Actually, Josh was in two different Ally McBeal episodes.

I could identify the two episodes for you and show you where you could
purchase  DVDs (they're rather expensive, though, because you may have
to buy whole seasons in order to get the episodes that you want). If
you're interested, let me know.

I have only seen a small clip of the episode in question, so please
bear with me.  It is the one in which he is in front of a church
congregation and (singing for the first time?)  At the end you see
Ally emotionally reacting:  crying.

Hello.

Your episode is:

Season 5- Episode 97 - "Nine One One"
"...Josh Groban (as Malcolm Wyatt)...
Ally helps a minister who was fired from his church for not believing
in God. Ever since his wife was brutally murdered, he has been
questioning his beliefs and he asks Ally to talk to his son. Ally is
surprised to see Malcolm again and encourages him to sing at his
father's service after he is hired back."

Ally McBeal Season 5 (including Episode 97 - "Nine One One" featuring
Josh) is available on DVD via eBay:

Josh Groban was also in Season 4-Episode 90 - "The Wedding," but it
involved him singing at a high school prom rather than church. See the

I went to the ebay website for purchase of the DVD.  They are encoded
for DVD players only in Eurgope and Asia.  Very few US players will
play this format.  Are there any other sources other than these
foreign country DVD's I might be able to purchase?  I would like to
find a source where I can buy a DVD I can play.

Well, just look for DVDs that say "NTSC."  Here's a set:

Ally McBeal Season 5 NTSC Region 1 DVD set
"The set is in NTSC REGION 1 so it WILL play in the United States and Canada"
