All Rise CBS Show Plot
All Rise TV Show follows a new judge in the court room who is ready to shake things up and fix all that is wrong.
The new series is a courthouse drama that follows the chaotic, hopeful and sometimes absurd lives of its judges, prosecutors and public defenders, as they work with bailiffs, clerks and cops to get justice for the people of Los Angeles amidst a flawed legal process.
Among them is newly appointed Judge Lola Carmichael, a highly regarded and impressive deputy district attorney who doesn’t intend to sit back on the bench in her new role, but instead leans in, immediately pushing the boundaries and challenging the expectations of what a judge can be.
Those offering Lola counsel are her roguish best friend and colleague, Mark Callan, a successful deputy district attorney who now must adjust to the shifting boundaries in their personal and professional relationship; Supervisory Judge Lisa Benner, an influential, powerful figure tasked with overseeing Lola’s transition into her new job; and Lola’s efficient, pragmatic judicial assistant, Sherri Kansky, who isn’t thrilled at the prospect of “training” a rookie judge.
Also working in the courthouse are Emily Lopez, an empathetic and blunt public defender filled with fire and conviction; Luke Watkins, a court bailiff by day, law student by night; and Sara Castillo, a court reporter and reliable source of intel and advice.

All Rise Series Review
All Rise TV show brings a fast-paced legal drama with interesting characters and performances that will keep you interested on the on screen proceedings. A judge who is determined to be truthful to her job and not get along with the usual way of things is set up for a big show down with the system and those entrenched in just letting things happen the way they are. Although we don’t get a lot of backstory on the main character, the DA’s background from a mafia family promises interesting. A romantic B story between judge Lola and the DA along with the bailiff and a prosecutor give a nice breather. A lot of drama, interesting cases and investigation angle, along with a bit of humor makes this series a fun one-hour this fall.
