Courtroom scenes in TV shows have always been dramatic and captivating. This article explores the best courtroom scenes in television history and how they engage the audience.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Courtroom scenes and legal shows have inherent drama and shocking plot twists, and the most unforgettable courtroom scenes in TV shows all rise above their competitors to stand out in television history. The best courtroom scenes don't have to take place in shows that deal with lawyers and legal drama.

Cast Patrick J. Adams , Sarah Rafferty , Gabriel Macht , Meghan Markle , Rick Hoffman , Gina Torres , Amanda Schull , Dule Hill , Katherine Heigl Release Date June 23, 2011 Seasons 9 Showrunner Aaron Korsh Suits' best courtroom scenes were few and far between because, as high-powered corporate lawyers, the characters on the show avoided going to trial at all costs.

Cast Bob Odenkirk , Rhea Seehorn , Jonathan Banks , Patrick Fabian , Michael Mando , Giancarlo Esposito Release Date February 8, 2015 Seasons 6 Writers Peter Gould , Vince Gilligan Directors Vince Gilligan , John Shiban , Keith Gordon Better Call Saul is the most consistently accurate of all the legal dramas on television because the writers brought in real lawyers to consult on how the courtroom scenes play out.

In one of Sam Waterston's best episodes of Law & Order, Jack McCoy has to persecute the murderers who targeted a young family and follow the trail of corruption that led to the shocking death of his partner, Alexandra Borgia . Though Borgia wasn't part of the DA's office for long, she made a lasting impact on Law & Order, and she's tragically killed while investigating the case because she was getting too close to the heart of a conspiracy.

Despite the personal dramas that keep the audience coming back for more, The Good Wife is most memorable because of its well-crafted courtroom scenes and the legal jargon the characters utilize throughout the episodes. In the premiere of season 2, there is a shocking break of etiquette in the courtroom when the judge berates Alicia's client for invoking the Fifth Amendment.

Not only is it the perfect end to her case, but it parallels the journey of her character on the show. She's defending herself and is finally coming clean about who she is as a person and a lawyer to the jury and herself. How To Get Away With Murder doesn't excuse Annalise for her actions, but it puts them in the context of a world that has never accepted her for who she is, but at the end of the series she is finally ready to accept herself.
