The television show Ally McBeal ran from 1997 to 2002, a strong five season run. Ratings began to drop by the third season, but jumped back up in the fourth when Robert Downey, Jr. joined the cast as Ally's boyfriend.
Quite a bit of the show revolved around the music, provided by Vonda Shepard. Shepard played the singer in the bar on the first floor of the same building of Ally's law firm. Ally often had an inner soundtrack running that the audience was privy to.
Several gags for the show came from the music cues, as well. One of the firm's partners, John Cage, had to listen to Barry White in order to get in the mood. The famous dancing baby danced to "Hooked on Feeling".
Only two seasons have been released individually, with the third set to drop on July 13, 2010.
The entire series has been released in a box set.
Five albums were released for Ally McBeal.
