A favorite attorney - hmmmmm - that's a really hard one.

Is there such a thing as a favorite attorney? Even a TV attorney? What's that old joke.......somthing about when all the attorneys are gone, that's a good start. I don't even watch attorney shows on television. As you can tell, in general, attorneys are not my favorite people, having had dealings with them in the past and requirng dealings with them currently. I hope someone has something more positive to say than me.....

WAIT....long time ago Andy Griffith was a kindly old southern attorney. Don't remember what his TV name was.

Television icon Andy Griffith, best known as the sage town sheriff in the

’60s sitcom The Andy Griffith Show and as a cantankerous defense

attorney on 1980s-’90s drama Matlock !

I remember a T.V. Show with Arthur Hill called Owen Marshall: Counselor-at-law. I really loved that show, though I was very young at the time (I think about 10), also Perry Mason.
Even though I realized it wasn't great I enjoyed the show Harry's Law (Kathy Bates) the last couple years. I don't even know if that show is cancelled for good or what. I love Kathy Bates.

Perry Mason ( 1957-1966 )


When you call someone a, “ Perry Mason ” even years after the

show left the airwaves, everyone still knows exactly what you mean...

Matlock

oh good - do we get to tell lawyer jokes here?

Okay - what do you call 500 attorneys at the bottom of the Ocean?

A good start.


I like Matlock too, Soleil
