LA Law season 8 DVD set,
LA Law The Complete Collection,
both released in 2016
Shelley guest-starred in the TV series LA Law during its 8th and final season in 1994. It was an American legal drama series that was set in and around a fictional Los Angeles-based law firm. It had an ensemble cast and featured parallel storylines, social drama - and had a touch humor as well. It was a reflection of the ideologies of the era and tackled both the controversial as well as the sensitive issues of the time. Harry Hamlin, Susan Dey, Corbin Bernsen, Jimmy Smits and Blair Underwood were the breakout stars from the cast. The series has been released on DVD since.

"Whose San Andreas Fault Is It, Anyway?" 1994
Shelley appeared in the season 8 episode "Whose San Andreas Fault Is It, Anyway?" playing Lynn Barnett, an ad executive being sued for sexual harassment and wrongful termination by a copywriter with whom she had an affair. Eli Levinson (played by Alan Rosenberg) represented Lynn in court. The episode brought an interesting twist to the now common sexual harassments case, because, in the episode, it was a woman who was accused instead of a man - a rarity for the era. The outcome of the case was an interesting twist as well. It's a great episode and Shelley shined in her role. And Shelley was chic as ever. Her corporate suits and matching accessories were very up to the minute. If you can get it, watch it!
