Not the legal drama I expected it to be.

So I guess this is a case of high expectations ruining the fun for me because I went in with a really high expectations as I really like the actors from their previous works and I really love Legal dramas, but what I saw didn't meet my expectations.

I really liked the characterizations of the leads but I expected a legal drama where more importance is given to legal cases and its investigations, but here that seems to be a very small part of the story. It gave a more melodrama feel than a legal drama feel to me.
Even the cases seem very melodramatic than interesting, especially the episode with her friend's father's inheritance, the ending seemed very illogical to me the way he still gave those evil people his money!

Then there's the repetitiveness of the whole whale scenes... It seemed quite interesting in the beginning of 1st episode, watching the big and beautiful creature flying and jumping and her interesting trivia on them, but by the 4th episode, I was tired of watching it again and again.

I feel this would have been a a really nice movie though and I do hope that they make a movie with the same basic story and characterization where the Fl & Ml are jointly solving some interesting cases. Maybe she can set up a private practice and he can be her partner and they can be those underdog lawyer/paralegal team who go and win against some big mean corporate ones. That would get a 9+ from me but this is unfortunately only a 6.5 rating from me.
