Thread: Thoughts on Fox's Justice

I watched the pilot of Justice on Fox the other day. Kind of like thew Law and ORder stuff, in that it moves through a whole case in 42 minutes, so not really original - except told from the perspective of the defense counsel.

I kind of liked it; but then again I like all court stuff. I though the PQ on the Denver FOX affiliate was very good on my 34" HDTV; as was the sound.

Any reactions from other forum members who saw it?

I give it at least a and will watch again next week.

Haven't had a chance to watch it yet. But I will this week. Will post my thoughts... I like law & order and want to see if the ruppert fox can get any innovative ideas (thank God it won't be another government conspiracy theory program )

I take it back... I watched it yes... Not bad but not very original. I will watch again...

I thought the second episode was much better than the first. I don't like the idea of the TNT&G firm as being representative of the defense MOST defendants get (its not!), but I enjoyed the flow of the show. Good enough for another week.

watched the first one and set up the dvr to record the rest. i enjoyed the firstone. have not had a chance to watch the second one yet.

Not a bad show, I think the cast is a good ensemble of caracters. Overall I give it a 6 out of 10.

victor garber needs to do something about his hair.

Second episode was good. What I like about the show is that it gives you a non-law perspective (almost fictional) as to how cases are resolved. Anyone think high profile cases can be determined by the media? This show seems to think that this is the case.

I guess if EVERY case you had was a Los Angeles Celebrated case, it is possible you could work the media the way this show does.

The strange thing to me, is how the show utilizes the tactics of class action tort lawyers for criminal cases; things like mock juries to test out witness testimony; its just not the norm except for the OJ-type cases. But we'll get 13 or 25 episodes of this stuff (if the show survives). Yet one more distortion of the justice system; although not nearly as bad as the distortions of forensic science from CSI
