ABC's Boston Legal takes on credit card industry
Did you catch Boston Legal last night? The show featured a lengthy criticism of the credit card industry that was fascinating. One of the show's writers must have had a very bad experience with their credit card company. According to the show's summary:
Alan Shore tries to bail out his secretary, Melissa, who is in serious credit card debt, and seeks the assistance of the firm's quirky but brilliant bank and finance genius, "Hands" Espenson.
From skyrocketing rates to the universal default clause, this episode took on everything that consumers dislike about the credit card industry. Pretty gutsy stuff. It's already generating a lot of feedback on the show's message boards too. It looks like a transcript of the show will be posted online here in a few weeks. I'll be sure to link to it from CreditBloggers.com when it becomes available.
