Out from under McConaughey's shadow

A nice little television program peeks out

We just finished Season 1 of Netflix’s The Lincoln Lawyer, based on the Michael Connelly series of novels.

Here’s how IMDB describes it:

“An iconoclastic idealist runs his law practice out of the back of his Lincoln Town Car in this series based on Michael Connelly's bestselling novels.”

It is a far better “television” experience than I anticipated.

A few months back we wrote about the 2011 motion picture of the same name starring Matthew McConaughey.

The movie caught me by surprise because I was watching it ten years after it was released, and I hadn’t really heard about it before. Turned out to be a good flick.

At its conclusion, I was begging for a sequel or a TV show to continue the franchise. Little did I know, Netflix already had it in development.

Here’s a little bit of what I wrote before I knew there was a series in the works or that they had already started filming:

It stopped making me wonder why McConaughey is doing those Lincoln car commercials.
