Bull is an American comedy-drama television series starring former NCIS star Michael Weatherly. CBS ordered the program to series on May 13, 2016, and it premiered on September 20, 2016. The show is based on the early days of talk show host Phil McGraw when he was a trial consultant.
On October 17, 2016, CBS picked up the series for a full 22 episode season.
The series follows the employees at Trial Analysis Corporation (TAC), a jury consulting firm headed by Dr. Jason Bull who is a psychologist and "trial science" expert. Bull uses his skills and those of his team to not only select the right jurors for his clients, but to help his clients' lawyers decide which type of argument will win over jurors best.
Bull has received negative reviews from critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, the first episode received a score of 24% with an average rating of 4 out of 10, based on 21 reviews. The website's consensus reads, "Michael Weatherly's performance is top-notch, but not enough to save a show that relies too heavily on a well-worn series of legal show tropes and an off-putting premise." On Metacritic, the series holds a 40 out of 100, based on reviews from 19 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews."
