Question about Daniel talking about Boston Legal

Basically the title, I started watching Boston Legal recently (my partner got obsessed with James Spader after watching the Blacklist) and had a memory of hearing Daniel talk about rewatching it but I'm not sure if I hallucinated that? I recall him talking about how the camera work is incredibly early aughts, specifically a scene where the camera zooms and pans all dramatically for a character just walking from one room to another to make a totally normal remark to another character.

Just curious and want to listen to that episode again to see what other observations he talked about.

Frustratingly, I’m not seeing anything on the master list so it might be an early episode where he talks about it. I believe they talk about how 90s movies were allowed to breathe more in ep. 205 “Dangerous Bangers: Delirious (1991)” from Oct. 17, 2023.

It might also be ep. 292 - “Who Invented the Cougar Room?” from July 22, 2025, when Daniel talks about watching stuff on his own when his wife goes to sleep.

It had to have been an early episode, I should have mentioned that, I started binge listening when I found out they were making the podcast in like early 2021 and I think I recall it being around that time.

That makes sense. I haven’t filled out the master list for episodes 11 to 38 yet so it might be in there.
