    It is an addictive show, there is no doubt about that, but I gotta say that the writing and acting lacks of quality, (with exception of Josh Charles(Will) ,Matt Czuchry(Cary) and Mr.Big( Peter)).
    I can see how Julianna Margulies(Alicia) struggles to show any emotion due her plastics surgeries or excessive make up(performance wise is like another kristen stewart). Archie Panjabi(Kalinda)    It is an addictive show, there is no doubt about that, but I gotta say that the writing and acting lacks of quality, (with exception of Josh Charles(Will) ,Matt Czuchry(Cary) and Mr.Big( Peter)).
    I can see how Julianna Margulies(Alicia) struggles to show any emotion due her plastics surgeries or excessive make up(performance wise is like another kristen stewart). Archie Panjabi(Kalinda) portrays an awful but miraculous character that saves everyone, every single time, like a female version of James Bond minus the fx of a movie(literally like another character from another universe). I get why people like the show but this show will never reach superior standards and will be forgotten once it is over.
    And btw, I dont really know how they called the show "the good wife". Perhaps just as a mocking terminology??? because it displays completely the opposite of that. In what universe Alicia would be a good wife? It should not have a metacritic that high... I cant understand why this show has better score that breaking bad in some seasons.    … Expand

    There's a looser feel after so much anger and grief; jazzy instrumental music underscores the twisting and turning action. It's top notch TV by directors at the height of their game.

    The CBS drama continues to provide evidence that quality isn’t necessarily defined by blood, guts or exposed flesh. All it really takes is brains--and in this case, you don’t even have to eat them.

    A show that's every bit the equal of the best of cable.
