  Ally McBeal but set in the future - a law firm tackles the law under a changing technological world.

  The issues tackled in this well made, scifi lite show, were currant and relevant...looking at currant technological advances, and projecting them into the future - analysing the potential legal issues around them.
  
  I thought that this show was cancelled prematurely - the cast had a good dynamic, the beginnings of indivual stories were presented and all in all I felt that it had potential. I also liked the individual nature of the episodes, while the concepts might have felt silly in other circumstances, here they inspired debate and discussion.
  
  And oddly enough, all the cast have gone on to bigger and better things - lost for instance!

  Wished it would had last very long! hide « show »

  I loved this show and dumb CBS had to pull it from its lineup after only just four shows and didn't give it time to grow.
  It had very good acting and writing but the audience just wasn't there like they were for the Unit.
  Again a great show that just didn't get a chance to grow!

  This show is "ahead of it's time!" hide « show »

  Century City is about about a group of lawyers that tackle subjects that you would see on law shows in the present. Cases relevant in 30 years or so, Century City tackles cloning and advance technology. This show was too WAY before it's time and CBS needed to give this show a chance, and it didn't. At least some cable network should have picked this show up. I believe NBC Universal HD replays some episodes, but I'm not sure. This is show is so, the best way I can put it, cool (with the whole futuristic setting). CBS should have given it a longer life.

  Great show...simply put hide « show »

  Century City at first to me seemed like any other law show out there. Until I watched it. It was awesome!! I love the premise of shows where they place the future less than 50 years away. I love it becuase these shows are more of science fact, things that might actually come to be in our lifetimes.
  
  Centruy city presented cases that could have relevance in 30 or so years. Cloning, age defing surgery (more than just plastic surgery) and other topics of this short lived series were always interesting. This show was cancelled WAY before it was ever given a chance. Given the right time slot and premier date, this show would have still been going strong today.

  A show never given a chance... hide « show »

  A show that takes place in the future at a newly formed law firm that debates questionable issues in a court of law that mankind will likely face in our lifetime. The episode on cloning was quite an eye opener. The show also touches potential dangers with advanced technology as referenced in the episode about a device that allowed a person to record a person's personal thoughts.
