Victor Garber lands new ABC series Eli Stone
Sunday, May 27th, 2007 on SpoilerBuzz.comWe have yet another lawyer series in the fall schedule this coming year! But since Victor Garber is in it, I’ll let the fact it is a lawyer-based series slide 
Many lawyers consider themselves prophets, but Eli Stone may be the real deal. Eli has built a successful career at a top law firm in San Francisco representing only the biggest and richest corporations that make a habit of screwing over the little guy. But after experiencing a series of odd hallucinations, Eli seeks to find a deeper meaning to life while trying not to lose his job and destroy his relationship with the bosses’ daughter. When Eli discovers an aneurysm in his brain, he wonders if his condition is truly medical or if perhaps he now has a higher calling.
