Studio One: The Defender: Part 1 (1957)
Episode 20, Season 9
plot recycled on Boston Legal
6 April 2007 - 1 out of 2 users found this review helpful.
the 3apr07 episode of Boston Legal based a plot line on this show, using clips as flashbacks.
shatner used a courtroom trick to get the 19-y.o. off in 1957, but 50 yrs later, the son of the woman the defendant was accused of murdering takes shatner, the defendant & others hostage.
he forces them to restage the trial, to get a guilty verdict, justice...
shatner flashes back several times during the"trial" with clips from the studio 1 episode, showing the conflict between shatner & bellamy over the courtroom trick.
rather an inventive recycling, i thought;-)
