Another cracking case this week. Diane really was on FINE FORM, all I could think of whilst watching her scenes was Johnkm's likely reaction. My only gripe is that it's a bit unlikely Mandy would've been working on that story for two months when it was so clearly bullshit...

 

My favourite ep so far, I wonder if it's a coincedence that the husband wasn't in it. :D Loved the case and Jackie going crazy.

Haha, my reaction the Baranski scenes was as predictable as it gets... 'OH MY GOD THIS WOMAN IS f***ING AMAZING'. I loved her I'M PISSED OFF NOW bits and of course the final scene with her LEGS *.*

 

But yes, it was the best episode of the series so far. Nice to have Jackie back, even if I would rather have her being a passive aggressive bitch than a senile old fart, but I have faith some shit might go down in the near future. I loved the judge too 'I HAVE A WIFE DONTCHAKNOW...' AS IF! I love how, unlike most shows of this nature, the cases are clever and clearly have a lot of thought put into them.

 

Oh and yes, no Marc Warren was a blessing. No doubt he'll be back next week bringing all the menace of an out of date bag of crisps to proceedings.

SEE.

 

Wasn't that fantastic without THAT storyline bringing the tone down?

"If there’s one brand of Good Wife episode I just can’t resist, it’s a Diane-centric episode. Watching her gaze at the abandoned 27th floor and then march out of the elevator to her offices with renewed vigor was hot as hell. Later, when she took off her shoes and triumphantly put her feet up against the window? Even better. The Good Wife has been getting people hot and bothered with its Kalinda storyline, which some say is getting too raunchy. But for me, this is where the raunch is at. Nothing sexier than Diane at the top of her game."

 

:D

Where is THAT from? 'Cos it's AH-MAZING

So she's RUNNING AGAINST HIM then? I'm simultaneously pleased and annoyed by that but it should make for good drama at any rate.

 

The final scene this week was so sad and really well acted all round, but the actual case itself was a little less engrossing than the last few. Not sure exactly what game Nick is playing with Kalinda, but I didn't mind his little appearance this week because the I'M A BIG SCARY CRIMINAL I AM thing was toned down a lot. Oh and Nathan Lane during the chat with the bakery guy was hilarious!

DO YOU LIKE BRAZILIAN FOOD? :lol:

Christina Ricci was fabulous and I'm glad we'll be seeing more of Amanda Peet.

OMG what an episode. Stockard Channing, Bebe Neuwirth, THE RETURN OF THE LAUGH™, a gay interest case and the return of the HORNS to mask swearing. Amazing.

I'm loving all the Musical Theatre actors littering this show. It's wonderful.

So good was the episode that I am currently rewatching it. SO MANY MOMENTS.

It was a fun episode with lots of 'moments' but definitely not as great as last week's. The final scene however with the traffic drowning out naughty Alicia was fabulous.

What a fab episode to start the year. The return of Wendy Scott-Carr was great, as was getting to meet Louis Canning's wife.

I was all like YAYAYAY when Wendy strode in, but by the end of the episode it was more OH GOD HERE WE GO AGAIN. Seriously woman, GET A NEW THING, you've tried and failed, tried again and failed again, GIVE UP, MOVE ON, FLICK YOURSELF OFF, ANYTHING.

 

Seriously, I loved the episode beyond that one little thing. It's all hotting up nicely, I mean surely they are going to keep the firm but the journey to getting there should be an interesting one. The final scene was brilliant though and not at all what I was expecting. The scenes with Canning and Alicia and her being able to see right through him crap were hilarious - this show does humour so well.

Should I catch up with this?

 

IS HE GONE?

Yes and yes. Each and every case this season has been a marvel to watch unfold.

Alicia is up to something. I'm not sure I liked the way she acted in that episode, it all felt a bit out of character, especially the final scenes with her and Diane and in the conference room. I hope the pay off for all this is something good.

 

Just watched The Art of War. Where has this show been hiding? So nice to see a good episode after so many blips.

Should I catch up with this?

 

IS HE GONE?
