Newly retired, watching all the TV that I never knew existed. That Alan Shore was one of the best characters I've ever seen. Love James Spader!
And yet in spite of all the smart-assery, no one showed more humanity in moments of seriousness than Alan Shore.
Agreed!!!
If there is a more fun, quirky, and interesting actor on the planet than Mr. Spader, I can't think of one. The man is a unique in a world full of plastics.
Well said!! I agree 100%
I think Huge Laurie comes close. But Spader is just on another level.
Dinklage too
@@RetroTekGuyAU they are on different paths quirky. Laurie has the more deliberate quirkieness while Spader has the whole playful jumpy kind.
Spader is awesome. Walken also come to mind.
- Do you think there is a better actor for this role?
- We don't admit that there is a role at all. And if it is, we don't admit that a better actor exists. And if it does, we don't admit he is among us. And if he is, he's from another planet! James Spader is just him here! GOAT!! :D
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the character of Alan Shore. The best ever on any series. And I adore James Spader. From his early work to his current Raymond Reddington character (not to mention the Secretary's boss, , , sigh) he's always excellent.
personally one of the best tv show characters period.
Agreed.
Was spader in all the seasons of the practice? I never got to see it. But I have Boston legal memorized. Lol
+Eric Ostling only on season 8 :D
Not just the character, the whole show was well written, even with all the humour there were moments when pulled pretty deep issues and sentiments...
Once Lukas Reiter & James Spader found each other, there was no stopping them. And through "The Practice", "Boston Legal", and now on "The Blacklist", still Reiter/Spader rule. Not much has been said about them being a dynamic duo which is surprising as there must be some reason those two brilliant minds are hip to hip for all these years.
And much agreed....even in this video from the ALWAYS talented +Lachka, it centers on the show's levity but the writers/producers were very, shall we say, Liberal, in their points of view. They spoke on just about every topic one could legally touch on from murder to stuffing one's own Mother's head and mounting it (that would be 'The Practice')....but you get my point.
'Boston Legal' had a ton of super emotional moments no matter how funny it may have been it was definitely a poignant show which is why it garnered as many Emmy nods and wins as it did. Just with Spader alone, he broke the mold being nominated and winning having two shows being up at one time...a first for Emmy historians.
Sorely missed but as with all good things......fortunately, with a much darker turn, we still have Mr. Spader on "The Blacklist", and he delivers just as great a performance. He and the creators mix inside the character Raymond 'Red' Reddington, the same kind of humor and serious qualities of Alan Shore with similar morality as well, except in this current role, instead of being a sex driven attorney, he tends to kill people more than have sex with them. Heh. Never the less, it makes for awesome television and whomever liked him as Alan Shore all those years MUST taste him as Red on "The Blacklist". NBC, Thursdays at 10PM (EST) (UTC +5) - If you haven't seen it yet, you really must give it a go and do not deny yourself watching at least the Pilot episode found on Netflix and I am sure floating around elsewhere on the Internet.
Be well, be kind, be blessed!
Mr. Spader is the most charismatic man on screen I've ever seen
He is. There’s nothing sexier than a brilliant man in a well-tailored suit.
He is soooooooooo Perfect 😍😍😍
Best show reel of Alan Shore ever. Damn James Spader is genius.
James Spader was tailor made for this role
Mr. James Spader what a talent you are. And now I am watching you in The Blacklist, what a blessing!
Was my very favorite TV show ever.
Plain an simple i love boston legal best show EVER!!!
God, how I miss Alan Shore. And those balcony closing scenes with Denny... what could a bromance ask for more . I've never watched the final season of The Practice, though. Everyone says Alan do crazy things there. I gotta watch it ASAP :D
+Carolz The best way to appreciate the epicness is to start with Ally McBeal and work your way up the timeline. Not sure I would want to repeat The Practice all the way through though.
The man won 2 Emmys for the same role but in two different TV shows
He is like the lawyer version of House
TheFranBear Exactly why I love both of them ! It's amazing how we don't change, Alan Shore was my favorite TV character when I was younger and right now it's House.
The same goes for Sherlock
Sort of, but not so mean and misanthropic. I think he's the lawyer version of Hawkeye Pierce. Brilliant, funny, irreverent, cynical yet still rises to the ideal of helping those in need, iconoclastic, lovable philanderer. The show was basically MASH with lawyers instead of doctors.
TheFranBear imagine a collab..,
was just thinking that
I love this man. And now with the Blacklist even more
Awesome video, in every respect. Alan Shore is an icon, and James Spader is an absolute genius, and no other actor could ever have brought more to that character than he. In any role he plays, from "Two Days in the Vally", to "Boston Legal", to "Blacklist", ...James Spader has my respect FOREVER!
There will only be one James Spader in our lifetime and I'm really glad I am part of it~!!! Thanks for putting this on here to be enjoyed again and again.
Perfect casting for such a perfect character
Bring the series back!!!
Ok! That's it! I'm calling it!!! Before he became Raymond Red Reddington he was the Sassy Alan Shore!!! THIS....to me...is canon.
I agree!!!
But even more canon than that, is before all that he was Daniel Jackson.....
@@madcapmagician3130 damn stargate huh
Maybe he felt bored with lawyer job and became a criminal mastermind. Boston Legal could be a fitting prequel.
There were actually a few veiled references in blacklist of boston legal incidents
I watch this video everyday. It’s a goddamn treasure.
Damn I need to rewatch this show!
Alan Shore is one of TV's best characters. And then, along comes Raymond Reddington, another great character. Mr. Spader is fantastic.
Here, Here!
Best actor. Best TV character.
James Spader is an absolutely brilliant actor!
This was fantastic. Spader was criminally underrated on this show.
I see why he’s in Blacklist now, brilliant
Encantador, excelente actor.
I can’t believe I haven’t heard about this show...I’m binge watching on Prime!!! I love this guy!!
Some of these scenes are from the Practice. Love James Spader as Alan Shore!
Love love love love this & James Spader
WHY?! Why does nobody I ever ask know this show, this brilliant protagonist and his brilliant spaceship-captain sidekick?!
And when I'm refering to this, they say to me, this show is old and there is so much new stuff on Netflix and so on. But not something like THAT! *breaking out in tears*
Thank you, Sir! With this video, you gave me a little peace back. *melodramatic turn in a pink flamingo costume*
My response would be .. Yes there is new stuff out there.. But it has got no match to the research and art that this has got.. Tell them "You guys are still too far from the showmanship of " Danny Crane &Alan Shore" (speaking character-wise which is justified by Bill & James) .. Best Bromance ever
Asking the wrong people bud, keep your eyes out for flimingos, we exist.
When I was in law school we all watched this religiously. Then came Suits which was nice addition. But Alan and Danny are unbeatable lawyers character-wise.
it's on Hulu now, so rec it to everybody you can! starting with last season of hulu.com/the-practice (s8 = s0 of BL) then here's the rest! hulu.com/boston-legal enjoy! ♡
It's also on Disney+ :)
Spader has 0 filters when acting, his fantastic
Spader just oozes swagger in his roles as Alan Shore and Raymond Reddington.
That was the best 3 minutes and 40 seconds of my life.
Thank you, wonderful creator of this masterpiece.
Everyone needs to check this out! Finally a series of Alan Shore!
czcams.com/video/cAh8_mHvSrk/video.html
I watch this at least once a week. God forbid they ever strike it again. Alan Shore was full of little "wisdoms" he liked to "impart" on ppl like Eugene😉, but they ended up in my diaries, lol.
So do I - if anything just to imitate his confidence
His lashes and lips, and the way he smiles... drives me crazy...
Great actor!!!!!!
Lol, this is so awesome. James Spader is such an amazing actor and gorgeous.
Those eyelashes thou!
Complete package.
James Spader you're the best
Strange thing, but I've never seen Boston Legal before. But of course I'm gonna do that now. I've been loving James Spader sinse Stargate and The Wolf. Very, very handsome, charming man and talented actor. All the season BL - can't wait to start watching!!!!
+Olga Grishina Did you see The Secretray? That is my favourite role of his, along with this.
+51stcenturygirl Yeeeesss, I did!!! Twice for the last month.
+Olga Grishina gah /Secretary/ Good for you! Heh, I've seen it twice last week. Became a bit obssesed with the film. I sort of re-discovered it - I think I have seen a part of it years ago and then I watched now cos of recommendation. Wow! It immediately became one of my favourite films ever (and I don't watch them a lot). All around quality film from script to actors. Gyllenhaal and Spader are brilliant!
+51stcenturygirl... It's been a great fun to watch Spader in The Practice. He has obvious comic talent. Also can't stop watching 'The Tonight Show' starr. Fallon, where James tells about his stereo and that he's in the habit of playing music pretty loud....)))) Poor neighbours ))). He is just sooo sweet, magnetic, funny!!!
Oh my gosh: "Crash"!!! (The one about CAR CRASHES & sex!)
I am so glad this exists.
He's born for this and the blacklist..
It's more a testament to James Spader's awesome acting. He always finds some quirky traits in a character and somehow he translates this, through his mannerism and voice, into ambiguity. It intrigues us and makes us both love and dislike the character. Have not seen any other actor do this as well as Mr Spader.
I love this show !!🤣
Brilliant work
VERY hard to believe that this is the same man who played a creepy as *HELL* Ultron in the MCU...
He's a truly versatile actor
Thank you so much to reminding me of how much I enjoyed Spader's Alan Shore. Hillarious and brillianty edited video for a great character.
1:19 judge ask Alan Shore do he have the murder weapon which was a knife in his possession and his answer is, "We don't admit there was a murder and if there was, we don't admit it was accomplished with a knife, and if it was we don't admit the knife exist, and if it does we don't admit it".
Fantastic tribute to one of the best characters ever!
This makes me so happy! 😍 Thank you again! 💗💞
this is awesome on so many levels
I am watching everything from the practice s8 to Boston legal again
Allan Shore you are simply awesome....true blue entertainment.
This is amazing!!!! I miss Boston Legal... Alan Shore and James Spader are the absolute best. Thank you so much for vidding them!
A magnificent video that every Alan Shore/James Spader fan should see.
Thank you so much for uploading.
Great work! I love this show and this is a great video to send people to get them to love it as much as I do.
Это потрясающе! Слов нет. Просто сижу и улыбаюсь. Ах, Спэйдер такой прекрасный, что плакать хочется. Спасибо вам за это замечательное видео.
This video is SO well done! Awesome pacing with the music.
This really made my day
i miss this show
Truly one the Best Experiences is Alan Shore at work and play.
Alan Shore and Denny Crane were two best entertaining fictional characters ever written. Denny Crane - - Name on the door. :)
Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Totally agree with you! ALAN SHORE,one of the best tv-characters ever!!! Great video:)
it's 2016 and i am bench watching this show, it's amazing!! :D
Feb.7: Happy birthday Actor James Spader. "Boston Legal" "The Blacklist" "Sex, Lies and Videotape." Thanks you and God bless. Thanks for the upload, Lachka. Tha's my Man. Blessings
This video is like... My wish granted. Absolutely in love with Alan Shore😍
WOW! Great, great, GREAT video! I can't stop laughing! Such a masterpiece - the video ...and James as Alan! Thank you!
Love this. It also includes lots of clips from the final season of "The Practice".
This was absolutely amazing. I was sitting in the dining room watching it on my laptop, and the others in the kitchen kept asking me what I was laughing at because I couldn't stop.
Fantastic editing, great song, just everything. Ugh. Beautiful :'D
HE IS SO ADORABLE....!!!!!
James Spader is truly an underestimated talent. While he played the same character on The Practice, Boston Legal and The Blacklist, he seems to make these characters look easy to portray. I can’t wait to see his next project.
"if I were kidding I would be standing like this (double gun point winking)"
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is thee best fanvid ever!! I've been responsible for an inaccurate view count since I discovered it a coupla years ago.
Awesome montage of one of the best characters on tv. Well done.
OMG! I needed this! Ty. I love love love this man!
I just love those flamingos !!!
Gosh, I loved this show! James Spader was amazing as Alan Shore, and he continues the good work as Reddington. Pity we live in times that don't exactly favour political incorrectness, in which his characters always excelled :-)
What was so badly needed is for Alan Shore to prosecute Dr. House in court.
OMG! This is so awesome! I love every single second of it! such a great video! thank you so much for sharing with us! :-)
Oh! Thank you for this fun! So much fun! I was enjoying every second of it!!
I hope to come back in my next life as Alan Shore.
most of this is from The Practice before he was on Boston Legal. Both great shows.
It seems more Boston Legal to me, or at least half & half. Almost all of the sex scenes are B.L. along with the quips about "kidding", not to mention the zany costumes. I love both shows, too.
This guy 🥰
James í Love!
I cant stop laughing. got done watching the video 5 minutes ago and even as im typing i cant stop...
Alan Shore is the reason I’m in law school. I will be just like him and I don’t care what anyone says
Reddington !! 😍 😍 😍
Alan Shore is the one tv Lawyer on THIS PLANET, I would genuinely, willingly commit a crime, just to be represented by him in court.
Yes, but wouldn't mind Cleaver Greene either lol.
Marvelous!!! LOVE this series and your vid...
WOAH, THIS IS AMAZING! Instant fav! Thank you so much for sharing! I love this!!
I love this!!
Love him in the Black List
Jibber Jabber! LOL. Awesome show.
He's a right smug wise ass..... Love him
What a delightful montage 😊
He is fantastic....
A year later and I still absolutely love this video. The music choice, and the clips go together so well. And I was wondering if you'd ever consider making a Robert California video. That was another Spader character I dearly love and for the most part is underappreciated.
I would mary James in a heartbeat and would spend a day of my life whitout a smile on my face!
This was awesome! What a great compilation. Thanks for posting!
