[speaker002:] oh I'm sorry
[speaker001:] it's okay you can get started there
[speaker002:] okay I think LA Law
[speaker001:] oh that's probably what I was going to say
[speaker002:] and uh Dallas I I'm a
[speaker001:] okay
[speaker002:] I'm a veteran of all of Dallas shows
[speaker001:] oh uh-huh
[speaker002:] it's very embarrassing
[speaker001:] oh yeah where where are you calling from
[speaker002:] Dallas
[speaker001:] Dallas yeah I'm from Rowlett
[speaker002:] oh okay I just moved here last April
[speaker001:] oh really
[speaker002:] and uh I got my husband I got I got married to a TIer and uh well the first thing my mom and I did when we moved out here was go to Southfork it was very embarrassing
[speaker001:] really I was going to ask you if you've been out to Southfork
[speaker002:] they have a museum there of all the Dallas uh uh people and they have they even have a a genealogy chart of all of the people who married who and whose children are whose and they even went so far as to put dotted lines on there as to who had an affair with who
[speaker001:] uh-huh huh
[speaker002:] it was pretty bad bad because I understood all of it
[speaker001:] okay I I can't say I'm that much of a faithful Dallas follower maybe it's because because I live here and I know how hokey it is I don't know one of my uh uh I went to school out in Plano and one of my my classmates married one of the uh uh one of the Duncans that actually owned Southfork when it started
[speaker002:] oh yeah
[speaker001:] so and I think she was in some of the shows for a while as extra and stuff so
[speaker002:] yeah that wasn't a very good thing that happened to that family
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] they kind of went in there and took over
[speaker001:] well what are you going to do they're they're coming to the end of their season uh
[speaker002:] well that's what I'm doing May third I'm going to sit right here watch it
[speaker001:] I was going to say there's going to be no more Dallas reruns
[speaker002:] actually I haven't watched it much this season in the last couple of years I've been on that uh downward trend
[speaker001:] yeah of course they're uh they're probably going to set it up for some kind of sequel or something in the future and uh
[speaker002:] yeah those TV movies or something
[speaker001:] yeah it's got to come back
[speaker002:] it was funny I I spent a a year overseas a few years ago and all the TV was I was in Japan and all the TV shows were in Japanese
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] but they showed reruns of Dallas and it was great because I could turn it on and all of the people were very familiar to me and I'd seen all of the shows so I knew what was going on
[speaker001:] so you didn't need to know the language
[speaker002:] huh-uh but it it was it was really nice when you move to such a foreign culture to see all these familiar faces
[speaker001:] how about that true and hear hear the weird voices
[speaker002:] yeah all those dubs it's terrible
[speaker001:] it like yeah somebody one time was talking about John Wayne movies with these weird Japanese voices and it's hard to imagine well what do you think about what's going on on LA Law this year it's
[speaker002:] well I
[speaker001:] have you seen it the past couple of weeks
[speaker002:] I can't remember the last time I saw it I know that um Susan Dey is with Jimmy Smits
[speaker001:] yeah and she's pregnant did you know that
[speaker002:] yeah and that just she doesn't belong with him
[speaker001:] and that they kicked Michael Kuzak out did you know that
[speaker002:] no he's not with the firm anymore
[speaker001:] no he uh the the I'm trying to remember Leland decided to extend Brackman's uh reign as a senior partner
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] and the rest of the partners all got up in arms about it and Michael met with them and said and said you know we got to do something about this we need to make a proposal let somebody else be the leader and he kind of elected himself and everybody else went along with it and they they uh gave it to Leland and he hit the roof and um he and Brackman talked about it and and Brackman decided to try and do away with him so he fired him because he he violated one of their policies of going behind a senior partner's back or something so they fired him they chased him off with the security guards they're fighting out that battle now he's firm formed his own firm
[speaker002:] really
[speaker001:] he uh what else did he do he did a lot of nasty nasty stuff behind their back yeah he stole Grace and Victor they've gone with him um
[speaker002:] wow
[speaker001:] and um who are the other two he stole two associates
[speaker002:] um the the tax attorney
[speaker001:] Abby and Jonathan he he took Abby and Jonathan with him
[speaker002:] yeah really
[speaker001:] yeah and he he went to uh he went to the bank and he took um I can't remember the guy the guy he defended for murder Earl you know they had a lien against his house so he'd pay his legal bills do you remember that
[speaker002:] the the black guy that
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] he was a teacher
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] they they they put a lien against his house so he'd pay his legal bills because it was like three or four hundred thousand dollars or something
[speaker002:] whoa
[speaker001:] well Michael reduced his legal fees to twenty thousand dollars
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] so that they cut that out so they they couldn't have a lien on his house anymore so he did away with that and then he went to the bank because the bank gave him apparently some extra credit because they had that lien well s ince they didn't have the lien anymore they couldn't have the credit from the bank so that that got the firm in hot water
[speaker002:] oh
[speaker001:] and then then Michael went to court and and uh petitioned that they needed to go into solvency because they were so financially in bad shape
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] and uh they all showed up in court um Leland was going to try a motion make a motion before that so they ended up both being in court in front of the judge pleading their case and um I think I think Michael was doing it on the one hand and the guy that do you remember the guy that that uh Grace had an affair with the other lawyer that she had an affair with for a while kind of an older guy she
[speaker002:] at the firm
[speaker001:] no he wasn't at the firm he was like Rosalyn Chase's lawyer before
[speaker002:] oh
[speaker001:] it was earlier in the season she had an affair with this other lawyer
[speaker002:] no I guess I didn't see those
[speaker001:] and and anyway Leland Leland apparently has hired him on now and he's and he's defending this case
[speaker002:] jeez
[speaker001:] and what happened at the end is the judge um um uh Michael wanted wanted the firm put in receivership and the judge wouldn't do it but he said he he's going to give a like a ten day uh evaluation and he was going to put it in the hands of a businessman to to run it and see if the firm was salvageable or not
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] and and both parties had to come up with with lists of people that were suitable to to run it and he rejected both of the lists and came up with his own person you'll you'll never guess who this person is
[speaker002:] who
[speaker001:] think of the worst well now it might be hard but think of the the worst person that's been on the show uh-huh in in the past two years besides Rosalyn she's dead and gone
[speaker002:] yeah she's that was weird that was very weird um the worst person
[speaker001:] goofy
[speaker002:] I don't know
[speaker001:] you'll never get it it's it's uh was it Roxanne
[speaker002:] Roxanne the the secretary
[speaker001:] Roxanne's ex-husband
[speaker002:] David Meyer well he's got a lot of business smarts though
[speaker001:] yeah I know that's who he put in charge of the firm you
[speaker002:] I think what she did to him was a travesty
[speaker001:] yeah but he's going to be he's going to be running the firm for the next I don't know ten days or whatever to evaluate
[speaker002:] that's funny boy they've really got their uh talk about a genealogy chart
[speaker001:] yeah that's pretty pretty strange well they they've already said that um who is it I guess it's Susan Dey and and uh whoever plays Kuzak isn't coming back next year so some of this some of this has to do with why they're not coming back I guess
[speaker002:] yeah well is um the tax attorney and his wife still married married
[speaker001:] yeah they're going to stay there in fact um Susan Dey and and uh the the wife had had a confrontation about it
[speaker002:] oh
[speaker001:] why why they didn't invite them and and the the firm that Kuzak founded is just a litigation firm and they said well we wanted we wanted you but we didn't really want Stuart  because he's not a litigationist and we didn't figure you you would come without him and and we're going to be fighting against each other so
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] oh so it's just kind of weird
[speaker002:] that that's a weird marriage
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] they're married in real life
[speaker001:] I know
[speaker002:] I know they've had I was surprised when they started having big problems and then I only caught part of the episode where he went on that uh nature deal
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] and and he got real into it I guess
[speaker001:] yeah yeah that was kind of bizarre yeah it's interesting to talk about their marriage their marriage in real life because she had breast cancer and that
[speaker002:] oh she did
[speaker001:] yeah and that was real tough for him and there were some times on the show where there were some real emotional things going on with the
