In the June issue of the ABA Journal, Stephanie Ward gives us a little behind-the-scenes insight into the real characters behind our favorite legal TV dramas.

This made us wonder a couple of things. First, what's the best legal show on TV right now? Vote here to let us know.

Second, we'd like to know: What's the best legal TV show of all time?

Answer in the comments section below.

Read last week's question and answers about the ultimate law school graduation speaker.

Our favorite answer from last week:

Posted by "G": "For pure entertainment value and perhaps an incisive insight, I’d go for Stephen Colbert, Seth MacFarlane, Judge Alex Kozinski, or Sean Carter (either the lawyer humorist or the rapper, or both). For pure inspirational value, I’d go for Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry. Jerry Springer’s speech wasn’t bad either."

What's the most realistic lawyer-themed show on TV these days?
