There are no words to describe this drama
Amazing. After watching the Korean dramas: Lawless Lawyer and Legal High (I didn't like them), this show came to me. (Thanks God)Wacko at Law is a good (really good) mystery, comedy, light, suspense and romantic drama. With good actors and twist plots. The plot is about the life of a lawyer (Mai Da Ci) who retires from work after an important event in his life, but years later a law student and future lawyer (Yu Xin) looks for him to help her solve a case. Of course, in the process there are mysteries, cases that connect to the main plot, laughs, love, and much more.
George Hu is like a diamond in this drama, everything about him can act: since his gestures to his voice.
This drama at the beginning looks like the cases they solved as lawyers were an anthology, but then you realize that every case in every episode is connected to the main plot.
The deep in every character is phenomenal. Personally, I loved the character of Esther Yeh (I know this is an unpopular opinion) but, I could feel her chemistry with George. In addition, her light and sometimes childlike personality brings balance to the serious and super gifted character of George Hu. Even though this drama doesn't put the romance in first place, it is really interesting, and sweet.
Also the OST is fascinating, now Elephant Memory is one of my favorite songs.
The best 15 episodes of my entire life.
P.S: It has a happy ending
Give it a try, you won't regret it!

Good acting by all!
Should you? Would you? Could you?You should watch this one (YES! )
You would recommend this to others. (YES!)
You could watch this again. (Not Really)
Ending: Happy
If you can get through the first 2 episodes then you will be hooked on this drama. The performances individually of each character are brilliant and that's the strength of this drama.
I absolutely couldn't see any chemistry between the lead pair but their interactions are fun to watch. If you can keep the romance aside and watch this as a mystery/thriller drama, then you will love it. In fact, the chemistry between the second lead pair is much more than the main lead but as I mentioned, don't watch this as a romantic one.
The story starts out as typical episodic case gone wrong types but then it all intertwines into one big mystery which is connected to a bigger plot. You do get hooked to it slowly as the mystery unravels.
The supporting cast is excellent. Chen wen shan, Suun Lin, Ada Pan (mother and excellent that too) and the character of Mo Di Ping enacted by Vince Kao has to be mentioned. But of course the most impressive of all is the role of the male lead superbly enacted by George Hu.
It's a fast-paced one so there is no chance for it to drag.
Watch it and enjoy it!

Good at First Episodes, getting downhill after 6 episodes.
I am getting recommendation to watch this, after I watched Legal High. I expect a thriller and suspense drama.The first cases are quite good. We can feel the suspense.
George Hu acting as a lawyer is quite good.
Music is also good.
But,
1. The later cases, the conflict resolution is too absurd for me. The way the lawyer solving the cases is too good to be true. It will never happen in real life.
2. After episodes 6 to the end, I feel I lost the suspense and feel do not like to watch this drama anymore.
3. Romance part is just not believable. I just wish the romance part is deleted from the series. It is just too annoying. I feel the director just force the romance to be added into the series, but I think it failed. I don't feel any chemistry between those persons.
4. Too many unnecessary talks not related to lawyer. Sometimes, they talk about food. Sometimes, medicines. Sometimes, love. I watched 1 hour episode, but about the case it just tell me about 10 minutes. For me, it is too boring.

Hmmm
the beginning of some episodes is quite interesting and addicting, but after getting into the main problem solving, it seems a bit absurd
Absurd and exaggerated scene
Only scratches, and the injured person is conscious, the sleeves are very loose, but he cut her shirt ,,, makes me laugh
The beginning episode story is still acceptable, but when discussing the main problem of the story, the mystery of the murder of 3 people, sounds very absurd, they say it themselves, conclude by themselves, investigate by themselves, solve it from their words ,, and when the problem was discussed before it was not explained and not tell all the basic result of the 18 years ago case,,, but it was added when investigating, said his father was meeting Mr Mo, but not sure the purpose,, then waited in the blablabla room, then suddenly came out a map of lawyer tian,and madam mo said she see who.... And at that moment she was hang out with blablabla and hekdgduskvdushshv ABSURD! and suddenly all the people they solve their cases before are hooked up and the mastermind is even more absurd!
