But what Harm questioned initially when Mac was a judge was her being picked over him, not that he expected her to hold him to a higher standard all of a sudden. His frustration with her actual decisions came only after they were in court. Mac, on the other hand, questioned his objectivity from the second AJ assigned Harm to be the judge on the case. And given the inconsistent writing this season, I'd agree with your assessment of what we see vs. what DPB intended us to see. -- Dress Whites And Roses

In reply to: JNTS 's message, "I gotta disagree on one point, remember in Ready or Not, Harm questioned AJ's decision before they reached the courtroom too, so IMHO both Mac & Harm had problems with the other being assigned Judgeship over the other. I have other issues as well, which I'll post inside, but first let me say that I really expected more from a Sweeps ep, this one to me was lacking, & not the kind of fireworks that some expected to see...I think the ratings (weren't they down, I know AI beat JAG badly again) reflected that this wasn't much of an ep, for Sweeps that is...okay inside..." on 17:17:54 02/13/03 Thu

See I saw that one differently...I agree that Harm was miffed that Mac was chosen first, but I also thought his questioning of AJ's decision was also a round-about way for Harm to question Mac's ability. And from what I saw in FF, Harm was most definitely biased, & Mac had every right to be concerned, Coates knew Harm was favoring the defense....should Mac of handled it better? Yeah, but she was right with her assessment, she just shouldn't of been so vocal, LOL!! (NT) -- JNTS (waving at Tracy), 21:12:37 02/18/03 Tue
- Well, Mac didn't exactly win any points in the judge debate this week. Yes, Bud had a loser client. And yes, there was no jury so it was up to Mac to decide the case. But could she have at least let Bud finish presenting his case before she started snickering and sighing and generally making her opinion of the case known? (NT) -- Tracy, 09:42:27 02/19/03 Wed
  - I agree there, yes Mac was the JUDGE & JURY, but she should've let Bud finish...however, Bud really should've tried to negotiate a plea, this was a stupid case that should never of been brought to trial. I think Mac was the only one who picked up on the difference between "respecting females" & "respecting the female body" but I'm not a *fan* of the Judgeship story arc, & this was planned (well initially anyway) before CB's pregnancy, & it was IMHO a mistake...neither M&H should be Judges, let them be lawyers & do what the do best!!
