Ally McBeal

Eccentric, humorous and dramatic, Ally McBeal comes in at number three. Played by Golden Globe® winner Calista Flockhart in the title role, Ally McBeal is a young lawyer working in the fictional Boston law firm Cage, Fish & Associates.

A woman who believes in love and is continually looking for her soul mate, Ally often hears songs in her head and suffers from hallucinations, mostly of a dancing baby...

Grace Van Owen - L.A. Law

L.A. Law’s savvy and compassionate Grace Van Owen, played by Golden Globe® winner Susan Dey comes in at number four.

Deputy D.A Grace Van Owen isn’t afraid of putting her colleagues in their place with her witty and sometimes sobering comments.

Who can forget when she told Michael Kuzak that he'd have to be a monkey before she'd be interested in him? Her softer side emerges when she is later wooed by Kozac himself, on the courthouse steps... wearing nothing but a monkey suit.

Patty Hewes - Damages

Known as a successful and hard-hitting high stakes litigator in Damages, Patty Hewes of Hewes Associates comes in at number nine.

Played by Emmy Award® winning Glenn Close, Patty is known as ruthless but brilliant, taking bright and sharp law school graduate Ellen Parsons under her wing, and grooming her to become the best. Successful and hard-hitting Patty enjoys playing mind games with consummate skill and is known for being silky, seductive, cold and ruthless - she can sweet-talk or threaten with equal dispatch.

Boston Legal Season Four is out now on DVD.
