ohgreat from BLegal forum: Great DVD News - dvd in May from Fox. first David E Kelley show from the studio but Fox plans to realease more in next year or two.
-And on the same note, I was just coming over here to post this. Check the Jan. 20 item:
Also, we've got some very good news today for you fans of producer David E. Kelley's various TV series. As many of you already know, Fox DID release a "best of" DVD of Ally McBeal episodes back in 2000... but that's pretty much been it thus far. Fox DOES own the DVD release rights to all of the Kelley TV series, including Ally McBeal, Boston Public, Snoops, The Practice and the current hit Boston Legal. It turns out that the problem with getting these things on DVD is the dreaded music rights clearance issue. Popular music plays a key role (to varying degrees of prominence) in virtually all of Kelley's shows, and getting the music industry to license these songs affordably for home video is an expensive prospect. That said, our sources are telling us to expect both Ally McBeal: The Complete First Season and Boston Legal: The Complete First Season to arrive on DVD from Fox sometime in the first half of 2006.

nanasez I work in the mental health field, doing psych testing and consulting work on hard to diagnose cases. The first episode with Hands, I was thinking, "Hmm. He's kind of Aspergery." But I kind of brushed it off because I never expected a show to know anything about Asperger's, or to do it well. There was probably a bit more eye contact than one would get with an Asperger's patient - unless he's been taught by someone to look people in the eye. And that's possible. It was a great portrayal by the actor playing Hands. I just love this show so much. I love everything from the "Legal Porn" opening music, to the smokey reflections on the balcony. It's one of those rare meshings of the right actors playing fantastic characters, and with writing that is crisp and witty.
- Spader/Shatner are the heart and soul of this show, and they are the best actors on television.
