For a season that began with love in an elevator, the bar was set high for drama. But by the end of its run, season three of The Good Wife delivered all sorts of juicy plot goodness. A lot of the action felt very full-circle with Alicia kicking Peter out of the apartment only to end up with him back in their old home with the kids, Cary returning to Lockhart/Gardner, and Will straying...
The Good Wife Season 3: Episode 22: “The Dream Team” “We’re going to take a lot of money to make you go bankrupt. Thank you for the fruit though.” I am still trying to wrap my head around this season finale as in a meager episode, it boasted more plot exposition than we’ve beheld all season long. Did you gasp? I totally gasped. Kalinda’s backstory shifted into overdrive, yet I sort of feel more...
The Good Wife Season 3: Episode 21: “The Penalty Box” “The city’s top meth dealer in the waiting room with its top judge? Yes, that qualifies as awkward scheduling.” This episode was a bit tangential compared to last week‘s plot twistyness what with Peter’s campaign announcement. But we were privy to some essential story nuggets like Cary’s return to Lockhart/Gardner, Will’s surprising interest in his relationship with Callie, and Kalinda’s web of secrets that...
The Good Wife Season 3: Episode 20: “Pants on Fire” “A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting its shoes on.” Things just. got. interesting. Peter is running for governor of Illinois! And who’s that by his side clasping his hand in solidarity while he announces his candidacy? None other than the good wife herself. This season has dragged a bit as far as plot set-ups, perpetually suspensions,...
The Good Wife Season 3: Episode 19: “Blue Ribbon Panel” “Without the robes, these judges are just pussycats.” Matthew Perry is finally here! And he is acting like a little bitch! He is certainly not trying to make any friends this time around (had to, sorry). But as excited as I was to have him on the show, it felt like the arbitrary proceedings of the Blue Ribbon Panel kind of upstaged the long...
The Good Wife Season 3: Episode 17: “Gloves Come Off” “We disagree with each other we keep it in house. You want to back stab someone, do it right here!” If this were an episode of Lost (oh God, how cool would a Good Wife/Lost mash-up be?! Come on, internet, let’s get to it!), this would have been considered a Diane-centric episode. She ruled the roost and even got a little action out of...
The Good Wife Season 3: Episode 17: “Long Way Home” “And so it devolves from hopes, ideals, dreams, the glory of the law…to a turkey baster.” The Good Wife’s nuttiest wife killer, Colin Sweeney is back and ready to shake things up at Lockhart/Gardner (or should we call it Lockhart/Temporarily Suspended Gardner?). Man he’s creepy, but you kind of can’t help but love him. Will is dealing with his ongoing suspension, although his fellow...
The Good Wife Season 3: Episode 16: “After the Fall” “Wow, you look pretty good for an out of work loser.” –Kalinda to Will Never has anyone been more delighted about a suspension from work than our boy Will. The leisurely life agrees with him and he doesn’t seem to be missing the harried cases at Lockhart/Gardner one bit. That is until his pesky sisters show up… The case this week involved a documentarian...
The Good Wife Season 3: Episode 15: “Live from Damascus” “Death by a thousand paper cuts, this is one paper cut.” Sometimes The Good Wife makes me feel dumb. This case about the American protesters in Syria who disappeared thanks to some shifty software company run by a guy who looks like that trainer from The Biggest Loser really had me scratching my head. I just wanted more Will Gardner (I always do) and...
The Good Wife Season 3: Episode 14: “Another Ham Sandwich” “Who cares who she sleeps with? If she’s getting some, great.” -an astute juror This show really knows how to make a ham sandwich sexy. Last season, an episode entitled “Ham Sandwich” involved a grand jury and revealed Kalinda’s dalliance with Peter. “Another Ham Sandwich” revolves around yet another grand jury, but this time it’s Alicia’s affair with Will that’s revealed. On the stand....
