This article presents information on several television programs. It is informed that a television program titled Feds flirts with questioning the ways of criminal justice, only to use the exercise as an opportunity to justify the system's imperatives. It is also informed that another television program titled "The Practice" follows the travails of a small Boston law firm that represents the unrepresentable. Heavily hyped by the network, it's the latest effort by David Kelley, the creator of "Chicago." It's hard to imagine that the new series won't soon dive further into the topical swim that distinguished those earlier shows with considerations of everything from fetal-tissue cures to school busing.
