Phongam plays off Jittri’s steam-rolling ambition to electrifying results in a rather addictive Thai thriller series that throws a lot of story at ya.

The Evil Lawyer is a bit overdramatic, but it sets up an intriguing scenario where Jittri and Mek defend more impossible clients while Mek faces his own fate in court.

This eight-episode series may be tonally erratic and at times faintly ridiculous, but it also has confronting questions about power, corruption and systemic injustice plus a gripping, twisty plot.
