The professional and personal lives of the brilliant but often emotionally challenged attorneys of Crane Poole & Schmidt are on display for another season of social and moral issues—and, yes, sexually harassing Denny Crane.
Starring back-to-back Emmy Award winners James Spader and William Shatner as Alan Shore and Denny Crane, unlikely kindred spirits among the brigade of high-priced litigators the firm. In addition, Shirley Schmidt (played by five-time Emmy winner Candice Bergen), a founding partner of the firm, continues to help bring order to the chaotic office...especially to her mad cow-diseased old flame Denny.
To keep the quirky office staff in tow, Schmidt calls in senior partner Carl Sack (Emmy Award winner John Larroquette) to Boston from the New York offices. He is also keeping an eye on Crane, who considers Sack a worthy nemesis. Added to the mix are Jerry "Hands" Espenson, Shore's friend and fellow lawyer who suffers from Aspergers syndrome, and Clarence Bell (aka Clarice/Clevant/Oprah, portrayed by Gary Anthony Williams), who suffers from such an extreme case of social inadequacy and shyness that he can morph into a number of personalities at the drop of a hat. They continue to try cases while doing their best to fit in with the other members of the firm. Then there's Katie Lloyd (Tara Summers), fresh out of law school and eager to learn as she becomes a young associate of the Boston offices; Lorraine Weller (Saffron Burrows), a sexy, sophisticated litigator who once had a passionate affair with Shore, the chemistry of which still lingers and distracts; and Whitney Rome (Taraji P. Henson), a premiere though unconventional litigator from the New York office who transfers herself to C.P.& S. Boston.
