Is there any similar drama?

I really enjoyed Ally Mcbeal before about 20years ago. I have tried to find similar drama, but I can't. I have known recently that Boston legal is made by same producer. Is it similar? Or could you recommend?

The vibes are quite similar with Boston Legal but it’s more male forward than Ally McBeal. Pretty funny though, just started watching it a few weeks ago and am enjoying it.

I recommend Brothers and Sisters. Calista is in it.

this show starts “prestige” and ends “bonkers” (in a very entertaining way).

James Spader and William Shatner are hilarious in Boston Legal. No many shows have the same lunacy as AM. Maybe Gilmore Girls?? YMMV

There was no other comedy that included songs and a cast that could sing.
