Boston Legal Shake-up Adds a Dash of Saffron
Saffron Burrows by Jeff Vespa/WireImage.com
Crane, Poole & Schmidt's
semi-extreme makeover continues. Joining John Larroquette and Tara Summers as new additions to the
Boston Legal cast this season are
Circle of Friends'
Saffron Burrows (as a sexy 'n' sophisticated litigator/former lover of James Spader's Alan) and
Hustle & Flow's
Taraji Henson (arriving mid-season as a New York office cohort of Larroquette's).
The
Reporter is also reporting that
Mark Valley and
Rene Auberjonois, half of last month's
surprising cast purge, will return for multiple appearances, while
Gail O'Grady is set to reprise her role of Judge Weldon for several episodes.
