So what is going to become of Peter’s conversion experience? Did he really just become a Christian and is he still going to pursue politics after getting out of jail? (Yes, the writers went there. Will they continue to play fair?) Will Alicia’s quickie kiss with Will catch up with her? Will the Sarah Palin lovin’ gun expert get together with the Hillary Clinton lovin’ law partner. Click here for a sneak peek of Tuesday’s show. You can also view previous episodes to get caught up.
WHY should I care about this show? Now, that question can’t be answered in a few simple bullet points but I’ll try:
- Intelligent intrigue involving lawyers, a politican wannabe and a Sarah Palin lovin’ gun expert
- Scandal that knows its boundaries (or does it?)
- Clever family involvement with kids helping uncover secrets with latest knowledge of the online and digital world.
- Handling religion and politics in an amazingly transparent way but still careful and fair (so far).
- Excellent acting by the stunningly beautiful Julianna Margulies and refined Chris Noth not to mention several other amazing members of the cast.
I ask you, what is not to love?!
For a full description (which I snagged from their Facebook page), see below:
THE GOOD WIFE is a drama starring Emmy Award winner Julianna Margulies as a wife and mother who boldly assumes full responsibility for her family and re-enters the workforce after her husband’s very public sex and political corruption scandal lands him in jail. Pushing aside the betrayal and public humiliation caused by her husband, Peter, Alicia Florrick starts over by pursuing her original career as a defense attorney.
As a junior associate at a prestigious Chicago law firm, she joins her longtime friend, former law school classmate and firm partner Will Gardner, who is interested to see how Alicia will perform after 13 years out of the courtroom. Alicia is grateful the firm’s top litigator, Diane Lockhart, offers to mentor her but discovers the offer has conditions and realizes she’s going to need to succeed on her own merit. Alicia’s main competition among the firm’s 20-something new recruits is Cary, a recent Harvard grad who is affable on the surface, but is competitive to the core. Fortunately, Alicia finds an ally in Kalinda, the firm’s tough in-house investigator.
Gaining confidence every day, Alicia transforms herself from embarrassed politician’s scorned wife to resilient career woman, especially for the sake of providing a stable home for her children, 14-year-old Zach and 13-year-old Grace. For the first time in years, Alicia trades in her identity as the “good wife” and takes charge of her own destiny.
If you are NOT a Twitter user, leave your thoughts here and I’ll be sure to incorporate them into the discussion.
