The Good Fight

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.

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

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.

Up front I will state that I am a big fan of The Good Wife and Julianna Margulies and took a while to get over it ending, very much like when any good TV show ends.

I waited until I had almost all of the episodes of this series before I talked my partner into watching it.

After the first episode I didn't have to talk her into any further episodes, we binge watched the whole season in one weekend.

Wow is the one word I would use to describe this show.

So many good actors and characters who are just make for a really great show IMHO.

Christine Baranski as Diane Lockhart, Cush Jumbo as Lucca Quinn, Rose Leslie as Maia Rindell and Delroy Lindo as Adrian Boseman just a few of the characters I just love and they put in stellar performances.

Add Carrie Preston as the wacky and sublime Elsbeth Tascioni and you have a huge hit in my eyes.

If you haven't seen it yet, get a copy and enjoy.

Fan of 'The Good Wife' and thought this show would be like that one but I was mistaken. I don't ever remember that show having direct attacks and plot focus on when it ran when Obama was President; while this show seems to makes an obnoxious point to include some type of Trump scandal in every episode. No matter your political belief, if a show is going to include attacks against any political person or view, I don't think they should be so focused on that being a main part of the entire plot of the show and to be so hypocritical of always attacking one side of political beliefs. Like I mentioned, it doesn't matter what side of the political party you're on, it just got so old that the people involved with creating the show have some vengeance they're trying to have the show reflect. This also includes bringing up race a lot and likes to make every 'villain' and issue caused by white people.
