It appears he once prosecuted the Manson family.

Speaking of the defendant in the dominatrix case...

When he was acting extremely strange during the arbitration and they asked him if he was on meds, everyone objected and the objection was sustained.

This seemed very strange. I have been in many depositions and this is sometimes a standard question to determine if there is any reason the deponent may have trouble understanding or answering the questions. I have never heard an objection.

The dominatrix testimony all looked heavily edited and it was very confusing. I wouldn't be surprised if the Judge's request to see the website didn't come farther in time from the desciptions of what she wore in the pictures than they made it look. Same with the medication question, I assume that the question was more general than it looked at was not directed at his behavior. It's hard to know.

Add me to the list of people horrified by Olivier's behavior. I'm a new attorney myself and I'm always getting criticized for showing how annoyed I am with rulings that don't go my way but I have never even come CLOSE to saying a curse word and storming out. Usually I just keep trying to argue after the ruling, which is of course completely futile. Believe it or not, I am learning some things from this show.

Roy Black's constant gesturing is VERY annoying.

Ah, Curlyq! That must be what I was thinking of. I thought I remembered his name from something kind of infamous.

I'm in agreement with those of you who thought Olivier's behavior was poor to say the least. I am surprised that wasn't perceived as something to be dismissed for...but then this is TV and I get the feeling that they want to keep Olivier around longer to help provide the conflict and drama aspects of the show.

I view Olivier's mistake, while loathesome, as something that can be corrected rather than the other two who just had poor lawyering skills and that cannot be corrected.

I don't know if I agree. Relative lack of character / judgment can be tough to change and often persist for life. Of course, there are exceptions. I definitely think lawyering skills can always be improved upon - and they come faster to some than others.

Buggles,

I agree, but I also agree with Roy that he made a mistake and let's move on. Let's give him a second chance, alibiet very slim second chance.

Not like the others. Can't move on from being a bad lawyer.

NBC Recuses 'The Law Firm' After Two Weeks
By Brian Ford Sullivan


LOS ANGELES (thefutoncritic.com) -- NBC has quietly yanked its David E. Kelley-produced reality series "The Law Firm" after just two weeks on the air.

Repeats of "Will & Grace" and "Scrubs" are set to fill the Thursday, 9:00/8:00c hour this week and next according to scheduling updates released by the network today.

A lackluster 5.08 million viewers tuned into "Firm's" premiere on July 28, building off its repeat lead-ins "Joey" (4.22 million) and "Will & Grace" (4.37 million). Said numbers dipped to 4.04 million (or 20.47%) for its second episode on August 4, according to preliminary Nielsen data, down from both "Joey" (4.36 million) and "Will & Grace" (4.09 million).

It's not clear if NBC plans to reschedule the show's six remaining installments for a later date or burn them off on cable sibling Bravo, which has been repurposing the episodes.

Kelley, David Garfinkle, Jay Renfroe, Jonathan Pontell and Robert Breech are the executive producers of "The Law Firm," which comes from Renegade 83, Inc. in association with David E. Kelley Productions and 20th Century Fox Television.

Pamy, I agree.

There are certainly worse shows on TV that they let run their course.

Additionally, considering that shows like this (and Last Comic) have an OUTCOME, how they can just brush it under a rug seems crazy.

I hate it when they do this, especially when they replace it with repeats.

I just heard on TV that they're going to air the rest of the episodes on Bravo. I don't have Bravo! Oh well, I'll have to keep up on here to find out who wins at least.

After watching this episode, I will say that the only redeeming fact I find about Judge Katz is that he is retired, therefore limiting the amount of cases he can mess up.

I saw The Law Firm listed on Bravo's online schedule the other day, but now there is no mention of it on Bravo anywhere at all.

I'm thinking it has been canned altogether....
