Maybe the greatest of all classic C&J shows. Sixteen episodes are currently availible on DVD, with more presumably to be released.

Woops, make that 24 as eight new ones were just relesed (one with William Shatner as a guest star).

In the episode "The Highest of Prizes" (from the third DVD box set), Jean Stapleton plays a member of a murder trial jury on which one man is the lone holdout for acquittal. The man eventually brings Ms. Stapleton's character around to his point of view.
Ms. Stapleton's role in this episode is highly reminiscent (precognizant?) of when she would later become Edith Bunker and one of the more famous episodes of All In The Family centered around Edith being selected for jury duty and being the lone holdout in a murder trial.
