LA Law Revival (Jill Eikenberry Returning)

[thechase]

Jill Eikenberry is set to guest star in ABC drama pilot L.A. Law, a revival of the iconic Steven Bochco legal drama, reprising her role as Ann Kelsey. Eikenberry starred on all eight seasons of the original series as Kelsey, Associate/Partner in the firm. In the pilot, Eikenberry’s Kelsey is now a judge.


In the revival, written by Marc Guggenheim and Ubah Mohamed and to be directed by Anthony Hemingway, the venerable law firm of McKenzie Brackman — now named Becker Rollins — reinvents itself as a litigation firm specializing in only the most high-profile, boundary-pushing and incendiary cases.

But who will they get to fall down the broken elevator shaft this time around?

The name Becker implies that Corbin Bernsen is back as well... I would have assumed Arnie would have left the firm to become a TV celebrity lawyer/"talking head on the news or whenever Entertainment Tonight needed a legal opinion about Hollywood scandals" type of character.

EDIT: And reading about the relaunch, maybe that's what the show is about...

I’ve got a great story for them to do.

so mind you, at this point I'm only going out with her two or three
weeks. So she goes out of town and she asks me to feed her cat. So at this time, there's a lot of stuff going on in my life and, uh, it slips my mind for a few days. Maybe a week. Not a week, five, six days. Well, it's the damnedest thing. The cat dies. So she comes back into town, she finds the cat lying on the carpet stiff as a board. I say, listen. It was an old cat. It died of
natural causes. So get this, now she tells me that I gotta buy her a brand new cat. I say listen, honey. First of all, it was a pretty old cat. I'm not gonna buy you a brand new cat to replace an old dying cat. And second of all, I go out to the garbage, I find you a new cat in fifteen seconds. I say, you show me an autopsy report that says this cat died of starvation, I spring for a new
cat. So she says something to me, like, uh, I dunno, get the hell out of here, and she breaks up with me.

Now don't you think that would be a great case on L.A. Law?
