Plot Synopsis

Executive produced by Dr. Phil McGraw and Steven Spielberg (Seasons 1-3), BULL is a one-hour scripted series inspired by the early career of McGraw, the founder of one of the most prolific trial consulting firms of all time. Brilliant, brash and charming, Dr. Jason Bull is the ultimate puppet master as he combines psychology, human intuition and high tech data to learn what makes jurors, attorneys, witnesses and the accused tick. Bull employs an enviable team of experts at Trial Analysis Corporation to shape successful narratives down to the very last detail. They include his quick-witted former brother-in-law, Benny Colon, a lawyer who acts as defense attorney in the company's mock trials; Marissa Morgan, a cutting-edge neurolinguistics expert from the Department of Homeland Security; former NYPD detective Danny James, the firm's tough but relatable investigator; haughty millennial hacker Cable McCrory, who is responsible for gathering cyber intelligence; and Chunk Palmer, a fashion-conscious stylist and former All-American lineman who fine tunes clients' appearances for trial. In high-stakes trials, Bull's combination of remarkable insight into human nature, three PhDs and a top-notch staff creates winning strategies that tip the scales of justice in his clients' favor.

The sophomore season of BULL premiered on Tuesday, September 26, 2017 at 9pm ET/PT on CBS. In the season opener, "School for Scandal," when Bull joins the district attorney in a case against Kara Clayton (guest star Minka Kelly), who claims she killed her billionaire husband in self-defense, tensions run high when he learns that his on-again, off-again romantic interest, Diana Lindsay (guest star Jill Flint), is defending the widow.
