what ever happened to that show? It kind of disapeared after Nicky Katt left.

I used to watch it, but it totally disappeared they either never aired the last few episodes or aired them at weird times with no ads. It had lost most of its interest, but it should have had a decent send off.


I stand corrected, you are as vapid as they say.

It was cancelled early last year. Since it filmed under 100 episodes, it is not eligible for syndication.

I watched the show for the first two seasons, but then stopped watching it regularly. It jumped the shark when Nicky Katt and Jessalyn Gilsig left.

I remember they started out a season with a girl giving birth in the bathroom and getting arrested for leaving her baby in the toilet, and then never mentioned it again.

Now that is true, MEF. I still wish they had given it some kind of closure.

Yes, I agree. Even though I was not watching the show at the time, I hate it when any show just abruptly ends. At least give it a proper send-off.

I used to adore that show. It was the one hour my family could all sit in a room together and agree on something. Mr. Guber freaked me out sometimes, though. And the lady with the prosthetic hand.

Yep, Kathy Baker -- she was great.

I really enjoyed it until Katt left; he was the one that kept me watching, and when they brought in Tamyra, Jeri Ryan, and Joey Mac, I lost interest.

I detested Jeri Ryan on this show, she stole so much of the spotlight with her totally uninteresting character.
I really liked how they gave Guber a character arc, so I hated him in the begining but loved him near the end.
Kathy Baker was fabulous!
I also lost interest when Katt left, though.

The last season was really awful.

It was fun to see Chi McBride reprise his Stephen Harper character on Boston Legal earlier this year. In the episode, he was trying to ban Fox News Channel from being broadcast in the school, since it was right wing propaganda. One of the students was suing to stop the ban.
