Oh well, maybe it will fare better than "The Client" when that was turned into a tv series.


Still call total BS on how the movie's ending differed from the novel, think Tom Cruise requested the change.

That's why there is a time jump to account for at least some of the big gap. I have never read Grisham before, what was the difference?

I second Chandler, I think he'd be great in this! I always enjoy him in everything he does. I wish they'd release the rest of Early Edition and the uncut versions of Friday Night Lights on DVD...

I think this show definitely has potential though. If the cast is right, it could be very good.

Not sure if I would have liked that ending.

Grisham himself admitted he didn't know how to end his book.

Haha well that's always reassuring when people read 600 pages of your work and you burn them with a bad ending.
