Ignore IS a wonderful feature................

Yeah, when you want to get rid of spammer or something. It's kind of a weak move on a person to put someone on ignore because he was "mean to me on the internet." Lol.

It's interesting how a TV-show about lawyers has gotten you so riled up. They're supposed to be mean to each other, why do you think they went through law school, to sit down and talk problems over a cup of tea? If conflicts can be solved with hidden bylaws and obscure paragraphs, be sure that they will use them, it's in their nature.

There's a difference between what you see on Law and Order and this power play between Howard and Chuck because it ultimately comes down to one thing, money. Not even brotherhood is sacred anymore as we learned of late. Say what you will about Jimmy, but he is the only one with a heart and a conscience of the three.

Good for Chuck! So much for the best friend/partener routine. Howard was all on Chuck's side until Chuck's illness could cost the firm more fees in malpractice insurance. What a jerk Howard turned out to be. That's business for ya.

I didn't really see the point of wasting time in the show with Chuck trying to sue the firm. The suit quickly disappeared in the opening scene of the very next episode and the detour served no purpose.
