Week #1 Show Teaser Ghost Lawyer

Jay's nerves are shot. He's getting his first paycheck as a writer, but at what cost? Artistic integrity, respect, self-esteem - all of the above are long gone, but at least he has his own TV show. It's not his opus, "The Good Lawyer", but something else entirely - "Ghost Lawyer". A lawyer who represents the dead.

Synopsis

Jay's nerves are shot. He's getting his first paycheck as a writer, but at what cost? Artistic integrity, respect, self-esteem - all of the above are long gone, but at least he has his own TV show. It's not his opus, "The Good Lawyer", but something else entirely - "Ghost Lawyer". A lawyer who represents the dead.

Jay pitched the idea off-the-cuff. He felt backed into a corner, confused and defeated, but the execs loved it and his knees buckled at the sight of a contract.

Ghosts, courtrooms, empty witness stands, clients who may not even exist, and a heavy dose of REJUSTICE, Ghost Lawyer won't write itself and Jay certainly won't attempt it while sober.

    I'm a fan of ghosts and supernatural shows and movies. Haven't seen many funny ones outside of the Scary movie franchise. This is one I will look forward to

    Some of the teasers are quite funny, I like the premise and the lead actor has great comedic presence. At the same time, the premise as currently presented seems like it would deflate halfway through the first episode - I'd like to see the absurdity fleshed out a lot more into a story worth following (or just a sketch series).

    The teaser looks promising but the hype video could have been a lot more creative.

    Could be OK. Was turned off by the visual.representation of the ghosts. Would have to see what the lawyer can do for them.
