Boston Legal (Seasons 1–5)

Boston Legal (2004) is an American legal comedy-drama series you can watch online on iFILM, created by David E. Kelley as a spin-off of The Practice. James Spader plays Alan Shore — a razor-sharp litigator who treats courtroom rules as suggestions. William Shatner plays Denny Crane, a founding partner who announces his own name like it settles every argument. It usually does not.

Together they run a high-end Boston civil firm that takes the cases no one else will touch, and wins them by methods that would horrify any ethics committee. Candice Bergen and John Larroquette round out a cast navigating the gap between brilliant legal instinct and complete personal dysfunction. Each episode turns a closing argument into something closer to performance art.

Kelley ran the show for five seasons, earning seventeen Emmy nominations along the way. Stream all seasons of Boston Legal online on iFILM.
