How Do You Justify Dead Lawyers?

According to Deadline: The executive producer/developer of FX’s Justified, Graham Yost, will team up with another producer from that cool show, Fred Golan, to resuscitate an old concept that died as a pilot for Syfy 8 years ago.

Conceived as a “legal procedural with a twist, the reincarnated series will now include John Stamos as “a hotshot defense attorney [who] is run over by a bus and finds himself in his own version of hell: a law firm on earth composed of other dead lawyers, all trying to right miscarriages of justice in order to redeem themselves…”

To mangle a hoary joke, the newest good lawyer show might be a Dead Lawyers show.
