    The "Online TV forum" designation is based on where the show is produced for. The Good Fight is produced for CBS' VOD service, "CBS All Access".

    If it's on terrestrial TV, we'll leave it here.

    I am really surprised how strong the series is I wasn't expecting it to be this good.

    All we need now is for Eli Gold to swing by the office to visit his daughter. :D

    Folks,
    Where can I watch this online?

    Tried the More4 app, but just get vertical coloured lines with sound.

    Thanks.

    watched the first episode when it came out. but waited a while and watched the rest of the episodes up to date. really enjoying it. it's like the good wife when it was really good. like people have said, the guest stars from the good wife are great so far. Great to see Colin Sweeney back !!

    So...
    season 1 finishes on a (minor?) cliffhanger and
    Season 2 won't be here until 2018. :(
    Interesting interview with the series creators here.
    (Warning contains S1Ep10 spoilers)

    http://www.eonline.com/news/843576/the-good-fight-bosses-tease-season-2-musicals-cliffhangers-and-the-power-of-the-law

    Been a really great season, looking forward to more!
    Glad to see there's no plans for 'Alicia Florrick' to appear but 'Eli Gold' may reappear in season 2.
    $hit..does that mean 'The Good Wife' would have been a better series without 'the good wife' all along?? :eek:

    A great end to a great little season and a nice cliffhanger to finish on knowing it's been renewed for a second season.


    As much as I liked Alicia it was the supporting cast that made The Good Wife.

    Really enjoyed this series from start to finish and the finale sets up Season 2 nicely. Only minor niggle was the utter incompetence shown by the DoJ chief plugging an unknown, potentially harmful flashdrive into his work computer and then arresting Lucca as an (obviously innocent) accomplice. 'Twas kinda implausible I thought.

    So happy to see Diane and Kurt on the path to reconcilliation, though. That scene with Diane in the hospital looking over and seeing the guy with one shoe missing on the guerney was a nice touch. So many flashback feels :(

    Also - I'd totally watch Mr. Brown and Fran. Start that series campaign now!

    I thought that was a fantastic nod to Will.

    An excellent end to an excellent spin off. Exceeded my own expectations and definitely felt like The Good Wife in its pomp. If I wished any changes for season 2 though, it'd be to give Barbara more time and room as she got frozen out completely; maybe recast Maia''s girlfriend too as there was little chemistry between the two. And the Julius subplot felt very pointless, I'd like to see him back as an antagonist in the company but maybe give him more to do than simply be "the Trump voter".

    +1 on the hospital scene with the patient missing a shoe. A subtle and heartbreaking nod to Will

    Great news; had forgotten about this show, but as spin-offs go I'd argue that Good Fight has been as good as Good Wife in its pomp.

    Definitely a huge improvement over season 6 and 7 of the good wife for me anyway, but season 5 of the good wife was terrific I thought.
    At least there are going to be more episodes in season 2!

    Wonder if Netflix threw any cash CBS' way for international rights to this, or if their partnership is only for the new Star Trek.

    Wouldn't it be great if Eli Gold showed up as a series regular?
    Here's hoping! :)

    Alan Cumming's new show starts on CBS next month (Instinct)so there might be a small chance he may guess in an episode I doubt he will join as a regular.
