the Court (in bearing, if not in one's heart) is kind of a prerequisite for a civilized trial. This clip makes great TV, but if a lawyer said that shit to *any* judge (let alone the Supreme Court) they'd be thrown in jail for contempt and potentially face sanctions from the Bar.
@@tehcoolemu Yea this clip started out pretty good, but the random personal attacks on the justices were ludicrous and would of course never be permitted nor would any sane lawyer go that route. A shame they couldn't keep it somewhat "realistic".
@@hungryhungryhippos370 but then we have alan shore
Please where can i get this???
This man could spit some lines.
"Husband and mad cow " i miss this show.
Is this a show or movie !?
What an actor...... What a character in Boston legal....
James " Ultron” Spader
Spader deserves all the awards this world has to offer
Would never happen irl..which is why it's brilliantly hilarious tv. 😄
Rewatching this show currently and 3:38 seems relevant now... I miss RBG.
Best actors in the last 25 years
Oh Mr. Grey!
I know this is kind of fan fiction... but I like it
IF ONLY Alan knolew about Harlan Crow and Clarence Thomas when this was filmed.
In the dictionary, under the definition of "Chutzpah", it says to refer to this scene. Alan Shore is providing the example.
That's Raymond Redington
Reddington was a lawyer back then????
Pliz what is the name of the series, I want to watch it too... This man is finest almost like me
Boston Legal
Damn Spader Goin OFF
I've loved him since Pretty in Pink. He played the rich punk perfectly.
Great drama, but so unrealistic to how the Supreme Court is. In real life, the debate is so much less impassioned speech.
He’s remarkably a very good actor
Still relevant today!
I’m China this show is called Boston Regal.
Nice
This is why well paid, brilliant HUMAN writers and actors are required. They must win this union battle.
And if he only knew about Thomas's conflict of interest that was discovered recently, bought and paid for seat.
Such a moving little speech he gave to the Court. Pure emotion, absolutely nothing to do with the law, and not even remotely close to what a SCOTUS argument looks and sounds like. Legally a sham, but great acting though. Good TV show.
A true trouble maker 😂😂😂😂
