"Philly" is a television series created by Steven Bochco that focused on a criminal defense attorney. It lasted a full season (2001-2002) but was then canceled due to low ratings. The final episode was advertised heavily as the series finale, a move not commonly used in network promotion.

Plot

Kathleen Maguire (Kim Delaney) is a single mother and partner in a small law firm with Will Froman (Tom Everett Scott). Kathleen fights to get her clients out of trouble and deals with professional conflicts arising from her relationship with her ex-husband, the Assistant District Attorney. She also starts to date Judge Augustus "Jack" Ripley (James Denton).

Actress Delaney left her role on Bochco's "NYPD Blue" to make this series. She later returned to "NYPD Blue" for a limited number of episodes.
