2 unusual facts about The Young Lawyers


The Whimper of Whipped Dogs

As Ellison was particularly proud of creating the title "The Whimper of Whipped Dogs," but the title was not used onscreen in the Young Lawyers episode, the author decided to use the title again for this short story over three years later.

The first use of the title The Whimper of Whipped Dogs was a teleplay for a 1970 episode of the TV series The Young Lawyers, which was serialized in Ellison's Los Angeles Free Press television critique column at the time, The Glass Teat.
