Raising The Bar

ADVERTISEMENTS

Its good to see the much rumored television series (Raising the Bar on TNT) based on a group of young Deputy Public Defenders, Deputy DA's and their battles in and out of the courtroom has made it off the ground and is scheduled to make it to our local television screens on September 1st!

The best part of this is that one of our very own, David Feige (blawger at Indefensible and author of Indefensible) is credited alongside Stephen Bochco as one of the creator's!

This is so cool!

Also, as you can see in the image above that Mark-Paul Gosselaar is in the show (playing one of the good guys!). As a young Mexican kid watching Saved By The Bell, I can't tell you how many times I wished I could trade places with Slater (Mario Lopez) hanging out with my good buddy Zach (Gosselaar), trying to get into the pants of Tiffani Thiessen and Elizabeth Berkley....and NOW, he is one of us!

Ahhh...seems like just yesterday.

What? I was a lonely kid!

Its really just a thought, but I've got a sick feeling that the Deputy PD's will be doing their own investigations, miraculously without a trusty PD Investigator by their side but thats the way it goes in TV land I suppose. I trust with Feige involved in the show, it will stay as true to life as possible.

I'll just be keeping my fingers crossed, hoping that the show doesn't suck!
