This is a silly request, but can you review the 2000 "Nuremberg" miniseries? (or some other adaptation of those events). Took some artistic liberties but I like how that version included the real life psychologist who profiled the Nazi defendants, and it the central theme it dealt with was picking apart the defense of "we were just following orders" ("you enabled this, every time Hitler did something you clapped, and you always had the option to resign") and also "they really don't think they did anything wrong" ("they knew what they were doing was wrong but thought they could get away with it, and in the cases where they were so delusional they didn't that doesn't remove society's right to judge them"). Seems more relevant these days with all the trials for the Trump cronies after January 6th etc., who are trying to shift blame off of themselves.

Supergirl season 5 epi 13. A section of the fans would have liked to see a romantic relationship between Kara Danvers and Lena Luthor. This episode is in the spirit of It's a Wonderful Life and explores their friendship and whether or not their friendship could have been saved if Kara told Lena sooner about being Supergirl. In one version Lena has to testify and is asked if she knows the identity of Supergirl. She pleads the 5th. Starting a whole discussion among fans in which circumstances you can plead the 5th and whether or not this implies Lena and Kara were married in this version. Thanks!

In defense of NCIS. they did make it clear that Gibbs was a special case. As one Director said to his predecessor, "Gibbs, given leeway, gets results." So the premise was that Gibbs and his team were sort of Special Operations cops, used only on special cases. A justification that the spin-offs lack. Similarly the original CSI had the premise of a forensics tech who was a former detective, medically unfit for duty as a cop but still good at things like interrogation. It was a special circumstance where the detectives let him get more involved with the investigations that is normal. And again, a justification that the spin-offs lacked.

As Spencer is obviously a JAG fan I am sure he already knows the answer to the question of should Harm be wearing his wings throughout this episode or not, lol. The answer though is yes, he should. He was an aviator first and was assigned to a squadron. However due to a night blindness condition he crashed a Tomcat and was reassigned (after learning the law) to JAG. In the future its found out that the night blindness was a wrong diagnoses and he just has something wrong with his eyes that gets fixed by laser surgery allowing him to fly again.

The NCIS franchise was BORN from a 2 episode backdoor pilot on JAG Harm was accused of murder and Gibbs and Ducky were investing him. The Franchise OWES its existence to JAG It would have been sacrilege to not mention it and the fine line they stomped on of which investigates what. An even better fact: JAG was CANCELLED after it's first season We wouldn't have NCIS if the show hadn't been rescued by CBS You see: NBC and Bellisario weren't on good terms and the network undermined the show. NBC forced him to replace LT Pike with a blond co-star, be more action and less legal, etc. They then CANCELLED the series without airing the last episode because their meddling made ratings ho-hum. CBS grabbed it from the cancel pile and let Bellisario do what he wanted. They replaced Navy LT JG Austin with Marine Major Mackenzie and the rest is history. That save from cancellation made CBS some BIG bucks; not only from 9 years of JAG but the ENTIRE NCIS franchise All from saving a cancelled show from oblivion The epitome of a show saved from cancellation and making it big is JAG

@JakeSezz 9 месяцев назад

I’m a random USN E5, but if memory serves, depending on the ADM’s position within the CoC, would then determine which legal path it could take. Let’s say if he’s the 5th Fleet Admiral, it would take the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO and the top of the Navy Officer food chain of command) or SECNAV to escalate the matter. But, we both know, if it’s a JO or lower Enlisted, they’re pretty boned. Unless, of course, the Sailor & Skipper determine a Captain’s Mast is preferable. In which case, it could be anywhere from the standard 45/45/half-a-month’s x2, all the way up to a bread & water rationing (which is still used in the Navy, but for no more than 3 days).

NBC forced him to replace LT Pike with a blond co-star, be more action and less legal, etc. They then CANCELLED the series without airing the last episode because their meddling made ratings ho-hum. CBS grabbed it from the cancel pile and let Bellisario do what he wanted. They replaced Navy LT JG Austin with Marine Major Mackenzie and the rest is history. That save from cancellation made CBS some BIG bucks; not only from 9 years of JAG but the ENTIRE NCIS franchise All from saving a cancelled show from oblivion The epitome of a show saved from cancellation and making it big is JAG

IF I'm remembering correctly, from a show I haven't watched in 20 years or so, they do eventually explain why Lt. Rabb stoppd wearing his wings. He did complete flight school and was an active aviator for a while. Unfortunately, he suffered an injury that caused him to develop night blidness, which permanently disqualified him from active flight duty. He transferred into the JAG Corps after that. It is because he essentially couldn't fly any more that he stopped wearing his wings, but he had legitimately earned them, along with his callsign.

@ChibiHoshiDragon 9 месяцев назад

He suffered an injury and it was MISDIAGNOSED as night blindness AFTER his RIO DIED in an accident. He stopped wearing his wings because he felt GUILTY over the death.

With much respect to the lawyer, this episode of JAG deserves a D- at best for military accuracy. There is so much that is just pure lunacy. I spent 4 years on an aircraft carrier, and nothing about this episode passes the smell test. We are extremely careful when moving elevators; depending on the ship I don't think one could possibly transit from the catwalk to the elevator. The discussions by the senior officers would NEVER be held where they were. At night, you can't see anything on the other side of the flight deck; certainly not a person's head poking up. No one would even allow someone to set foot on an active flight deck while wearing their cover. And that's just the stuff I can recall from watching this video; I'm sure there was much more in the actual episode. And I'm pretty sure the JAG office would not be summoned to the White House to brief the first lady, even if she is Hillary Clinton. Sorry guys, but this Navy veteran cries foul.

@Ravus_Sapiens 9 месяцев назад

Hello! I had a suggestion about a show that could be lawyered: Black Mirror. It's insanely popular, so it would probably get a lot of views, but also because each episode is a different storyline, It has the potential to become a series as well. I just think some of the episodes bring up great points about privacy and technology (like the one about the mother watching what her daughter is doing through the implant in her head), which could be explained from a lawyer standpoint, and the issue of which is very prevalent in our society these days.

I loved this show as a kid and I realized a interesting thing about Harms character when I saw it again in my late teens.

Ik you covered Star Trek already, and the episode was more of a military tribunal than a full court case so we were left a little bit in the dark on Federation court proceedings and how they work. The newest season of Strange New Worlds’ episode 2 is a full on court martial episode related to cultural discrimination and I would love to see your take on the matter when compared to contemporary American law. Another good law episode for Star Trek is Voyager’s Death Wish: this episode is related to the acceptability of assisted suicide within the law.
