It's ok, reasonably entertaining and if you have time to kill worth a watch. It might not appeal to everyone, but considering how much rubbish is on the television, this falls on the right side of ok.

The show has potential, especially if you're into this kind of fare and if the Grey's Anatomy faculty aged out of your interest, but they pay too much attention to the wrong characters and storylines. Britt Robertson's character sucks. She is whiny, bland and forced. I'd like to see Littlejohn's character and storylines take a more prominent role. She is far more interesting and has a better dynamic and chemistry with other characters than Robertson's crybaby. Also, why is the diversity hire never working? Her storylines have more to do with her love life than her job. Why not have the whiny girl date and let the competent, not crying in every other scene, diversity hire actually practicing law? I'll give it another season if the network does, but if it doesn't make some changes for the better I'll go back to Grey's Anatomy. Doctor's are cooler anyway.Also, Hope Davis is awesome, as usual.

I love 2 types of tv series, medical and legal.
I watched Grey's anatomy for a decade, I like stories and personalities in there, it links to my personal experience, I cry a lot....
But this is the only show of Shonda Rhimes I'd like to follow.
In other shows, it's just the same, love stories with White house in the background, love stories with courthouse in the background, on and on and on....
The reason that I love medical and legal series, people there are really smart, and elegant, but in this show I always wonder, why they are smart enough to go to law school, but not smart to be a lawyer? Just a bunch of kids try to act like one, but the truth is EVEN MIKE ROSS NEVER GO TO LAW SCHOOL, HE IS DOING BETTER THAN THAT ! !
This is not a good show, not good enough to let me to finish the first episode.

I gave the pilot a try, not against watching more but not really eager to do so either. Overall it seems like a decent courtroom drama show that has a fair amount of interesting ideas, definitely watchable and fairly enjoyable. But on the other hand, the portrayal of the characters strikes me as just a little bit cheesy and cartoonish rather than nuanced or deeply interesting. Not horrible or anything, but not ideal either, especially since to me, characterization is probably the most important part of a show. Also, I personally thought it was very stupid that a boyfriend and girlfriend were attorneys for opposite sides of a case and honestly thought even for a minute that it might work out just fine. That was probably the hardest thing for me to accept and the most off-putting thing about the pilot. I'm not saying it can't happen, but who would really think that would work? At any rate, it wasn't bad. It just failed to strike me as being anything great either, but that doesn't mean it's not decent. If you feel like watching it, you might as well give it a try.
