Yep. As EP's and showrunners, Patricia Green and Rick Wallace were so bad that Kelley and Bochco had to return at mid-season as consultants. Then, Steven Bochco stayed on as EP (while Kelley left again) until the seventh season, when he hired "St. Elsewhere" vets John Masius & John Tinker to be the show's new showrunners. IIRC, they incorporated the L.A. riots into the storylines. Masius & Tinker were/are great writer/producers, but totally wrong for "L.A. Law." Subsequently, ratings were so bad that the show had to go on hiatus. William M. Finkelstein, who'd worked on the show during the Kelley era, was brought back to fix things. Finkelstein did improve "L.A. Law," but by that point, with so much cast turnover, I think viewers had moved on.

You know, it really galls me that, after everything Trump has done (or not done) these past four years to place us in mortal jeopardy, he tells us to "have a good life." I mean, who does he think he is? Maeve Ryan? Ugh. So glad he is out of the damn office.

Best part of the redo: the return of Clinton's drapes and rug. Bill and Hillary are back in the WH, and I'm sure Fox News and the rest are going apeshit, lol. Hallelujah. That piece of dung NEEDED to be rescinded.

In a way, it doesn't matter to me whether Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are able to keep all their promises that they made to voters during the campaign. I'm just happy to have decency and dignity back in the WH. We need those things (and more!) now more than ever.

They must've exchanged him for the Helen Roper frock she's wearing.

Better than Donald and Melania's first time in front of the WH. In fact, Melania's still waiting for Donald to come around to her side of the car and walk with her up the steps.

She should be feeling good. Every warning she issued about the Trump administration turned out to be 100% correct. And at the end of the day, it's HE, and not SHE, who faces criminal and other charges. God is good. All the time.

Seriously, I keep looking for him to call out Oprah's name like Susan did, lol. They're just upset that Letitia James is waiting for them.

It's nice to hear a President who doesn't blame POC for all the country's ills in his inaugural speech.

“Quite frankly, I think America should just let her go.” I couldn't have said it any better.

And Frankie Beverly! Somebody knew what the [!@#$%^&*] they was doin'!

Let's see Kellyanne "alternative facts" her way out of that!

It took going through four years of hell with Donald Trump to appreciate again a true leader giving the people words of comfort. As Joni Mitchell once said, you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone. I agree! Splitting the GOP in two could only help the Democratic Party going forward. And they say the Obamas are ghetto!

Chances are, if it had been Trump's second inauguration and not Biden and Harris' first, there would've been no mention at all of the pandemic or its' victims. Just a military parade and Toby Keith singing "I'm Proud to Be an American" while standing on some Black men's necks. I don't have to watch that tape to know it's just more lies and self-flattery. Trump's never going to be the kind of president his apologists kept hoping he'd be. Take it, Mariah:

Agree. I don't know how successful Biden's plan for combating the pandemic will be, but you know what? In a way, I don't care. I'm just glad to have someone in D.C. who wants to do something to stop it rather than just throw up their hands and say, "It is what it is."

Chuck Todd: "If Biden doesn't get it right, he will have failed in the job he was elected to do." Oh, and Donald Trump has done a remarkable job keeping us all alive and safe. Give me a damn break. I really, really, REALLY wish Todd and his ilk would go the [!@#$%^&*] away. They're just as culpable in the weakening of American democracy as Trump, QAnon, the right-wing domestic terrorists and everyone else.

You better believe I'm keeping an eye on the WH. I wouldn't put it past Trump to have vacated early so he wouldn't be around when the damn place blew up.

Agree. Its' initial concept -- "The View" for tired mommies? -- was shaky and had to be abandoned almost quickly. Then, once they did, I feel like the viewing public had already moved on.

Whatever. His pillows weren't worth s**t anyway.

To tell a lie, and to tell it so convincingly that others believe you, is one thing. But, when your lies lead people to ransack federal property and place innocent people in jeopardy, regardless of your exact words or intentions, you stop being just a liar, and start being a clear and present danger to everyone around you. And it is NOT the first time Trump's words have led others to commit desperate acts with the assumption that they had his implied approval either. Just ask the individuals who attempted to abduct Gretchen Whitmer. Trump's legal team will argue that he never explicitly told the crowd at the "Stop the Steal" rally to commit acts of terror at the U.S. Capitol, but if "prior bad acts" mean anything at impeachment trials, then Trump's record of volatile and dangerous statements, and the results they produced among his most extremist supporters, must be brought before the Senate as well. Twitter and other social media platforms have banned Trump, not because he's an inveterate liar and they dislike him, but because his lies have literally gotten people killed.

At this point, the Trump administration is just doing random s**t, like an Arby's employee who's actually finished for the day, but who still has ten minutes before he can clock out.

It would've been so easy to hit that fifty-percent mark, too. All he had to do, especially when this pandemic started, was show compassion for someone other than himself. But, he couldn't, and he wouldn't. That's what voting for a raging, incurable narcissist gets you. If nothing else, the last four years -- hell, pretty much Trump's life -- was the pinnacle of male, white mediocrity.

I'll bet even Ivana and Marla got invites.
