The Defenders Season 1 General Discussion Thread (Spoilers)


THE DEFENDERS is a drama about two colorful Las Vegas defense attorneys who go all-in when it comes to representing their clients. Nick and Pete are the local go-to guys with an eclectic client list who are still looking to hit their own jackpot. Leading the law firm of Morelli & Kaczmarek are Nick Morelli, an earnest, hard-charging attorney who represents his clients to the best of his ability, no matter how big or small the case; and his partner, Pete Kaczmarek, whose passion for the law is matched only by his love of fast cars, beautiful women and expensive clothes. Joining them in their growing law practice is new associate Lisa Tyler, an enthusiastic young attorney looking to put her exotic dancing days behind her; and their young assistant, Zoe Waters, a spunky and sweet ingénue who is eager to please her bosses. While Lady Luck shines on their legal careers, the partners have their hands full when it comes to their personal lives. With Pete busy cruising the Vegas Strip for his latest romantic conquest, Nick is focused on repairing a fractured marriage to his estranged wife and remaining present in the life of their young son. No matter the offense, Nick and Pete aim to prove that when the stakes are high, they're willing to bet the house on the clients they defend in Sin City.

Well nice tactic trying to get involuntary manslaughter  but than figuring if they take involuntary off the table it would lead to a not guilty verdict was bold move but it worked. I have never seen tactic on a legal show.

Another good episode with a great result for the mother but the other case was amusing because know matter how he tried to win the money that was left was the same but the power failure when watching the race was funny

Nevada v. Carter

Pete really took a risk when he told guy to tell truth but it backfired when he confess that he was intimidated by defence lawyer and it does look his casual relationship with DA is Over after she went after him .

The other lawyer taking the 9 year deal because of his work load was terrible but Pete was lucky to win this case and Nick giving Pete a bill for his time was funny

I liked the way Nick decked the guy after he threatened him and his family and the arsonist was lucky not to be convicted of first-degree murder

It looks like Pete's client, Darian was in court for the wrong thing and the senator got it wrong when he thought his wife had killed his mistress but trying to take the blame was nice

1x06 Nevada Vs Rodgers

The cops harassing Nick and one of the jurors should of known better but his actions allowed them to get a good deal and Pete attempting to kiss the opposition after their date was amusing

Well that the things he got a good deal about it but afterwards that cop shake nick hand was a nice touch.

Episode 7

What a way get two cases separated by making other lawyer bring up his client conviction-that was one great legal strategy

Reply 15#15 bala's post

That was a great legal strategy and justice was done because the did take the ring but the piano as a gift was nice

Episode 8

This was crazy episode the client were really something a hacker post his bail but hacking court database and changing the system make it look like bail posted than you have rapper confess to murder of a person in front the audience through his rap.

Reply 17#17 bala's post

Quinn hacking the court database and Zoe finding Alexis was impressive but the rapper wanted on two counts of first-degree murder because of the lyrics of his song was lucky

TOP

Episode 9

Well she finally found out the reason why her husband died and i can't believe he gave up his fee which was nice
