    ..this is one should keep going..

    ..this is a show if the powers that be leave it alone could go a very long way.. .. it has all the initial markings of an exceptionally long run series.. ..for is the writing and cast that if kept together, will be among the longer best..

    .. there lots of the not-so-good-ones that keep getting renewed season after season.. ..always good to have one of the really worthwhile pull through time & again..

    its a small world

    Its a small world when you end up watching a TV series from 'home' 2 years after the event only because it got favourably reviewd in the NY Times, but yer honour, i have to plead guilty. Amy Huberman almost effortlessly carries the major weight of the series & its nice to see in these days of woman the barricades that she is accompanied by some other very talented female actors. the stories are good, but please mr director, can we lose the sweeping shots of the dublin skyline? MANHATTAN it aint

    Refreshing new series

    OK so if you want to know what happens in a real lawyer's office go and sit there for a few days. This is television and this series (too short) is a great piece of escapism. It's so nice not to have about five thousand and twenty-three story-lines or a script that is unintelligible. There is a real freshness about this series and it is good to see an Irish team take on such a project. One criticism is that it would be nice to let the actors out of that canal basin now and again! Looking forward to more! Ms Huberman creates a new type of lawyer hero, one with an overlay of innocent ingenuity, again a refreshing departure from standard fare. Hovering in the background are a series of corrupt individuals giving the story a David versus Goliath theme.

    Wonderfully written and acted series: can't wait for Season 2!

    Outstanding series with fantastic actors and excellent writing! I can't wait to see more. I especially appreciate that this legal drama casts its lead character as an intelligent, caring, strong woman. Her professional and personal relationships are developed in depth, with enough humor to keep the series on the light side. I also like that this series does not rely on graphic images of violence, especially against women and children, to convince viewers to keep watching, as do so many similarly themed shows. Thank you, Acorn, for providing such an awesome series!
