A Picket Fences writer described his time on the show as "the most boring period of my life—you'd write a scene... [and Kelley would] rewrite it completely. Or he just cut you out completely—you learned nothing. Having a writing staff was a needless expense for the network."<a href="#cite_note-70">[70]</a> Kelley gradually became more comfortable bringing in writers for ideas and taking over writing responsibilities.<a href="#cite_note-Variety050301-27">[27]</a> Kelley described this as a natural evolution: <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1244412712">.mw-parser-output .templatequote{overflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 32px}.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{line-height:1.5em;text-align:left;margin-top:0}@media(min-width:500px){.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{padding-left:1.6em}}</style><blockquote class="templatequote">There's a period at the beginning of a series [when] you're doing most of the writing and then you go through another period where you have the ideas and you're assigning those stories and ideas to other people and hopefully they execute them.

One method is by introducing provocative legal cases. Episodes have covered the gamut of contemporary issues from the culpability of tobacco companies and gun makers to assisted-suicide crusaders.<a href="#cite_note-salon-39">[39]</a> Another way is by undergirding the character's social interrelationships with serious explorations such as feminism, sexuality and divorce.<a href="#cite_note-abc110306-72">[72]</a> Instead of lessons, Kelley strives to "raise moral and ethical questions without easy answers."<a href="#cite_note-Levine,_David_E_p._31-13">[13]</a> He avoids a <a href="/wiki/Didacticism" title="Didacticism">didactic</a> narrative by not losing sight of the audience's desire to be entertained.<a href="#cite_note-ORLIK-73">[73]</a> He states: <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote">You've got to honor your relationship with your audience—that they sit down because they want to be entertained.

For example, an episode of Ally McBeal dealt with a female employee who sued for sexual harassment because she noticed that other prettier women were being promoted. There was deliberately no clear <a href="/wiki/Perspective_(cognitive)" class="mw-redirect" title="Perspective (cognitive)">point of view</a>.<a href="#cite_note-WP022298-4">[4]</a> Kelley uses humor and the surreal and mixes tragedy with farce.

One crossover program event (which crossed networks also) involved characters from Kelley's Ally McBeal on the Fox network appearing on his ABC show, The Practice, and, in turn, The Practice characters appeared on Ally McBeal. This was done in spite of the two shows' different tones (one a comedy, the other a drama).<a href="#cite_note-CALDWELL-77">[77]</a> This crossover was partially credited for raising ratings for The Practice, which it sustained after those episodes.<a href="#cite_note-Variety0503015-25">[25]</a> Kelley repeated this maneuver with his Boston Public, Ally McBeal, and Boston Legal shows. Thereafter, many other crossovers occurred including shows not created by Kelley.<a href="#cite_note-CALDWELL-77">[77]</a> Kelley's most elaborate crossover was only partially successful. He sought to crossover an episode of his Picket Fences with Chris Carter's <a href="/wiki/The_X-Files" title="The X-Files">The X-Files</a>. Both shows aired Friday nights, but on different networks. The intent was to begin the story on one show, then hope viewers would switch channels to watch the conclusion on another network. CBS balked, and both scripts were rewritten, with The X-Files' <a href="/wiki/Fox_Mulder" title="Fox Mulder">Fox Mulder</a> no longer set to appear on Picket Fences. Yet, both episodes deal with Wisconsin and cows, with Fences referencing an FBI investigation in a neighboring town. CBS blurred the connection further by postponing the Fences episode by one week.<a href="#cite_note-78">[78]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Casting">Casting</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=David_E._Kelley&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Casting">edit</a>]</div> Kelley often uses regular actors from older shows in newer shows. For example, <a href="/wiki/Anthony_Heald" title="Anthony Heald">Anthony Heald</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ren%C3%A9_Auberjonois" title="René Auberjonois">René Auberjonois</a> both played judges on The Practice, and both went on to be regular cast members in later shows (Heald on Boston Public as a vice-principal and Auberjonois on Boston Legal as a partner at a law firm). Both Kathy Baker and Justin Shenkarow (Picket Fences) have been used in Boston Public. Kathy Baker as Meredith "The Hook Lady" Peters and Justin Shenkarow as the student Warren Dickson. In addition many actors who either had the main roles or major roles in Kelley's previous shows would make at least one guest appearance in Boston Legal. After the HBO series <a href="/wiki/Big_Little_Lies_(TV_series)" title="Big Little Lies (TV series)">Big Little Lies</a>, Kelley started a working relationship with <a href="/wiki/Academy_Award" class="mw-redirect" title="Academy Award">Academy Award</a>-winning actress Nicole Kidman.

Law or Ally McBeal . The importance of legal strategy, sometimes at the expense of the truth, rang true. One attorney said, "[I]t's really about the tactics and the mistakes that opposing counsel makes." Judges were represented as complex, less-than-perfect human beings, sometimes with emotional problems. Plots demonstrated how a defendant's personality would impact the adjudication of a case.<a href="#cite_note-Variety050301-2-80">[80]</a> Stuart Levine of <a href="/wiki/Variety_(magazine)" title="Variety (magazine)">Variety</a> magazine said, "[The Practice] isn't afraid to paint the firm's clients as the dregs of society."<a href="#cite_note-Variety050301-4-14">[14]</a> Kelley said, <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote">One of the most fundamental questions people have about defense attorneys is, 'How can you do that?

He liked the realism of the setting, the mixed ethnicity of the faculty and (oftentimes antipathetic) student body and the bureaucratic struggles.
