TV Series (2007-2012). A legal thriller set in the world of New York City high-stakes litigation. The series, which provides a view into the true nature of power and success, follows the turbulent lives of Patty Hewes, the nation's most revered and reviled high-stakes litigator, and her bright, ambitious, protégé Ellen Parsons as they become embroiled in a class action lawsuit targeting the allegedly corrupt Arthur Frobisher, one of the country's wealthiest CEOs. As Patty battles with Frobisher and his attorney Ray Fiske, Ellen Parsons will be front and center witnessing just what it takes to win at all costs, as it quickly becomes clear that lives, as well as fortunes, may be at stake. |
| PRO REVIEWS |
----------------------------------------
"'Damages' is an enjoyably complex thriller. Rating: ***1/2 (out fo four)" (Robert Bianco: USA Today)
----------------------------------------
"An impressively constructed thriller and an intriguing, timely exploration of what people at the apex of society will do to hold on to their power" (Maureen Ryan: Chicago Tribune)
----------------------------------------
"Who's a villain and who's a hero here? Can you tell the pawns from the players? All excellent questions as we become absorbed in FX's latest thrill ride" (Matt Roush: TV Guide)
----------------------------------------
"The producers have assembled a solid cast and deftly employ flashbacks to ratchet up suspense" (Brian Lowry: Variety)
----------------------------------------
"All in all, a great good time with not one single character to like. Now, that's entertainment!. Rating: *** (out of four)" (Linda Stasi: New York Post)
----------------------------------------
"It's a lot to juggle, but you can count on the payoff to be worth the trouble. Power, weakness, greed, violence--what's not to like?" (Paige Wiser: Chicago Sun-Times)
----------------------------------------
"Devious Patty is still drinking like a fish, while Ellen is still seeking her advice (still, Ellen? Really?), and I still will not be able to resist watching every episode I possibly can" (Ken Tucker: Entertainment Weekly)
----------------------------------------
"The show has become a little like legal '24' for me: lots of talent and strong performances, but it has increasingly seemed to strain to up its stakes in its one-case-a-season format" (James Poniewozik: Time)
