As Judge Clark Brown, Gibson remained a constant presence at Boston Legal, even as the lead actors left their roles. He appeared in 24 episodes of the series and remained until the end of the series in 2008. Sadly, this was one of his last roles and he passed away in 2009, a week before his 74th birthday. Garrett Wells was introduced in the premiere of the second season as a cheeky young lawyer who is obviously attracted to Denise. He goes over her head with some clients, but helps her by blackmailing her ex-husband`s lawyer/pastor to get her to abstain from her requests for money. He is not as effective in the courtroom and has been humiliated more than once by sober judges. He is also intimidated by Catherine Piper, Alan Shore`s caterer and former assistant, who actually drives him out of his own office. We will not see him again after the end of season 2. It is not clear if he is still with the company or if he was fired by the partners without any explanation. During the second season, he begins a relationship with a paralegal and initially shames the company for his misaligned sexual encounters.

The second season began with three new lead actors – Julie Bowen, Justin Mentell and Ryan Michelle Bathe – after releasing three – Rhona Mitra, Monica Potter and Lake Bell – from the first season [although two were in the first episodes of the second season, although they were filmed during the first season]. The only constant is that casting directors were busy earning their salaries. After the line-up changes, the opening sequence of the 2006-2007 season was also revised. Below are the credits released on September 26, 2006 for the third season.
