"My Own Worst Enemy" -- Wow, Christian Slater looks nothing like Ben Silverman. That takes guts, to cast a show counterintuitively. -- Rob

Well she was being completely wasted on Boston Legal, her character was usually an afterthought if any, so it makes sense she'd move on to something else.

So is she leaving Boston Legal? Isn't that kind of important news also?

How does his character "come to realize he moonlights as a spy?" Does he have amnesia? Or did you mean his family/friends/girlfriend/whatever comes to realize that he is keeping his spy life secret?

Did you know that in real life, she's the lesbian lover of Harry Potter's Aunt Petunia? I can't see her in Boston Legal without getting giggling fits. The imagery is too insane. Not that James Spader is all that handsome anymore, but Aunt Petunia?
