Anyone here watch Shark? It's a legal-drama on CBS (Sunday nights, 9 PM CST) starring famous movie actor James Woods. He plays a legendary, playboy defense attorney who has an attack of the conscience and begins to work for his former nemesis in the D.A's office.

Shark is great. I love how James Woods is in this. He does whatever it takes to get the job done and doesn't care how dirty he has to get. And the serial killer that defends himself is an awesome villain. I hope he continues throught the series as a constintly returning villain.

Agreed. This role was perfect for Woods; I don't think any other actor could have done a better job. Brilliant, sarcastic, ruthless. This guy is a deadlier version of House.
The serial killer in question, I think, has been dealt with permenantly. Have you watched the season one finale?

If its the episode I'm thinking about I have. But in that same episode he even told Stark he was taking his case to appeal. Not to meantion now that he knows how Stark pulled it off.

I know the show you're talking about. It starred Billy Campbell. The show ended with Stark and Wayne talking while Wayne was in jail awaiting another trial. I'm not sure, but I think Wayne Callison will be returning later this season. I will try to see if I can't confirm this.
Sort've. House and Stark certainly have similarities. Both of them are brilliant and legendary in their particular line of work. Both of them are sarcastic and witty. But, then again, note that House is completely embittered and has zero charisma. Stark, on the other hand, is very charismatic and he enjoys what he does [by that, I mean annoying and hurting people].
There are multiple types of appeal; James Woods portrays Stark with obvious charisma -- that is to say that he is more apt and more capable to charm and seduce people than Hugh Laurie's House. House can be charming when he wants to be, but this also is accelerated because of his obvious intelligence and candor. But he doesn't measure up to Stark's almost Hitler-esque charisma.
