The Good Wife season 6 (US pace) spoilers

Wow! Well after the whimper of a cliffhanger last season, the new series gets off to a bang. Poor Cary!

I love how these storylines just come from nowhere, but you just know they'll have huge consequences for the season ahead. How will his arrest affect the merger with Diane? Will it cause Florrick Agos to suffer enough to force Alicia to take up Eli's offer? Is Cary actually guilty?

Looks like Eli's daughter will play more of a role this season too.

So excited the best show on network TV is back!

Only episode one but it does look good already.

Back to what it did best, concentrating on the legal wrangling and drama rather than the tiresome "will they, won't they" scenario with Will.
The prison scenes with Carey were very good, the air of menace and isolation were depicted very well.
If it can maintain this high standard, "you know who" won't be missed.

Saw it about an hour ago. Really good start to the season.

Yeah agree it was a very solid start to the season.

JP Liz V1 · 22-09-2014 10:47pm

Matt Czuchry is one of TV's great underrated actors and glad to see Cary given a big storyline, good start so far

Nemanrio · 23-09-2014 4:12pm

You just knew that Lamon would turn up with the cash.

Cary was due a big storyline!

Delighted it's back

shinny · 29-09-2014 1:37pm

Great first two episodes season so far. Just caught up on last nights episode. I like the direction the show is taking. I agree, it was time for it to be about Cary!!

Loved the scene of Diane walking to the lift with her crew!

The shirtless guy was just stupid in my opinion. I know it was to emphasis the chaos (as was the ongoing office work) happening with Cary in the clink but I think that was a step too far for the writers. Wandering around the office with no shirt on. C'mon!

Of course it was unrealistic - but it was brilliant comic relief - just showing what happens when the chiefs are either busy not running for office and doing a little time.
Great to see a show spring back to near top form in its sixth season.

No I get what they were trying to do but I think it went OTT. They kind of bimbo-fied Robin too. There's no way her character would really say 5-10 to a potential client!

If the company is going to be a Female/Minority led organisation, will Cary's position be tenable?

Female / minority at the top levels. AFAIK the managing partnerships at the toppermost will be Cary / Alicia / Diane. At least initially. If Cary gets convicted, his position would be untenable in any law firm on the planet (outside of maybe parts of Columbia and Mexico).

furiousox · 29-09-2014 10:00pm

Another strong episode, enjoyed it.

red dave · 30-09-2014 2:14am

Really good two episodes. I hope Cary doesn't get hung out to dry. Diane leaving Lockheart was great, although I would have loved it they showed David Lee wandering what was going on with them all leaving together.

Great start to the new season, watched first two episodes yesterday, wasn't disappointed

Nemanrio · 07-10-2014 9:11am

You always knew she would run for it. :rolleyes:

One mention of Will & she bit.

Yeah, why does that guy keep goading her? It's a head scratchingly dumb tactic from him.

I don't see how Alicia running for State's Attorny will benefit the show at all. I like it as it is - a new case every week and the various internal power struggles and personal storylines.

Nice to see John Boy popping up this week, though

Yes! He played the farmer with the GM seed suing his neighbour.

I loved The Waltons back in the day

I really don't think I have laughed as much in a long time.

There were so many funny moments in this weeks episode.

There were so many funny moments in this weeks episode.

"Our son has had an abortion"
"Tell mum to stop hitting children"
Married Boyfriend in Gay Porn Shocker
The realisation that Governor Bigdick is into the interns mum - not the intern.

Getting funded by a drug dealer seemed like a bit of straightforward business after all that.

aine1980 · 13-10-2014 8:19pm

What a great episode, loved it!

I feared the show was dead in the water after Will Gardner's exit.
So glad to be proved wrong, this season has been fantastic so far!

Nemanrio · 14-10-2014 7:42am

I didn't enjoy hugely tbh. I fear this whole series will be about her becoming the states attorney.

JP Liz V1 · 15-10-2014 9:21pm

Archie Panjabi (Kalinda) is leaving

That is a shame, another huge loss for the show

Well at least hopefully it looks like

she'll be in the full season before contract finishes.

I know the writers envisioned a 7 season run for TGW.
The way things are going I wonder will they wrap it up in 6?

I doubt it they are having some of the best ratings the show has every gotten if they stay at the same levels money talks and it will go on.

expectationlost · 20-10-2014 3:59am

still an week behind but even last week I was wondering why the firm ever got so deeply into bed with bishop, usig the drug money didn't even seem to make moral diane blink

Just catching up on the new season and loving it so far!
Does anyone else kind of like Lemond Bishop? There's just something about him that's likeable, I think anyway.

I also thought that it would be a bit crap without Will but more action seems to have taken the place of the love story.

I definitely think one more season after this one is enough though, let it end on a high note, excellent ratings and brilliant captivating storylines and not flogging a dead donkey.

furiousox · 21-10-2014 8:09am

Weakest show of the season so far.
Not a lot happened and some of it was just plain silly.

I think her character can get pretty annoying at times. Just finish a sentence woman!

Also, where is Nathan Lane's character gone this season? I really liked his character and he's nowhere to be seen this season.

The Stage always comes first for Nathan.

"I'm not going to be able to do it this season," says Lane. "Maybe I could squeeze one [episode] in at some point, but I'm going to be in rehearsal and then in performances of a Terrence McNally play, so I don't know. ... I've had such a great time there. We'll see, if time permits."
