Harry's Law (2011–2012)
9/10
Who's Harry? Harriet is no "Korn" Here ****
18 January 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Given its liberal slant, "Harry's Law" promises to be an interesting show. When patent law gets her depressed, Harriet shows her boredom and promptly is fired. That's probably the best thing that has happened to her. Opening up a store with unlikely people, including someone she fought a patent case with, Harriet soon finds herself being caught up in a protection racket and defending someone whose on trial for buying drugs a third time. Along the way, her associate defends the protection con artist when the latter shoots a person holding up a store.

Liberalism abounds here, but thanks to the fine acting of Kathy Bates and the great writing, the show succeeds. It is well paced and Bates, as always, delivers her lines like the pro she is.

The nickname of Harry is inane, but who cares? We are about to embark on something really good.
