help Murder One FAQ

Why did Murder One season 1 follow one case for so many episodes?

Steven Bochco designed Murder One around a serialized murder trial instead of a new case every week. The first season follows defense attorney Ted Hoffman, played by Daniel Benzali, through the Jessica Costello case across ABC's 1995 to 1996 season.

Who replaced Daniel Benzali on Murder One in season 2?

Anthony LaPaglia joined season 2 as attorney Jimmy Wyler after Daniel Benzali's Ted Hoffman left the center of the show. That change was part of ABC's attempt to make the legal drama easier for viewers to enter midseason.

Is Murder One connected to Steven Bochco's other legal or police shows?

It is not a direct spinoff, but it shares Bochco's interest in serialized workplace drama with shows like Hill Street Blues, L.A. Law, and NYPD Blue. Murder One was created by Steven Bochco, Charles H. Eglee, and Channing Gibson.

How many seasons of Murder One aired on ABC?

Murder One aired for two seasons on ABC, from 1995 to 1997. Its serialized format was unusual for network drama at the time, years before that structure became common on prestige TV.
