La batalla ejemplar

Love the show, but I hate the cartoon shorts. It totally interrupts the flow of the show. Otherwise great actors, great show.

It's sad to see one of your favourite shows die. This has gone from being one of the best shows on TV to being a shadow of its former self. It used to be beautifully written and was biting in its criticism of U. S politics. The clever introduction of occasional cartoon style songs was a feature.

It has lost some wonderful cast members, Rose Leslie and Cush Jumbo amongst them.

The show managed to maintain a very high standard through to the end of season 4. Season 5 is appalling. The entire story line is amateurish, unfunny and tedious. I feel for the cast having to work with the scripts they've been given.

I don't know whether they've changed the writers or they decided they'd hand Season 5 over to a computer so it could be written by AI. I've kept watching through loyalty to the show in the desperate hope things would get better but as the great Peter Finch once said, "I'm as Mad as hell and I'm not going to take it any more.". I lasted to episode 8, season 5. I really can't take any more.

Maybe they'll have a series 6 Dallas style where season 5 has all been a dream. Should I say nightmare.

Seasons 1-4 deserve a 9/10. Season 5 I'd give a 1/10.

It's a tragedy when a great show dies.

I'm not an US citizen.

Season 1 is good but from time to time already pretty much on the nose with their political views.

the good wife was great because it showed both political sides in the US with smart and subtle writing. it was a little bit left leaning but showed both political views with respect and their pros and cons. the viewer could think and come to his own conclusions.

i stopped watching in the beginning of season 2. the writing is unbearable. it lacks all nuance.

it insults the viewers' intelligence.

Many times I've thought that this one of the best programs on TV. It is has great acting, clever witty dialog and great stories. Like its predecessor, The Good Wife, many of the storylines are enticing food for thought.

The only critique I have is that the show can get overly political. At some point, it stops being compelling story telling and sounds like a rant. It may be a rant I agree with but ... it's just not fun to watch. It feels like I'm re-living yesterday's news instead of breaking new ground.

The writers can be brilliant so I hope they get some a fresh ideas for the next season. Let's get some new unpredictable storylines and interesting cases ... it'll be great for the show.

I loved this series up top season 5.

Definitely needs a change in the writing team...could have done better than copy and paste real life events. Seem like they've run out of ideas after Trump. And those fake courts. What a waste of time.

I like the cast though.
