What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the CBS television network, Bull stars Michael Weatherly, Freddy Rodriguez, Geneva Carr, Jamie Lee Kirchner, Christopher Jackson, and MacKenzie Meehan. The show is based on the early career of Dr. Phil McGraw, the founder of one of the most prolific trial-consulting firms of all time. Dr. Jason Bull (Weatherly) is brilliant, brash, and charming. Together with his team of experts at Trial Analysis Corporation, Bull combines psychology, human intuition, and high-tech data to learn what makes those in a courtroom tick. The team includes quick-witted lawyer Benny Colón (Rodriguez), neurolinguistics expert Marissa Morgan (Carr), former NYPD detective Danny James (Kirchner), hacker Taylor Rentzel (Meehan), and image expert Chunk Palmer (Jackson). In high-stakes trials, Bull’s remarkable insights, three Ph.D.’s, and top-notch staff create winning strategies that tip the scales of justice in his clients’ favor.

What do you think? Are you glad that the Bull TV show has been renewed for a fifth season? How would you feel if CBS had cancelled this TV series, instead?”
I love everything about this show and especially the psychological aspects. I think more people would view this show if the writers returned to injecting more of the psychology, as it did in its first 2 seasons.
Because what we have now is a legal show with a little bit of psychology thrown in. Versus what we had in the beginning which was about 35% psychological and 65% legal, which is what set it apart from all of the other legal shows on TV. And why it was so well-received, imo.
B ull is my favorite TV show. However, since it is on at 10:00 I seldom see the end of it.
