Sure hope he and Shatner finally get a chance to meet, even if it's off camera.

Man, I love it! Boston Legal has waned a little this year, in my opinion. I think bringing Bakula on would be welcome.

I'm soooo excited about him and Alan Shore going mano y mano. I always thought Scott would play a nice sympathetic environmental lawyer who Alan crushes.

Also, the cool thing is because of his role, Scott may show up again -- both as prosecutor and Shirley's ex-beau.

Don't want to count any chickens before they're hatched but man, having Scott do a recurring role (even if it's only now and then) would be AWESOME!

Seems kinda impossible for them not to have him comeback ... unless this is their last season, which it very well could be.

There's no mention of when! I gotta be able to tape it...

 

[commodore64]

They may not know with the writer's strike exactly when it's going to air.

According to this, the episode is scheduled for January 22nd.

Awww, only one episode!

We need nielsen families to at least tape it even if they don't watch! If BL gets a bump in ratings they might bring him back! (Yeah I know it's popular already...)

Well, it starts with one episode, and can grow from there.

After all, Tom Selleck started out the same way - one guest spot as a former Schmidthead, and then he just kept comin' back.

Yeah, I don't think Bakula will have any trouble getting good ratings. Thanks for the info, HR!

Yeah, and if Carl sees Shirley's ex and gets jealous, all the more reason for him to come back. Plus, Kelley always gets in a Star Trek dig and if Bakula and Shatner aren't in a scene together, all the more reason ... especially since Denny's heart will be broken as well.

FYI: this week's TV Guide puts the scoop in writing. Ausiello's column is printed there with a pic of Scott. Let the ratings rise!!!
