Boston Legal - Boston Legal was born out of the chaos that was The Practice's final season, where due to budget constraints, most of the cast was fired. James Spader's Alan Shore and William Shatner's Denny Crane were the show's golden couple and pseudo-romantic couple, ending each episode with a scotch and cigar on the terrace. The show was unapologetically zany and self-referential, often drawing attention to the fact that it was a television show.

Length of show's run: 5 seasons
