The Good Wife season 5
Feb. 14th, 2014 05:28 pmAway this weekend, but before I go, just wanted to say how much I'm enjoying The Good Wife season 5. Just watched ep 3 and...
...am thrilled by all the changes going on. Diane kicked out of her own law firm, Alicia and Cary about to make a break. Peter trying (and failing) to avoid trouble with the glamorous ethics committee lady. Zac and Grace so grown up. The nerds at the NSA. Another appearance from a The Wire alumnus.
Great stuff (as long as they avoid any more caricature evil Brits).

Then again, I just loved Diane standing her ground in this ep. It's awful how quickly things have gone bad between her and Will, when they've stood by each other up to now. Very believable, though.
Well, I suppose it's more that heretofore, Diane has stood by Will.
