Murphy Brown fans, prepare to piddle yourselves silly. Boston Legal is reuniting Candice Bergen with her onetime MB squeeze, Scott Bakula.

Sources confirm that Legal creator David E. Kelley has tapped Bakula to guest-star in an upcoming episode as an old beau of Bergen's Shirley Schmidt who she meets up with at a bar.

No word on the exact number of episodes Bakula will appear in, or whether he'll run into fellow Starfleet captain William Shatner during his stay, thereby making the Star Trek universe implode.
