This is kind of genius.  The producers of Boston Legal have decided to promote their switch to a new time slot within an episode. The show is moving from 10pm on Tuesdays to 10pm on Wednesdays.  So, at the end of the final episode before the switch they show a scene in a meeting where Denny Crane is surprised to learn that the weekly firm meeting is being changed from…10pm on Tuesdays to 10pm on Wednesdays.  I love it

The network will let people know we’re moving, but we couldn’t help but also deal with it the way Boston Legal deals with things — by turning it into a little scene,” says Legal exec producer Bill D’Elia. “It’s irreverent, fun, and inside baseball… We stay in character and treat it like, ‘If you get it, you get it, and if you don’t, you don’t.’”
