The Firm -- "Chapter 5" -- 1/26/12
By djariya at 2012-01-05
Synopsis:
Spoiler:
Episode 5 of 22
Yes, this is still on the air.
I did watch this tonight. Pretty Meh episode. Mitch gets arrested by Metro PD for the murder of that guy who jumped off the balcony in the Pilot. Then we flashback 3 weeks to the case of the week, which I thought was so dull. That murder case was so uninteresting. I'm going to try to stick with this until the end, but this is turning into a pretty bland procedural. I know most people in this forum hate law procedurals, but I think the one that's the cream of the crop and is somewhat serialized is The Good Wife on CBS.
At least they snagged Victor Garber for next week's episode as a judge. However, his agent should have gotten him a job as a judge on The Good Wife, not a Canadian-U.S. Law show that was primarily made for the overseas market.

I didn't see a thread for Chapter 6, so I just used this one.
The Firm has been moved to Saturdays at 9 starting next week. Repeats of Grimm will air in the slot until Awake debuts on March 1.
So yeah, this show is about done. Maybe NBC will let it run out on Saturday like Persons Unknown.

Hopefully not exactly like Persons Unknown because if I remember correctly, NBC didn't even bother to air one of the episodes -- even on Saturday. I think it was an online-only thing. My memory could be faulty, though.

And The Firm has been pulled...again.
I just looked at my DVR, and NBC is now re-airing The Voice and Smash on Saturday, so The Firm is out, at least for this week. It does look like The Firm will return on the 18th, but if they're pulling it from Saturday before even airing it there, the odds are not that good to see them run all the episodes remaining (if they run any).

It looks like they did, in fact, decide to run all the episodes on Saturday nights. There haven't been any weekly episode threads and not much to discuss anyway, but I stuck with the show. This week's episode was really good. A lot came to a head. I thought it was the finale, but there's one more episode airing next Saturday.

There's only one more episode? I though the show still got a full 22 order season because it was so cheap for NBC. Tonight was only episode #15.

Bad wording. "One more" should have been "another". I looked at TVRage just to verify there were more episodes and it only showed the one for next Saturday. Now there are 2 more listed. That doesn't mean there are only 2 more, though. Looking at Wikipedia it does indeed look like 22 episodes. The one from this week could have easily been a satisfying finale, though (with a minor tweak).
