@ brilliant argument… it’s literally public knowledge that the practice was going to end, which is why they wrote the final season the way they did… And Dylan McDermott left the show because they couldn’t afford him anymore, not because Spader “took over.” 😂😂😂
The first maybe four or five times I watched this, I was thinking about the drama or the storyline or Bobby's firm ending or Eugene's anger and I didn't think about the argument.

James Spade no one can ever touch your brilliance in Boston Legal. I wish I could into Blacklist but could not get beyond Season 2. I worry about your health issues and why the excess weight. Please take care of yourself!!! Abuela Lupe 76 y.o.
yeah Season 8 of the Practice is really just Season 0 of Boston Legal. I didn't learn that until after I had finished Boston Legal, and I had to go back and watch that season of The Practice. Made me enjoy Boston Legal even more.
damn right! respect to his work, and charisma, However, i have had a one hour documentary made with a talkshow host, and i know half the effort and genius goes to the screenwriters and producer
I think Alan Shore is one of the best written characters in all of fiction. He is a bad good guy, as it were, and that is extremely hard to write well and to get the audience's sympathies.
@@lawrence142002 i don't quite see him as an antihero. He is still essentially a good guy. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid are antiheroes. Maybe the Oceans 11 guys too.
As much as I love Raymond Reddington as a character, I still believe that Alan Shore is a better written character overall. Unlike Red, whose background is shaped by extenuating circumstances, Alan is naturally a loose cannon with all the complexity you could ever want in a character. I love them both equally, but finding characters with as many dimensions as Alan despite receiving no meaningful influence from the plot is extremely rare.
Spader's level of delivery is near unsurpassed. His character is so complex. Utterly ruthless yet almost always on a moral grounding. Him destroying Jerry, was a low point, and he realised just how far he went. He knew he was right, but he also knew how wrong he was...
One of the best law shows ever.. and all the issues that they argue about.. plus the a great team of actor lawyers.. amazing show.. very real cases.. brilliant
that guy is one of the best actors i have ever watched on any screen. I have never liked the law/legal type of shows but i watched Boston legal just because of him. Oh and the blacklist...
This speech was more than talent, what was portrayed in his speech I would view as truth to the core... just by observing the general public reveals the psychology of the system, and ‘how’ people tend to respond especially when under conflict or an adverse situation.
If I ever needed a lawyer(s), I'd want Alan Shore, Denny Crane, Mike Ross, and Harvey Specter. Oh yeah, and Tara and Donny waiting in the wings to provide support.
I think I’ve watched this scene like 200x. I can watch and listen to Alan shore talk all freaking day!!!! Give the man his damn pie Eugene!!!!! ALAN SHORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You forgot Denny Crane, Mike Ross and Harvey Specter. But yeah, Alan Shore is one of the Best. And the Real Life, Jerry Spence on whom Denny Crane is based. He NEVER LOST A CASE. Would make a HELL of a Law Firm, if you included Jessica Pearson and Louise Litt (if you could keep his head in the game and "manage" his insecurities).
Motions to Quash. This reminds me how I once found it prudent to ask my medical professional how they handle subpoenas and requests for information. At one point in my life, I needed to feel reassured my professional had that motion ready to print. Mad world.
He's a great lawyer, provided you don't hear the other person's summation. All you get to do is see them flop and twitch in their seats in terror and embarrassment.
After 6 seasons of 'the blacklist' i have come to respect James Spader as one of the best method actors of his era, not in the shadow of Deniro, in fact, Better, on a Par with Kevin Spacey (minus the paedophile bit)
Funny enough they offered Spacey the part of Reddington, but he turned it down - as did John Malkovich. I don't see Spacey doing the part as well, but Malkovich would have been a fascinating Reddington. As would a younger Walken.
I was so ready to be rid of Bobby and Lindsay. All their whining and bickering just made them both so unbearable. I had actually begun to root against both of them. Their departure couldn't come soon enough. That final season was like a breath of fresh air.
haha, but it might be fans of the show unhappy with the Season 8 turn to fantasy and absurdism. Alan Shore's antics should have triggered the duty to report, the sassing of judges should have landed him in courthouse lockup, etc. That the old show wove its dramas within a relatively realistic depiction of the law was a major attraction, and it was sad to see that depiction scrapped in Season 8.
Sadly Alan was right about the firm not being ethical and literally being in the business of setting criminals free. It had always been like that and even Bobby Donnell before he left and decided to never step foot in another courtroom again became racked with guilt and shame for his chosen profession. Eugene also had doubts but was too proud to admit it.
Can't get Hulu in the UK. With the popularity of The Blacklist and James Spader you would think they'd take the initiative and make these series available.
I felt like Shore didn't even mind being fired. He probably expected it. It was the underhanded way in which they did it, with their attempts at secrecy and such. Add in that slap-in-the-face severance and the war was inevitable. No way Alan was going out like that. If Eugene had just been up front about it and given Alan the fair, reasonable severance he deserved, their never would have been a lawsuit.
There is so much raw truth about our justice system and the roles of attorneys within it in this scene, most people would shut down their brains rather than dare to confront it directly. It IS adversarial, and the truth is only sought when it can yield the desired outcome for one party. In a perfect world, the justice system would seek only the truth, always. The guilty would never go free, the innocent would never be wrongly convicted. How do we get there?
This show reminds me of why I don't watch much tv anymore, in comparison 99% of shows now have meaningless dialogue dispersed with implausible actions that loose my interest in minutes. I find fps shooters more mentally stimulating than what these hacks pull out of their poo shoots.
It always got me that he never went after Jimmy, the biggest hypocrite of all- the guy who broke privilege, who gambled with his clients money- even after Jimmy badmouthed him on the stand. And Eugene-mr ethics, trying to poach Alan’s rich client and slandering him, the same guy who covered for Bobby and Lindsay’s killings. Anything Shore did, he did for a good cause and it benefited the firm. Hard to believe ethics was so important to that firm by that point, given everything THEY did
Alan never tried to smear them, because he knew that was their plan against him. He constantly presented himself as a friendly rogue to the jury, he never spoke badly against them. He merely pointed out that they didn't meet the merits of their own argument. By NOT playing dirty, THEY looked worse for making "HE'S A BAD GUY" their only leg to stand on.
By now I have seen enough American serial tv shows to be convinced that the writers of stuff like "Boston Legal", "The Newsroom", "House of Cards" and so on are really only trying to tell the American people the truth about the system and the world they're living in. Trying to warn them about the dangers of this system.
Victor Mace No. "the practice" ran for 8 seasons: From the late 90s past 9/11. "Boston PUBLIC" was abt a schoolboard & ran from 2000-2005. "Boston LEGAL" ran for 4 or 5 seasons(?). i just remember it ending in '08 & how i cried my eyes out. #FLAMINGOS
I was so disappointed in Eugene young and the others for being so harsh towards Allen shore; if Eugene just dropped his pride a little bit and would have been more understanding of him and gotten to know him a little bit better he probably would have found that he had more in common with him than what he originally thought, it was such ashame that their partnership got ugly like that and ended the way it did but they essentially got what they deserve for being hypocritical, they constantly scolded him but they had no problems taking the money from what his antics were bringing in to the firm How do you use the same tactics another person use but don't allow them to do the same? that whole excuse of "do as I say not as I do" crap they try to use to stop him from having his hard earned money was just plain wrong which is why I was on Allen's side throughout the whole ordeal not to mention that he was my favorite character in both the practice and Boston legal!💯😁😉👍
the producers, directors, writers could NEVER have found a more superb actor to portray Alan Shore than James Spader…he is absolutely flawless.
