The changes to Harry's Law from season 1 to season 2, changing from an original, clever show to another run-of-the-mill law show, is a shame. Kathy Bates has gone from a quirky store front lawyer in the ghetto handling unique cases to just one of a number of lawyers in what could be any big time law firm.
Gone are two original characters (both black) replaced by Mark Valley (Really??!!) and some yuppie black female. This debacle has network executive hands all over it. A guy named Greenblatt took over NBC this year and no doubt thinks he's going to be the genius who saves NBC. And seems to think he's better at creating a show than David E. Kelly. What a shame to lose such a unique program. I'm done after watching the opening 4 episode story with a totally unbelievable character played by Jean Smart and has Harry defending a very rich white guy. Who cares?
