The Good Fight

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.

Exceptional cast and great story-line opportunities. Unfortunately actors can only do so much when working with an ideologically captured writing team. I can understand incorporating current events and climates, but to have absolutely everything be focused on race or politics (especially blatantly one-sided politics) gets old really fast, and that comes from someone with no political leanings. Most people don't watch television or films to have a narrative constantly shoved down their throats, it's to escape the ills of the world and focus on something else entirely. Otherwise we'd exclusively watch documentaries. The incorporation of silly cartoons meant to do nothing other than push one specific narrative was also lazy and tiring. There was such a good opportunity here to create another great show like "The Good Wife", yet it fell drastically short of even palatable entertainment. In the words of Morgan Freeman: "Stop talking about it. I'm going to stop calling you a white man, and I'm going to ask you to stop calling me a black man." Can't we just return to great entertainment with creative story-lines?

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

I liked The Good Wife, but at time The Good Wife could be predictable. The Good Fight however is a lot edgier and I must give it Two Thumbs Up for integrating the Black Community with the corporate World. Christine Baranski is at her best and I have always been a fan of Delroy Lindo. It is also wonderful to see supporting staff from The Good Wife on The Good Fight. The Good Fight is well written and well acted.
