Hirsch's Bill Herndon was a "de-barred, ex-lawyer alcoholic," he says fondly. "I thought, 'Ooh, let me do that!'"

But FX's gritty legal drama wound up sidelining the character, intriguing as he was, and Hirsch understands the decision. "They didn't have the time or the energy to do it, because they needed to tell all the stories," he says. "They told more important stories, much more important."
