Street Legal: First Look at the Revival of the CBC Drama
|
CBC released a first look at the upcoming revival of Street Legal, premiering Monday, March, 4 at 9 p.m. ET on CBC and CBC Gem. This original series will pick up 25 years after the original, as Olivia Novak (Cynthia Dale), now a partner at a major Bay Street law firm, is beaten to the punch on filing a massive class-action lawsuit by an upstart firm of young social-activist lawyers. Olivia pursues the firm as an acquisition target, but when her own firm goes down in a flame of egos and departing partners, she finds herself starting over at the boutique firm with new younger colleagues. The first look sneak peek can be seen below.

A CBC original series, Street Legal is co-produced by IGP and Broken Clown Productions. Bernie Zukerman (Remedy, King) is Executive Producer. Bruce Smith (19-2) is Executive Producer and Showrunner. Cynthia Dale and Rayne Zukerman are Producers. For CBC, Sally Catto is General Manager, Programming; Helen Asimakis is Senior Director, Drama, Scripted Content; and Deborah Nathan is Executive in Charge of Production.

I am really excited for this. I have vague memories of Street Legal when my mom watched it back in the day and I’ve caught the odd rerun over the years. I am glad they made this a sequel series with some returning characters rather than just an annoying reboot.
