And the characters were very much realistic for the time. What wasn’t realistic?


I didn’t say that the characters weren’t realistic. But do you really think that all of these characters would realistically intersect and interact like this show depicted in 1930s LA?

Again, same concept as when I see a commercial with an 80 y/o Eskimo woman in bed with her Dinka tribesman husband …I guess it’s possible that you could find that pairing somewhere in real life , but probably not without looking really hard…

Ridiculous oranges.

A liberal defense attorney who focuses on the plight of those who can't defend themselves (and can't pay well) would attract a diverse group of outsiders. And in 1930's Los Angeles, blacks, Asians, and gays were all right there in the mix. You could have a good show about straight white guys in the '30's, but it wouldn't delve as well into the worlds that this series featured so well.
