Did I miss the Boston Legal 1/17/06 thread?

I scrolled slowly through 3 pages and I did a forum search but didn't see anything. In the event that I am actually starting it, here is the info.

Helping Hands (edit)
First aired: 1/17/2006
Writer: Andrew Kreisberg, Phoef Sutton
Director: Bill D'Elia
Spoiler:

Alan finds himself all alone against the firm when he decides to defend Jerry Espenson from charges of attempted murder, torture and terrorist threats. Denise and Daniel Post get closer as Daniel second chairs a case against parents who are constantly harassing their daughter's teacher. Meanwhile, Paul is worried about the impact Denny's pending nuptials may have on the firm.


Some absolutely great stuff here. The scene with Alan and Denny dancing is one of the best scenes in the series. I am still amazed at the relatively poor arguments made in some of the cases. In fact, I thought David E. Kelley wrote this one based on the arguments made. But beyond that, the scene with Denny telling Paul that he should just pretend Denny doesn't remember the argument and leave it at that, was priceless. When they show Denny as keen minded, but still slightly affected by "mad cow" this show is at its best.

So where was the thread and how did I miss it with the search function?

The dancing scene was right up there with fishing and the halloween costumes.

I can't start every thread!



As I watched this yesterday, I think I had a huge grin every time Denny was on the screen, particularly the scenes w/ Allen. The dance and the final sequence w/ the deck-hand were classic. Absolutely perfect.

It's depressing to see MJF in the condition he is in.

I liked Daniel and Denny's conversation. Networking.
