Q: I vaguely remember a show on A&E, quite a while ago, that took place at a courthouse in New York. It was a big deal at the time because it was produced by a big director, but I don't remember much else. What was it? Can it be found on DVD?
That was "100 Centre Street," and it was actually a big deal for a few reasons.
