Show Summary

EDIT

"Conviction", a new legal drama from Dick Wolf (‘Law & Order’-brand series), focuses on young assistant district attorneys in New York as they struggle with a demanding case load that challenges their lack of experience. Although this is not a spin-off of any "Law & Order" show, this show still takes place in that universe, proven by Stephanie March returning as ADA Bureau Chief Cabot from "Law & Order: SVU".

AN ODD, BUT HIGH-QUALITY, SHOW

6.5

By joeydak1111, Jan 27, 2013

I RECENTLY FOUND THIS SHOW ON 'HULU'. I WATCH THE ENTIRE SERIES OVE A SINGLE WEEKEND. IT WAS NOT A WASTE OF MY TIME. IT'S CAST WAS UNEVEN, BUT IT'S STILL BETTER THAN 90% OF THE REST OF NETWORK TV.

I sometimes find this show on Sleuth Channel. Ouch! I can't believe it has been buried so deeply in the cable junk-pile. I thought it was a good show. I think because it was promoted so strongly as a "Dick Wolf" property, people expected it to be another Law & Order and missed the perspective - the personal stories of younger attorneys struggling with a demanding, frequently unsympathetic job and it's effect upon their lives. No, not particularly original, but definitely a departure from the L&O model. Nothing "procedural" about it. Perhaps that was it's downfall. It deserved another season.moreless

Didn't deserve to be canceled.

What most people fail to realize is that this show is examining the lives of the ADAs, how the cases effect them. It does not focus on one case each episode like all the other Law & Order shows, and so, yes, characters like Cabot are going to have more personality. I for one was happy with the show. I think it is a good departure. There are way too many CSIs, Without A Trace, Law & Order shows out there, that the stories all start to blend. Not to mention, the writing on all of these shows is so bland, dry, overused, clichéd and there is very little actual character development. Conviction is a character-driven show, not a case-driven show. This show wasn't given a chance, and it was killed before it even found its life.moreless

great show that should not have been dropped...well u can't have them all...

9.8

By theknot1976, Feb 06, 2008

Well overall the show was good. Different characters that you don't normally see. It is a little Mcbeal meets Greys meets LA law, and the everyone likes everyone and want to sleep with them is the only thing I thought was typical. Nice episodes, even though they really stress on the no emotions thing and that you just do what you need to do.

It was a shame they dropped it, as it looked it could have gone 3 or 4 seasons. Anyway, what are the elements that are evaluated when they decide to keep or drop a new show. I mean are viewers opinions important.moreless
