Ally McBeal tv showAlly McBeal is an American comedy-drama series created by David E. Kelley and stars Calista Flockhart in the title role as a young lawyer working in the fictional Boston law firm (Cage, Fish, and Associates). The show was aired on the Fox network for five seasons, from 1997 to 2002.

The tv show focused on the romantic and personal lives of young lawyers, often using legal proceedings as plot devices to contrast or reinforce a character's drama. The main characters' lives and loves were portrayed as eccentric, humorous, and dramatic. Opposing legal arguments were also frequently used to explore multiple sides of various social issues.

Ally and her colleagues' working place is depicted as a highly sexualized environment, symbolized by its unisex public restroom. Lawyers and secretaries in the firm routinely date, flirt with, or have a romantic history with each other, and frequently run into former or potential romantic interests in the courtroom or on the street outside.
