Is Shark set in New York or Los Angeles?
The series is set around Los Angeles, not a New York law firm, and Stark works for the Los Angeles District Attorney's office. CBS premiered the legal drama in 2006, with Jeri Ryan as DA Jessica Devlin.
Why does Sebastian Stark become a prosecutor?
He is shaken when a client he successfully defended goes on to kill the client's wife, so he leaves defense work for the Los Angeles DA. That backstory explains why the series treats Stark as both a ruthless lawyer and a morally conflicted mentor.
How many seasons and episodes does Shark have?
Shark ran for two seasons and 38 episodes on CBS from 2006 to 2008. It was canceled before a third season, leaving the legal drama without a longer continuation.
