Fairly Legal is a new American television series on the USA Network. It first aired on January 20th, 2011. This series is created and written by Michael Sardo. It comes under the category of Legal Drama.
It stars:
- Sarah Shahi as Kate
- Michael Trucco as Justin
- Baron Vaughn as Leornardo
- Virginia Williams as Lauren
The series is based on the main character Kate, a former lawyer turned mediator and is set in San Francisco. Kate works at her father's law firm, and as her father has just recently passed away, she, her stepmother Lauren, her brother and the rest of the firm have had to adjust to the loss.
For any female watching this there are two main 'eye candy', these being Justin who is portrayed by Michael Trucco (who formerly played Cooper in One Tree Hill), Kate's ex-husband and Kate's neighbour at the dock, who has yet to be introduced properly.
My favourite character at the moment has got to be Leonardo. Leonardo is Kate's assistant. His friendly mocking nature towards Kate and the way in which she manages to get herself out of situations amuses me. So far their chemistry (friendship) in the first two episodes is proving great to watch.
What I love about this series is the connection to The Wizard of Oz. Whenever Kate's phone rings, if it is for example her Stepmother Lauren, the wicked witch theme from The Wizard of Oz begins to play, and other themes from the film are also connected to the other main characters.
One last thing that I will comment on in this blog post, is the main character Kate. The portrayal of Kate from Sarah Shahi is great. She is portrayed as this organised mediator but behind the scenes appears to be a bit of a disorganised wreck. She goes with her gut instinct on different matters and when she has to discard something to follow this instinct, like when she has to get back to the office for something, she is seen by her assistant through the window, outside the building, nearly making it but clearly just having found something more important to go to, with the shout of "Taxiiii!", and this seems to be a recurring theme from Kate.
