I neglected to mention him earlier but mostly because I’d never actually seen his work before. I never saw <cite>The Practice</cite>, although I had heard about the fact that his character was what allowed <cite>Boston Legal</cite> to happen.<br /> <br /> You’re so right about the banter between Spader and Shatner. I can’t get over how well they work together. I’ve been a fan of Shatner’s since the Ben Folds <cite>Fear of Pop</cite> days, though, so I was really excited about seeing him in a role that allows him to be…just, Shatner.

The repartee between he and Shatner is ludicrous and makes for arguably the best hour of tv all week—then again, I don’t really watch too much tv.
