The Associates (Canadian TV series)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Associates was a Canadian television drama series, which aired on CTV Television Network in 2001 and 2002.

The show was about five junior associate lawyers at a Toronto law firm. The associates were played by Demore Barnes, Shaun Benson, Tamara Hickey, Gabriel Hogan and Jennie Raymond. R.H. Thomson also starred as the firm's senior partner.

The show was not successful in the ratings and was cancelled at the end of its second season. It should not be confused with The Associates, an American TV sitcom which aired in 1979 starring Martin Short which also featured a small group of young lawyers, this time working with a Wall Street law firm. That show shared a similar fate in lasting only 9 episodes itself.
