This series is at its weakest when the plot
focuses on Alicia. Her personal and professional problems are not more
interesting than many a soap opera character. The issue of female independence
is now rather a cliché and the producers have added nothing to this as far as
Alicia is concerned. Julianna Margulies does a very good job of being often
enigmatic and low-key, but the quality of her acting is not enough to overcome
the lack of characterization in the writing. This show is best when her
presence, her problems, and her actions serve as a catalyst for the other
characters. When, as a result of her situations, we see how the plot and
characterization for the others in her personal and professional life unfold.
This approach is unusual and unique in episodic television, and the producers
should focus all their efforts to develop this core idea of how the dynamics of
the character interactions work.sale on http://www.dvdbestonline.com
