All Rise: Sometimes Truth Is Stranger Than Fiction (2023)
Sad to see the end, but what a way to go!
This has been one of my favorite shows since it began. It has made me think more about what my approach would be to criminal justice, if allowed to do something different. I really like the holistic approach they showed. The characters have been a lot of fun to watch, even the ones that I liked less than the others. (They portrayed their characters that well.) I was sorry to see CBS let this one go and had great hopes when OWN picked it up. Sadly, the powers that be at OWN also decided to let it go. Of course, COVID may have had a little to do with that...trying to keep the actors and all...and the recent strike would not have been helpful, either. I'm sure the actors will all land on their feet and I look forward to their future ventures. Here's to a great show and a stellar cast. Cheers!

Judge change
Just a funny note. Judge Malloy on this episode is Judge Wright on several L&O episodes and a L&O: TbJ episode. There are several actors who have fulfilled various roles in the L&O franchise. Most of the time, they are spaced far enough apart that it might not be recognized. In any case, this particular character does a really good job making himself unlikable as a judge and seeming as though he has difficulty actually abiding by the law he's supposed to adjudicate. I;m pretty certain there are judges like that in the real world, and that's really sad, since they should be absolutely honest and dependable.
