1. nope--time to move on
before Spader becomes a giant blimp the size of Shatner.

I like the show, but it has been strained and bizarre lately. It feels like it jumped the shark awhile ago, but don't know exactly when.

I am enjoying the reruns from past seasons, on several channels

Now flame me--I am not a real liberal.

3. I've always liked the show and will sign the petition, but
in fact I think the execs responsible for scheduling any season's episodes have brought much of this on themselves. It seems to me each year BL comes back on later and later in terms of when the new episodes begin broadcasting, many times an episode is delayed for one reason or another, the season broadcasting ends pretty early and then you don't hear anything from them until the next year. They don't work much. I know I've kind of mentally written them off for some time now, even though I still do watch the show when I can. It's too bad really. Jerry finally made partner. I was happy about that.

6. It is my understanding the actors don't want to do it anymore, nor do the writers.
It has been promoted as its "final season" this year. They are NOT bringing it back.Too many folks want to move on.

7. Oh. Well, we can't exactly tie-up James Spader and make him perform, can we?

8. Actually, that sounds like a great story line for Boston Legal! LOL!
Edited on Wed Nov-19-08 03:51 PM by saracat
Actually, I do think Denny Crane would be amenable to the idea!
