After making Alien and Blade Runner, Ridley Scott will always be associated with science fiction. However, in the late 2000s, Scott served as an executive producer on a landmark legal-political TV drama series that ran for 156 episodes. In addition to winning a slew of awards, the show also spawned a spin-off that lasted nearly as long. Together, the two shows ran for 13 seasons and became so popular that another spin-off premiered in February 2024.
