Review of Murder One

Murder One (1995–1997)
7/10
The memorable jury selection episode
9 March 2016
Warning: Spoilers
I was a big fan of season 1, and for me the jury selection episode really stuck out. Here you had the defence team running out of juror challenges and they had a last ditched attempt to have the judge bar a juror based on views unsupportive to their client.

All credit to the writers and editors (and the director and actors of course!) for making this episode very suspenseful, even though there was no action (car chases, buildings blown up, punch-ups, etc). It was pure suspense as to whether the juror would be barred from the jury.

I hope that maybe Netflix can reboot Murder One, given that 24 is a series that sort of adopted a similar premise.
