TV Guide is reporting that David E. Kelley has cast Scott Bakula to guest-star in an upcoming episode of Boston Legal as an old boyfriend of Candice Bergen’s Shirley Schmidt who she meets up with at a bar. No word on the exact number of episodes Bakula will appear in, or whether he’ll run into fellow Starfleet captain William Shatner during his stay. This isn’t the first time Bergen and Bakula played a couple. They were also coupled on Bergen’s populer Murphey Brown show.
