    A total disapointment. As I was watching I found myself saying who cares. Thie show is very mediocre at best. I expect better from Dick Wolf.

    It's LA Law for the new millenium, but it has too many young faces with no elder statesman to guide them. Acting is better than average; script is okay; situations seem realistic. I can't figure out who the "star" of the show is, but the "newbie" is mercilessly teased by his co-workers. Hazing is banned at most college fraternities, and should not be part of this show.

    I love the legal stuff, but why all the sex? Isn't it a little overkill?

    Astoundingly boring and uninspired. [3 Mar 2006, p.91]

    A far cry from Boston Legal or even The Practice, this is so clumsy in its mix of the procedural and the personal that it should barely be legal.

    "Conviction" does exhibit a bit more creative promise than "Trial by Jury."
