Not including shows about trial lawyers, like Perry Mason or Matlock? -- nm* - Roger More Oct 15, 20:23 1
- (I can’t think of any, but it’s a more cynical take on the legal system than we see on network TV) -- nm - Roger More Oct 15, 20:35
I don’t think so, because the concept didn’t go mainstream until Oprah’s beef kerfuffle. - Beryllium Oct 15, 19:58 5
- I disagree. John Grisham introduced the concept to the masses. -- nm - crash davis Oct 15, 21:13 2
  - oh nevermind, Max already made my point -- nm - crash davis Oct 15, 21:13 1
    - But that’s about tampering, not analyzing. Lie to Me was analyzing. Haven’t seen Bull. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 15, 23:39
- I didn't plan this, but I note that Runaway Jury was released 15 years ago this week. -- nm - Max Oct 15, 20:04 1
  - I was going to amend my “E.g.” list to include strenuous juror selection, but iPhones are annoying. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 15, 20:15
