Boston Legal let me down

Denny Crane Fires an Associate for Being Too Fat. Court Rules "Denny is a jerk."

Sadly this did not happen.

I am totally disappointed. Really. I suppose I had no right to expect more but I did.

I thought that perhaps we would hear them cite the differing medical information about weight and weight loss, or a spirited discussion about how ideal body types have changed over the centuries and vary greatly between cultures.

But none of this was written for the show. Merely one lawyer whining that it's not fair to be picked on for being fat and Alan Shore whining about how you might be doing a fat person a favor by pointing out that they are fat because maybe they didn't notice.

I really feel this was a missed opportunity...but they didn't call and ask me about their script before filming. Oh well, maybe next time.

Boston Legal

OK listen up!

Boston Legal is on RIGHT NOW and Denny Crane fired an associate lawyer because she was fat. He gets read the riot act by others in the firm and the fired associate sues. Denny then pulls out a magazine with an article saying that fat is contagious and that he fired her for his own safety.

I am very interested in seeing where this goes. Tune in next week!

To be continued....
