Why was Freddie Prinze Jr. cast as Denny Cranes underachieving son?
We’re still mad at him for Summer Catch and those Scooby-Doo movies. Kelley: I have to confess that wasn’t my idea. Not that I objected to it because I like his work, but [the other producers] developed that character. They were looking for a young, wide-eyed attorney with an infectious quality who was also, surprisingly, a good lawyer. You’d have to ask them what occasioned them to think of Freddie Prinze Jr., but I’m sure Freddie’s success in feature films was not a deterrent. It’s good casting in the TV world anytime you cast someone from the feature world. That’s good for all of us. Speaking of film stars, might your wife, Michelle Pfeiffer, ever stop by Boston Legal? She’d have great chemistry with Spader. Kelley: She would be great. In fact, she did work with James Spader in a movie called Wolf. I have no doubt the two of them would be great together. The trick would be convincing her to ever work with me. Even though I might be able to persuade her that other people are running
