Gawd, do I love The Practice again. James Spader is awesome. He is the main focal character. Eugene, Eleanor, Jimmy; they are all secondary characters anymore.

There were two distinct moments when I laughed out loud.

“Not in _that_ room. It may contain _EVIL_.”

“Ignorance is bliss. It’s also constitutional.”

By the way, what’s his character’s name? I’ve never paid attention to it.
