The Practice's Most Jaw-Dropping Cases Will Make Your Head Spin - Here Are the Wildest Ones

Those who were hooked to David E. Kelley's hit legal drama, The Practice, will remember the show's iconic cases that left viewers on the edge of their seats. From clients who had an unconventional sense of reality to others who were just flat-out crazy, the show had no shortage of strange and wild cases during its illustrious 8-season run. Here are some of the wildest cases that made the show truly unforgettable.

One case that topped the list of mind-blowing cases was of a client who genuinely believed he was Superman. Yes, you read that right - Superman! The client's delusional disorder was at the center of the case, where the lawyers representing him didn't know whether to take him seriously or to have him evaluated for his sanity. This was a case that really pushed the court system to its limits.

Another client, who thought he was Hannibal Lecter from the movie Silence of the Lambs, also sent shockwaves through the courtroom. While Lecter was a brilliant but sinister character in the movie, the client on the show was simply a copycat who wanted to mimic the infamous character's image. Yet again, this was another bizarre incident that left the lawyers scratching their heads.

One other case that stood out for its sheer weirdness was that of a client who claimed to have a rather unusual complex - a monkey complex. The show never revealed what this complex exactly entailed, but one thing was for sure - it left the courtroom perplexed and intrigued. Whether it was real or just a fabrication was never clearly established, but it definitely added a twist to the story.

This eclectic collection of cases was part and parcel of what made The Practice so popular during its prime time. For a show that centered around the everyday activities of a Boston law firm, it had an uncanny knack of dealing with the rather unusual and extraordinary. Perhaps that was what made the show so attractive to audiences - its versatility in balancing reality and fiction.
