Billy McBride – einst ein erfolgreicher Anwalt – verbringt heute mehr Zeit an der Theke als bei Gericht. Dennoch lässt er sich widerwillig auf einen Fall ein und ermittelt fortan gegen den größten Mandanten der Kanzlei, die er einst mitbegründet hat. Billy und sein Team decken eine tödliche Verschwörung auf, und kämpfen daraufhin in einem Prozess um Leben und Tod gegen den ultimativen Goliath.

Was totally surprised that I loved it. Washed out lawyer coming back, evil defense conglomerate, divorced couple with a kid in-between... Been there, done that, right? Watch it. Loved the story, the acting, everything! Rarely a 10 second stretch that is boring. And the story is getting bigger and bigger with plausible add-ons.
Kind of superficial for an 8 hour crime drama -- the writers should watch some good Nordic Noir series and try again. The courtroom scenes were unrealistic and the series has a disappointing ending. Acting wasn't so great, but could've been compensated for with a better story.
**Better Call Billy** Goliath starts interesting but needs a firm cutting. There is too much unnecessary fluff. I love Billy Bob Thornton though. He really holds this series together, the other actors are fine but not more.
Watched season one and two -both very good - highly recommend. 9/10
I just stumbled upon this show today. Billy Bob seems to be setting up the title character for something good. I’m also getting a strong Californication style vibe from this show, which is great. It’s about time we got a show with an adorable and talented loser archetype leading it. If you’re fed up with all the Netflix style cultural Marxist nonsense, this is be a good show to add to your watch list as an alternative. I know I will be.
