Synopsis

Kate Reed is a firm believer that justice can always be found – even if it's not always in the courtroom. Once a lawyer at her family's esteemed San Francisco firm, Kate's frustration with the legal system led her to a new career as a mediator. Thanks to her innate understanding of human nature, thorough legal knowledge, and wry sense of humor, Kate is a natural when it comes to dispute resolution. Except, it seems, when it comes to conflicts in her own life.

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
seeinblackandwhite-15-497064 Exactly as the title states, I want to like this show, I really do. I feel as though the premise has potential and the show itself showed a little potential at first. However, I find that that it has a nearly unwatchable quality about it, while the lead actress is decent, and the supporting cast is as well, they seem to need more direction, and they are working with some extremely over clichéd writing from time to time.Unfortunately, every element of the show seems to suffer from being too much. The plot of each episode tries to cram too much in to one story line which makes every one seem convoluted and adds to the cliché. Each character seems to have defining traits, but the defining traits are overpowering to human traits. The lead character is too good at everything and while I like that she has spunk, there is point where spunk becomes annoying and she crosses over occasionally. The side characters, though most seem to be adequately acted, are either very bland or overbearing and none of them seem terribly original.I wish I could say better things about this show because I like Sarah Shahi and I honestly think she is much better than what this show ended up being.
Edward Paisley Finally a show that is new, fresh and more unpredictable than anything on TV. Our legal system is not about truth or even justice it is all about the law and which lawyers best spin it to their advantage. This show produces fair and just settlements that benefit all and at the least cost, not the pompous arrogant people TV portrays lawyers to be. (I know one show says that attorneys MAKE the laws.) I know there are times it gets to be a little sappy but I am tired of shows with all the blood, guts and bodies. It even gives sappiness a fresh spin. The characters have real personality, but that is USA network's motto. To top this all off Sarah Shahi is super-hot. I hope this show runs for many seasons and not just 10 episodes so far......
walton-j6 Sexy! sassy! brilliant! funny! If your reading this and want know if this show is worth watching, them the only thing i can say is; yes, yes, yes, yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sarha Shahi is superb, she brings Kate Reed to life and the rest of the cast only amplify how good this show is. So guys keep up the good work. You, yes you, reading this stop now go watch enjoy you want be sorry. It only took minuets to become a fan. The fact that the character Kate Reed left her father's Law firm to do something different, is what makes this show different from other legal drama's. It has given us a kind of story, instead of it being fort in a court room, Kate does her utmost to keep out of court. Her tactic for doing this is quiet simple. Sit down shut up and listen we're not leaving till this sorted. Kate has a nice signature"the whistle"you'll know it and start to like it. It will stop you cold!! Now if you're still reading this you really need to stop. Go watch and enjoy this brilliant show:)
janzst At last a show that's story doesn't revolve around stereo typecasting, fashion and predictable plots! With a hint of "House" and a touch of "Life", Kate Reed has the strength of character, witticism and sexiness most women crave. Realistic, humanly flawed characters and relationships build a web of interaction for those looking for something different. The role of the mediator almost softens the blood thirsty image of the legal profession.Fairly Legal has introduced a new style of heroin that should be applauded with a return series despite criticism for her welcomed "out of the box" approach.
