I think the show's finale or epilogue will outline how this trial launched a mega-billion-dollar industry in law and media fields that only serves to NOT serve justice - just that of making lots of money no matter the cost or damage to society. Starting with Jury Consultation [scientific jury selection to exploit

I just finished watching Vincent Bugliosi's video (based on his book OUTRAGE: The Five Reasons Why OJ Got Away With Murder):
VINCENT BUGLIOSI VS. O.J. SIMPSON ("ABSOLUTELY 100% GUILTY") (1999) (PART 1)

VINCENT BUGLIOSI VS. O.J. SIMPSON (1999) (PART 2) (BUGLIOSI'S "FINAL SUMMATION" TO THE JURY)

Brilliant line. It was the second time "plot twist" was mentioned too. Clark mentioned O. Henry plot twists. O. Henry the author famous for surprise endings, being a fugitive himself at one point, died a broken man - in North Carolina, no less, where much of this episode's story was based.

That is what is so fascinating about good TV like this: it's interpretive, meant to start dialog, and clearly reflects society's/individuals' perspectives which is almost more important that what actually went down. Since we can never know or change it anyway.

Very true. Notice too, Kardashian said, "yes, it was a good day for the defense" (not you/OJ). Meaning, he's disassociating from 'the team,' and that 'the team' has little to do with the truth he knows about his delusional friend.

True, and some here have said just that! Too many allegories to count in 2016… but the question is: have we learned anything??

PV has yet to tap into the show's ever-rippling essence of this socially important event. I'm sure we would've heard about any positive contact Murphy had with AVC.

…then quietly hire him for their own personal PI or security detail.

She said the real deal in the episode when she opened the court doc that added Cochran to the Dream Team. Hilarious.

Love it. And maybe they will.

Gawd… I forgot about that! I'm also laughing at the now retired words "special effects" which usually had a team of 3 creating them.

Re Fuhrman, yes! - for his OWN self-serving, vain purposes. Plus, it would've shown he might have been complicit he had foreknowledge of his lying wife's prior contact with Fuhrman too. He didn't do it for the good of the case, that's for sure. In other important evidentiary matters, he was pro-Defense all the way. He

No kidding! Even then I couldn't believe what I saw. Beside the motion/hearing/trial rulings, Cochran and Ito yukking it up between sessions. He was bending over backwards - and forwards - for the Defense. Dummy.

Yes, those closest to OJ tend to die, and 'Twerpy' gets to live another day.

Yep, we can say Gates-gate embraced, not just covered up too. Proof-positive LA is not all liberal either.

Try to look past the obvious - he was cast for a reason. Look at his - and cast's work, lives and POV via articles and interviews, imdb/wiki, discussing the original event and how it impacted them. It will make more sense. Don't want to ruin it for you.

It's touchy stuff and the reviewer was not alive or too young, so any perspective is second-hand revisionist - and quite shallow, imo (sorry, PV, truly). The series' gifts will continue to give long after, and the reviewer has not begun to scratch the surface of the bigger, deeper, more holistic social narrative Ryan

Great build up, huh!? And when he did his slow-mo strut into the courtroom, along with Marcia's reaction, it felt like a fatal virus sealed the case's fate.

Billy Magnussen plays Kato (in ACS anyway), but damn, I was hoping you would be right 'cause Jonathan grew up just inland of us making the circle much closer to home.

yes, and more explicitly, Gliding Over All.
