Life, love & law.
Ally McBeal Aired From September 08, 1997 - May 20, 2002 On FOX.
ABOUT THE SHOW:
The show is about Ally McBeal who is 28 years old, newly graduated from Harvard Law School. Ally is harassed on the job by one of the other employees in the firm where she works. Ally lets the partners of the firm know what happens and ends up losing her job. She runs into an old friend on the street and he who offers her a job at his new firm. She accepts the job. This show is trendy, cool, and hip and shows Ally as a modern woman - confused yet intelligent.
The show focused on the romantic and personal lives of the main characters, often using legal proceedings as plot devices to contrast or reinforce a character's drama. For example, bitter divorce litigation of a client might provide a backdrop for Ally's decision to break up with a boyfriend.
The show had many off-beat and frequently surreal running gags and themes, for example Ally would immediately fall over whenever she met somebody she found attractive, and the character Fish's "wattle" fetish and humorous mottos ("Fishisms") ran through the series. The show used vivid, dramatic fantasy sequences for Ally's and other characters' wishful thinking; particularly notable is the dancing baby.
