Review of Picket Fences

Picket Fences (1992–1996)
10/10
"Douglas Wambaugh for the Defense!" on TNN. (Cheers & Applause)
28 May 2001
Just after "Boston Public" wrapped with Kathy Baker held hostage in the basement, I wondered if I'd ever see "Dr. Jill Brock" in action again. A chance scan of TNN's weekday schedule brought a pleasant surprise: Five days of "Picket Fences"! (Time for the VCR and popcorn as the search for "The Serial Bather" starts again.) First one seen: A "Show & Tell" turned into a hunt for "The Green Bay Chopper," with Kenny and Max drawing on two Krycek-like FBI agents.

Judge Bone got a rest in this episode, but Douglas Wambaugh took on the Feds...and won! ("What law school did YOU go to?" "Your Honor, he's down to MY level!") Carter Pike's finest hour with The Hand brought the case to an automatic fire end, where "CSI"-like work tied it all up...though Max did get shaken up at the end.
