Eli Stone, an aspiring young lawyer who was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm inherited from his father at the height of his career, has been engulfed in bizarre hallucinations from time to time, which, interestingly, are far from Simple, every time he fell into the illusion, there would be some strange involvement in the lawsuits around him, that is, this illusion could always lead him to pick up some so-called small jobs that he didn't care about, so-called small economic rewards. And will bring him decisive inspiration at critical moments. Since then, everything in his life has changed, and these changes have completely transformed him from a person who only cared about fame and money into a good lawyer who really cares about his victims.
It seems that most of the criteria for evaluating a lawyer drama lies in the excitement of its cases, but for this drama, such evaluation criteria are indeed a bit overwhelming. Because "Eli Stone" is not only about the cases, but more about the human thinking that these cases bring to the protagonist. Each episode of the case will allow the protagonist to re-recognize himself and his emotional life, thus changing every bit of his life. As for the case, although there are not so many complicated and suspenseful suspense, these seemingly trivial civil lawsuits are very pleasing to the audience, and people don't have to rack their brains to sort out the progress of the case. advantage of drama.
So far, the protagonist's emotional line has been basically clear. The screenwriter seems to have intentionally set the character of Eli's fiancee without any personality, and transferred all the audience's preferences to the intern. Personally, it seems that several screenwriters have attempted this On the contrary, it reduces the emotional subdivision of this drama a lot. I mean, only the protagonist himself is still in love with his ex-fiancée among us, and in the eyes of us viewers, with such a far-fetched connection, it's only a matter of time before the disjointed chemistry between the two ends, and the writers have been procrastinating , The embarrassing relationship between the two people for several consecutive episodes has not changed in the slightest. In contrast, the emotional line between the protagonist and the intern has improved a lot in the seventh episode, which makes people look forward to it.
The most successful character setting in the series is estimated to be the protagonist Eli Stone. I don't want to say how handsome the actor is, but the character in the play is a bit confused and can't understand the situation. In addition, the actor's humorous performance adds a lot to this character. Lovely. In addition, it is hard not to like a hot-blooded beautiful intern and a fearless black secretary.
In addition, what may have added a lot to the show is George Michael's music and his own appearance in many episodes. I believe that some people started chasing this drama to a large extent because of such episode settings.
As for the sub-case lines that have appeared in the recent episodes, it is a bit confusing. It is very strange that there are cases in which the non-protagonist participates in such episodes, and such sub-line stories can actually span two. episode, what's more, the debate lawyers are actually Matt and Keith. Keith aside, unpleasant characters like Matt occupy this inexplicable sideline and don't know what these writers are thinking. Going on like this, I doubt that these attempts will affect the frame and themes of the entire show.
In general, the original Eli Stone was simple and cute, and the current Eli Stone can be said to be a lot richer in comparison, although it is difficult to say whether it will be too rich, I just hope that these changes will make the American audience follow suit. I prefer Eli Stone, so I don't suffer misfortune at a young age like Justice.
