Thanks for the latest news. Will he play an assistant D.A. like Dan Fielding or other legal types like a public defender? The closest we got to see him play another legal type was a judge in Harry Stone's dream where Harry did not exist.

The last time Larroquette worked with Shatner was in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984), where Larroquette played a Klingon to Shatner's Kirk.

When was The last Time he had a Regural Series

nitcrt1 · 06-15-2007, 05:04 PM

John was doing the Hallmark Channel's "McBride." The series itself was/is pretty regular but doesn't air as a normal network series would. He also starred in a sitcom with Christine Baranski but it did not do well. I believe that was a little more than a few years ago. The show was "Happy Family." Other than this, he's just been doing many guest spots.

I know I'm late to this thread because I don't come to Sitcoms Online anymore, but I'm very excited about John coming back to network TV and to something of higher quality than McBride, which was growing increasingly formulamatic and stale.

I found a few high rez photos of him from BL S4 and one of him from the ABC All Star Party 2007 if anybody wants me to post them here. I'm still a HUGE fan and have been prepping by watching tons of Night Court.

I agree with you. I think this is going to be a great move for John. He is in with a very diverse cast with Spader, Shatner and Bergen. I think he will fit right in with this show. I can't wait to see him in action.

McBride was a good show but the mysteries started to get predictable and it was missing something. I thought John was good in it though.

He will be good on Boston League

I thought that the attempt at a relationship between McBride and Roberta was poorly done. It kept switching from movie and movie. At one point they'd be all gaga over each other and then later she'd switch and go off with that jerky lawyer guy she worked with. I was really hoping the woman from Semper Fi would stick around in later movies.
