Why?

The idea was good enough but why the stupid music throughout? I didn't know if I was watching a western comedy or what. Then, the one liners and corny jokes were over the top. Why can't we just have a good PG movie that isn't cheesy??

Wholesome

While it was slow in some spots, it was wholesome. A feel-good type show where you can guess most of the plot points, but it's still entertaining.

Make this a weekly show!

Loved this movie. It's true this appeared to be pilot for a weekly show. We want to see more of these same characters. This laid out the premise for a good old boy lawyer going after he bad guys. Need to keep his sidekick PI and his bad ass wife, too! Please make more of these! And it was PG so the whole family could see it.

Neverending music

It's not really that bad of a movie except for the music that plays in the background 98% of the time.

Trivia
Casey McKay meets Solomon 'Ex' Clemons while Ex is working on a County Line pinball machine. County Line (2017) came out the year before Legal Action (2018) and Brent Christy, the director of Legal Action, was the director of photography for County Line and the director for the two sequels County Line: All In (2022) and County Line: No Fear (2022).

Goofs
When Judge Thorne orders that testimony be stricken from the record, the court reporter is shown with a pen crossing out the testimony on her paper. This is not an accurate depiction of how a record is stricken. Stricken testimony remains in the record but it can't be referenced for evidence or legal arguments.
