Blake B This is the best show every made. The acting is incredible. The story line and character development are top notch. With 20+ episodes a season that are almost a full hour, this is from the golden age of TV. Juliana Margulies and Christine Baranski are dynamite. I LOVE THIS. I watch it once a year and have since I was twelve, which was definitely too young to start watching this but whatever. LOVEEEEEE Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/24/25 Full Review R D I just love this show. Alicia Florrick and her conflicted feelings about her charismatic husband (Chris Noth) while trying to be her own person with her own career while still trying to hold on to her husband and family is really great content. Such a wonderful character and the entire show in the writing is excellent Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/25 Full Review Jacquelyn J Just an awsome series it's brilliant and well worth a watch Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Ginger F The reason why I came back to appointment viewing television. I let the title push me away for sometime. I said to self, “let me guess, in the spirit of reality housewives gone mad, we’re gonna get more of the same ol crazy?” (Referring to the Real Housewives franchise) Much to my chagrin, I jumped to curmudgeon conclusions before realizing: this show is FANTASTIC. Part comeuppance story, part ensemble legal shenanigans, nothing pleased me more than watching 7 seasons of this enthralling drama. What must have started out as a stellar showcase for producer Julianna Margulies, turned into an Emmy first for British actress Archie Panjabi as the law firm internal investigator and a nonstop exhibition of theatrical chutzpah by Christine Baranski and Alan Cumming. They aren’t the only show stoppers nor talent with former Broadway and West End resumes. Shows like THE GOOD WIFE brought me back into the fold of American television while friends were telling me to jump on board BREAKING BAD and THE WIRE. Those shows, while I heard are amazing, never enticed me. Stumbling upon TGW when I was sick and needed something to take my mind off my health proved to be an accident waiting to happen. Then I continued with the streaming spin off THE GOOD FIGHT which was another, fabulous continuation to keep my senses glued to the Tube. Testament to the creative writing, directing and producing duo, Robert and Michelle King! If you love smart women, edgy commentary, and legal dramas that dance in the grey zones, or if you love British intellectual dialogue and wonder if there’s an American counterpart - TGW hit the spot. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/19/23 Full Review Audience Member It is about Alicia Corn Flakes. She is a laywer and when she doesn't agree with the other laywer questioning a witness she shouts "Erection". She also farts a lot in the courtroom and she tries to blame it on the judge: "It was him!". Besides stinky bombs she is really dishonest and she has sex with any man available. Great season. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the best TV shows ever made. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
