You can stop giving Alan phobias any time now, Boston Legal.

No, really.

ETA: OMG STILL OUTRAGED. COMMENT SO I CAN CAPSLOCK AT YOU.

Oh, I'm sure I would have other complaints, except I was so ENRAGED by the LUDICROUS WATER PHOBIA that I was rendered incapable of paying attention to anything that went on. Seriously. I don't always pay close attention to storylines that don't involve Alan, but during this ep...I couldn't tell you the outcome of any of the cases. It must've been a RAGE BLACKOUT.

I dled it and...UGH. Instead of rewatching I think I'll watch the ep of TP where Alan blackmails someone and conceals evidence PRACTICALLY AT THE SAME TIME.

I'm cutting them slack because this was the last ep written before the strike. If things don't improve, though, a coup may be in order.

What are your gripes? (And do they involve GRATUITOUS HUGGING?)

What are your gripes? (And do they involve GRATUITOUS HUGGING?)

Yes, although I would have put the gratuitous, pointless and INCORRECTLY PERFORMED CPR before the hugging. But my main gripe was actually the dead teenager case where NO ONE brought up the fact that part of the responsibility of having a driver's license is having the insight and maturity to know whether or not you are in condition to operate a LETHAL WEAPON and maybe people should take some @#^&@^#)# responsibility for their own decisions. Or, if we are prepared to say that high school students aren't capable of doing that and we must look for others to blame and protect them, maybe they shouldn't be RESPONSIBLE FOR POTENTIALLY LETHAL WEAPONS!

And you really don't want to start me on that in water rescue scene...I promise.

I can kiiiind of forgive the hugging, because I imagine the writer(s) were like "Hoshit! This could be the last ep of the season! We gotta end with something spectacular...how about LOTS OF HUGGING?"

(I also imagine they'd stayed up all night working on their picket signs.)

AHAHAHAHAHA. THIS IS HOW LITTLE ATTENTION I PAID. I DID NOT KNOW THERE WAS A CAR INVOLVED. I assume she died while driving? The premise of that whole case reminded me of a stupid high school debate team bill my sister had to research--it involved starting school later so kids could get more sleep.

Wow. I honestly paid attention to none of that storyline.

OMG THAT WAS PAINFUL TO WATCH.
