Ally McBeal - Season 4
In the fourth season, Richard feels that Mark must know the absent truth but Cindy tries to banish him and convince him that he will know at the right time. At that point, Ally organizes a club supermodel night to attract men, while Brian walks to the bar and gets to see a new ally blocking things. In these moments, 'John' and 'Neil' deal with a case involving the prosecution of a woman for sexual harassment of a man.

The Fox series Ally McBeal, after an offputting, oddball last season, is back in the romantic comedy groove, helped in no small part by the temporary addition of rehabbing actor Robert Downey Jr. to an already great cast.

Downey's "Ally" portrayal of lawyer Larry Paul is one of the high points of current television. He takes the romantic byplay David E. Kelly has written for Larry and Calista Flockhart's Ally and runs with it.

Downey is a real actor who is selling the character rather than playing for a sitcom punch line. His presence gives the hour a dramatic ballast it desperately lacked.

Mr. Downey's astonishing work on ''Ally McBeal'' may be as good as anything anyone has done on a television series

Creator David E. Kelley's slapstick musical paean to the modern working woman reached a pinnacle of excellence in its fourth season... a study in how to push your series' lead to her breaking point without ringing a single false note.

Fortunately, the arrival of Downey to play Flockhart's new guy provides an instant change of course that's much easier to accept... Downey brings, dare one say, sanity and stability to a series that has been revelling in inane nuttiness.

Oh, it's still over-the-top and tacky... But "Ally" is offbeat and loony again instead of just plain stupid and tawdry. And Downey deserves a great deal of credit for the show's revival.

That's what's so confounding about Robert Downey Jr. This guy seems like the world's biggest screw-up, and yet he's been turning in some of the most winning performances seen on TV all season.
