Episode Quotes

Denny Crane: [Discussing their upcoming case - and the series finale] Hey, maybe I'll retire after this.
Alan Shore: Don't be ridiculous...
Denny Crane: Well, what better way to go out? My last case - in front of the Supreme Court. Now there's a finale, Alan.
Alan Shore: They should put it on TV.
Denny Crane: We'd get ratings.
Alan Shore: If they promoted us. Of course, I think there's a law against promoting us.
Denny Crane: Seems to be.
Alan Shore: [Later in scene] Oh, won't they be so happy to see us again?
Denny Crane: The rematch.
Alan Shore: [laughs] The rematch.
Denny Crane: Grand finale.
Alan Shore: Special 9:00 start time.
Carl Sack: [Arguing, in court, about television age-ism] You know, the only show unafraid to have its stars over 50 is "Bo..."...
Carl Sack: Gee, I can't say it. [ - gesturing toward the cameras and the audience - ] It would, um, break the wall.

Trivia

  • Catherine Piper's cell phone ringtone is the theme from _"The Practice" (1997)_, the show from which Boston Legal is a spin-off.
  • Carl begins to mention the only show on TV who has stars over 50, and then stops in fear of "breaking the wall". He is of course referring to Boston Legal itself, who is known for its habit of constantly breaking the 4th wall.
  • Henry Gibson's final television show performance.
