"Philly" aired for one season only (2001 - 2002) before being canceled by ABC.   Steven Bochco brought Jamie on board at mid-season to aid the struggling series by playing  Judge Augustus "Jack" Ripley - a love interest for the lead character, Kathleen Macguire.  Jamie did a terrific job and after his character was added as a regular cast member, the ratings began to climb - but ABC ceased to promote "Philly," pre-empted it, pulled it entirely during a vital sweeps week and, in the end, didn't even air its season finale until after the show had been canceled.

NOTE:  Until ABC puts the series out on video or DVD, I'll be happy to make my copies of Jamie's "Philly" episodes available to anyone who would like to see him in one I think is one of his best roles.   E-Mail me for more information.
