John Larroquette, Saffron Burrows, Tara Summers, and Taraji Henson joined the series in season four, as did Christian Clemenson, who had recurred since season two.īrad Chase is the man who the others turn to when they need something done. Julie Bowen, Justin Mentell and Ryan Michelle Bathe joined the series in the second season, while Craig Bierko, Constance Zimmer, and Gary Anthony Williams first appeared in season three.

The original cast includes Spader, Bell, Mitra, Shatner, Monica Potter, and Mark Valley. The following characters first appeared in Boston Legal, and formed part of the regular ensemble. Denny and Alan marry in the series finale. Though he marries another woman in Season 2 (from whom he is quickly divorced after engaging in an act of infidelity at their wedding reception), he still pines for Shirley Schmidt. Denny enjoys an extremely close friendship with Alan Shore, is also a womanizer like Alan, and has no problem sleeping with the wives of judges and clients. This is just one of several people he shoots over the course of the series, with several characters saying that Denny "shoots people". He also refuses to defend anyone who is accused of extremely heinous acts in one episode, he shoots a client because of the nature of his crime ( raping and murdering a child). When he does appear in court as a lawyer in later seasons, however, he still performs well.ĭenny is a conservative who loves firearms and believes gun control is for " communists". By Season 3 he mostly serves as a figurehead at the firm, rarely trying cases and appearing in court more often as a plaintiff and defendant due to his antics. While he is still trying cases frequently as late as Season 1 of Boston Legal, by Season 2, he seems to have lost most of his talent for complex litigation, though he still shows flair in appealing to a jury in closing arguments. Denny suffers from memory loss and confusion as part of the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, but often refers to his troubles as " mad cow disease" when his utterances are confusing to others or when he himself becomes confused. In one of the final episodes of The Practice, he explained that often people don't believe they're in the room with a legend, so he says his own name to let them know it's true. He is an eccentric who considers himself a legend and loves to say his own name to "sign" his verbal utterances.
Alan is best friends with (and later husband of) Denny Crane despite their sharp differences in political ideologies.Ī named partner of Crane, Poole & Schmidt, Dennis 'Denny' Crane is a renowned attorney of some fifty years of practice who claims he has never lost a case, and never will. He has resigned himself to the fact that he will never be made partner at the firm due to his unpredictable behavior and lack of trustworthiness while the managing partners of Crane, Poole & Schmidt do not fully trust Alan, they do recognize his talent as an attorney.
Alan suffers from night terrors, has a fear of clowns, and gave up his home, preferring instead to live in hotels. Wherever he works, he treats his coworkers with levity and refuses to take himself too seriously. He is disappointed and disillusioned with how the country has changed in recent years, and routinely confronts these issues in open court. Alan is, however, unwavering in his defense of the underdog (unless he is representing the other party). Illicit computer hacking, blackmail, disguise and bribery are all tools he uses without hesitation. Tom Shore from Gift from Uncle Tom!
