People think so highly of lawyers that they want lawyers to rule over the people.

Shows are better than real life.

For the same reason we all like mobster shows.

Most people do hate lawyers, for many good reasons. Until you need one.

Because people don't have to pay for attorney's on TV shows.
IRL the attorney charges you $200 to read a text, $150 for the time he was on the toilet lurking the OT and $1200 to write a simple letter.
Reading a billing statement from an IRL attorney is enough to trigger especially if you are one paying.

Lawyer show or a Doctor/Hospital show
1) Cheap to produce (no action scenes)
On Grey's Anatomy the hospital blows up every other episode.

I'm the opposite. I don't really care for lawyer shows, but don't have a problem with most real life lawyers.
I did like LA Law though, and I do know a handful of scummy lawyers, so it's not absolute.

They do.
And make no mistake: TRUMP will be the LAST outsider businessman to EVER dare run for POTUS. It will be Ivy League lawyers from here on out.

I disagree that no businessmen will run for POTUS although I did agree that the majority from here out will be law graduates.
