Once a powerful lawyer, Billy McBride is now burned out and washed up, spending more time in a bar than a courtroom.
In season 1, when he reluctantly agrees to pursue a wrongful death lawsuit against the biggest client of Cooperman & McBride, the massive law firm he helped create, Billy and his ragtag team uncover a vast and deadly conspiracy, pitting them all in a life or death trial against the ultimate Goliath.
Season 2 has him return to defend a 16-year-old boy accused of a grisly double homicide. Billy, Patty and team fervently build their case in the seedy underworld of LA, squaring off with a dirty cop, a ruthless drug lord and a prosecutor to prove the boy's innocence. As the true culprits come to light, the implications reach as far as the mayoral race and the city's preeminent billionaire developer.
I am not sure of the way that they imagined calling this series "Goliath", it seems a bit pretentious and pompous, and it might put you off what is actually a good programme. It put me off for a long time, but once I got into it, there are eight episodes to a season, and there is only one case per season, meaning that it can be gone into in much more detail, and you get to see what is really going on in the minds of the people involved in each case.
Anymore to come?
