Civil Wars (TV series)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Civil Wars was a legal drama that aired on ABC from November 1991 to March 1993. The series focused on the lives and cases of New York City divorce attorneys. It had a famously misanthropic opening credits sequence, in which romantic photo albums were shown as the voice track played couples ripping into each other.

The series was produced by Steven Bochco, known for his work on NYPD Blue, L.A. Law, and Hill Street Blues.
