for Top Eli Stone Sites! Following on the success of their current
hit Brothers and Sisters, Ken Olin (Alias), Marc Guggenheim and Greg Berlanti
(Everwood) create a unique, character-driven drama that explores the very different
worlds of law and spirituality in a humorous and heartfelt way. Combining the
fantasy and spirituality from The Ghost Whisperer, sincerity and passion from
The Practice and quirky humor from Monk, the show explores whether we can change
the course of our lives in midstream. Today, the worst thing happened to
mercenary attorney Eli Stone. A case made him care. As if that's not hard enough
for a soulless shark, Eli's also hallucinating -- larger-than-life visions of
pop stars and his dead relatives. Could it be that Eli's not cut out to be a cutthroat
lawyer but actually has a higher calling? Well, if the universe can bring his
college girlfriend back to him, then maybe he needs to risk everything he's worked
for, including gunning for partner and his relationship with the boss' daughter,
to take on his own law firm. Eli's as surprised as anyone that it works and that
it feels so good. Now, instead of defending evil mega-corporations, he's
fighting for the little guy in his law firm's new pro-bono department. As for
those visions, his doctor thinks it might be an aneurysm, just like the one that
tortured his father. But Eli sees a greater possibility, a destiny to become a
spiritual prophet. He might not have been anyone's first choice but, given his
looks, charm and intelligence, it's an excellent one. Eli Stone stars Jonny
Lee Miller (Smith, Trainspotting), Natasha Henstridge (Commander-in-Chief), Loretta
Devine (Grey's Anatomy, Waiting To Exhale) and six-time Emmy® nominee Victor
Garber (Alias, Legally Blonde). Over the years, the legal trade has earned billions
but with Eli Stone, it has finally made a prophet. - from ABC.com |
