Bingum or Bingham???

The article uses both of these spellings for the name of Jane. It is one or the other, but not both. Which is it?

P.S. I did a bit of research and learned that Lifetime uses "Bingum" for the name of the character. (Not in the least surprising: TV tends to use uncharacteristic spellings for what are otherwise common names, presumably to avoid potential lawsuits.)Daqu (talk) 03:44, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

On her business card in the Pilot, it is spelled "B-I-N-G-U-M". - Jasonbres (talk) 16:57, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Jasonbres is correct about the spelling of Bingum in the pilot episode. BTW, I'm astonished by how smart and funny this show is!! From the previews and title, I'd formed an impression of another vapid sitcom glorifying physical beauty and using a fat character as the punchline. Wrong on all counts. Can't be a coincidence that one of the directors is Frank Capra III. This show has vitality and power reminiscent of his grandfather's remarkable opus, "It's A Wonderful Life." Check it out!

I corrected the spelling in the article as, although someone made it consistent, she was still listed as "Bingham." BTW, in addition to it being visible in the episodes, I also confirmed the spelling on the Lifetime Website and IMDB. --Blondtraillite (talk) 16:25, 6 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Season 3?

Any word on a season 3 pickup? Bizzybody (talk) 20:14, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Painfully bad legal errors

My spouse and I are lawyers and although we enjoy the show's characters and actors, we spend much of the time cringing at the glaring legal errors in almost every episode. This is wholly apart from the ethical issues (none of those people would still be practicing law after their antics) and the blazing speed with which cases seem to proceed in that fantasy Los Angeles courthouse. Those are intentional, I think, and probably driven by the plot. But the avoidable and unintentional errors--don't they have a lawyer technical advisor? Yesterday, Kim says that the AUSA dismissed the charges in the shoplifting/conspiracy to encourage shoplifting case against the pastor. The AUSA is the federal prosecutor. The case would have been handled by the local (state) prosecutor--county or city. Really, there are a lot of unemployed lawyers who could help with this easy stuff!

House articles include some medical analysis. If you can find a good source that reviews the legal aspects of the episodes then you could include some of the points in the article. -- 93.107.84.38 (talk) 14:58, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

South Korean remake?
