It seems that after the episode where they where in Texas, the show got the axes. Me thinks the show went the way of "Whoopi".

This is the one and only show I looked forward to watching and you take it off the air! Put it back on the air! I miss it. Spader is the best actor I have seen in a long time. He makes the show!

Boston Legal is the most sophisticated and intriguing program on television. It has both depth and humor. Unlike most programs, including GA, it appeals to all age segments. Please allow this exceptional program back on and show you recognize its appeal.

I think this is a very well conieved show. All the characters interact wonderfuly together. Please keep this show around for a least another season. Grey,s Anatomy, which i have watched is a shallow program with shallow charecters and is a watered down version of ER as well as other Hospital oriented shows. This theme ha been beaten to death and I believe medical dramas especially one as bad as this replace such a great show as Boston Legal with actors that have won awards and are actually worth watching. I will not be tuning in to your new medical show which I have to say "sucks". Chuck Dennis

I love the series Boston Legal and looked forward to it each Sunday evening. I was terribly surprised and disappointed to find it MIA each week. Please bring it back! The show's dymamics and clever repartee, especially amongst Spade, Shatner and more recently Bergen, kept me in stitches. If Sunday night is not a good time slot please find another.

What happened to "Boston Legal"? I love that show! I always watched it. I loved all the characters, the story lines, and the dialog. Why is it no longer on the air or is it on the air at a different time slot. This is the first time I have ever written in about a TV show, so it must be an excellent show for me to miss it and the characters. What has happened to it? Where and when is it airing? I would assume that a show like that would be kept on the tube. If some uninformed person/s have taken this amazing show off the air, they have made a huge error in judgment.

My husband and I looked forward to viewing Boston Legal every Sunday. Then without knowing what hit us, the show disappeared. Grey's Anatomy took its place. I don't look forward to its showing on Sunday's and only watch it if there is nothing better to do. I feel that ABC disregarded their viewers. Why couldn't it wait for next season? There's 7 other nights that may have some time available for Grey's. BRING BACK BOSTON LEGAL!!!

Cheryl C. said 04/27/05, 6:13 pm (verified)
I thought that this was just a short hiatus to give a new medical show (that I don't watch) a chance because of a huge built-in viewership of BL. I'm in disbelief that Boston isn't coming back! What could the network be thinking by not renewing or bringing the show back for a season finale--ABSOLUTELY UNTHINKABLE AND UPSETTING!!!

Boston Legal was too good. Was it dropped bcause it is just too difficult to write such scripts again and again and much easier to scribble off the pap that has replaced "Boston?" Is this is matter of 'Quit While you are Ahead?" I hope not. Genius is not that easily depleted, so writers, write on. Give us back our Boston, please.

First we were told Grey's Anatomy was a temporary "debut". So we waited patiently until our Boston Legal came back. After what seemed like eternity of no BL, we were told BL would be back on April 24. So we all tune in on April 24 to find what....no BL but another dimwitted episode of GA. Now we are told it will be back for the 2005-2006 season. Even though there are 5 more episodes already done for the 2004-2005 season, ABC has decided not to air them until next season? WHAT???Really? ABC...do you expect us to believe that? You must want to make viewers mad and have them switch to another channel. That's the only thing I can think of because you are not showing all the episodes and leading on viewers. Bring back BL...please!!!

Please keep Boston Legal on. I have worked in law firms for 40 years but, unfortunately, not one of them has been like Boston Public. What fun it would have been. Please keep this show on and remove Gray's Anatomy. I would hate to have one of those doctors take care of me. It grosses me. I go out of my way not to support the sponsors of shows I don't like.

You hit the nail on the head and then you bring out the Sappy girly ****! From a guy who hates the BS on TV these days, You had me hooked and my word of mouth adverts for BL was going well until no one could find the darn show!

What could you possibly be thinking? Boston Legal is one of the best and most highly entaining shows on TV! To take a show with such a high caliber of writing and acting off the air is absurd.The so called "reality" shows are as real (and just as stupid) as pro wrestling. There are so few quality shows left on TV. Boston Legal was one of the few truly great shows on to appear in recent years...bring it back! Please!

I don't watch much television, but made a habit of Sunday night viewing because of "Desperate Housewives" and "Boston Legal" "Boston Legal" represented intelligent, provocative entertainment with humor and a touch of class. The death penalty episode was profound and accurate. I find it hard to believe that I am in the minority in this country, the majority preferring "reality shows" about dating, houses and getting a job with Donald Trump. I have gone back to reading on Sunday nights-I don't watch "Desperate Housewives" in protest over the removal of "Boston Legal" ABC-what can you be thinking?

After waiting patiently for the return of Boston Legal on April 24 I am livid to find that I has been put on the back burner. Spader is brilliant as is Shatner but David E. Kelley's writing is smart, funny, and relevant. Of course shows that reach beyond the lowest common denominator of the viewing public are always doomed. I wouldn't be surprised if the Republican thought police had something to do with it. ABC you should be ashamed, bring BL back.
