And now fans of the drama will get to enjoy it from the very start later this month.
The entire boxset will be available on Channel 4‘s free streaming service from August 30th.
The show’s original creator David E. Kelley has given his blessing to the new writer, Karin Gist, who was behind US medical drama Grey’s Anatomy.
A source said: “There has been talk of reviving Ally McBeal for years, as the central premise is so desirable to modern audiences.
“It’s the perfect female-driven character drama, really.
“Frankly, it was always ahead of its time, so execs see a reboot as a total no-brainer.
“They are desperate for Calista to jump on board but hope the scripts will convince her to sign up.”
Channel 4's best competition shows
Channel 4 boasts a number impressive competition shows, but which ones are really the best?
Four in a Bed
Reality competition show Four in a Bed has been airing on Channel 4 since 2010. It follows four couples as they take turns to stay at each others B&Bs and hotels, rating their stays along the way. The couple with the establishment voted best value for money are the winners.
Come Dine With Me
Come Dine With Me has been staple British viewing since 2005, providing some outrageous telly moments over the years. Like Four in a Bed, the series moves around to different properties as it follows four contestants as they each host a (supposedly) gourmet dinner party for each other. After each dinner the guests score the host out of 10, will the winner being revealed on the final evening.
The Great British Bake Off
Another national treasure, The Great British Bake Off welcomes a group of 12 amateur bakers to put their culinary skills to the test with Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith judging their efforts. One contestant is eliminated each week until the final three face off in the last week.
Bake Off: The Professionals
Bake Off: The Professionals puts a twist on GBBO, pitting two teams of professional pastry chefs against each other in every episode. It’s up to judges Benoit Blin and Cherish Finden to determine who has what it takes to make it through to the final.
