shapinglightOkay, so when you're not feeling well you're supposed to comfort yourself with undemanding telly, aren't you? Well, The Wire can't really be called undemanding, so I've been watching The Good Wife too, 2 episodes of season 1 so far, and even though it's definitely undemanding, I have learnt a few things from it.
Spoilers within for the first two eps of The Good Wife.
1) American culture is very, very macho. It makes us Brits look like a bunch of big girlies skipping through the daisies. Even their hypocrisy is more manly than ours.
2) Liberal judges in the US are obviously rubbish, even if they are sunlighting from their night job as vampire king of Mississippi.
3) The sainted Alicia is really annoying. I can sort of understand her husband's behaviour.
4) Archie Panjabi is awesome. I'm pretending to myself that her character's name is Kulwinder instead of Kalindra, or whatever the hell it's supposed to be. Never heard of that name. She looks like a Kulwinder to me.
