Louis Canning and Patti Nyholm threaten to bankrupt Lockhart Gardner, and answers about Kalinda's back story just raise more questions



When I first read that The Good Wife's season 3 finale episode was titled "The Dream Team," I foolishly believed that the aforementioned team would be made up of one of the many badass lawyers at Lockhart Gardner. And obviously, Alicia would lead said team to victory. Silly me. The Dream Team is a job reserved for two of The Good Wife's baddies, Louis Canning (Michael J. Fox) and Patti...

Alicia defends Judge Cuesta, Cary returns to Lockhart Gardner, and Kalinda tries to convince Agent Delaney to drop her investigation


There's only one episode left of season 3 of The Good Wife. And I object! Clearly, we should leave the lawyering to the acting professionals. The honorable Judge Richard Cuesta (David Paymer) found himself in hot water after being put in the "penalty box." Cuesta had led the prosecution on a murder trail 20 years ago. Recent DNA testing -- which wasn't available at the time -- proved that...

The end is nigh! There are only two more new episodes left of season 4, so let's dive right in and talk about "Rape: A Modern Perspective." The case of the week featured a young woman, Rainey (Makenzie Leigh), who was suing her alleged rapist, Todd Bratcher, in civil court. Bratcher (Jason Hite) took a plea bargain during his criminal trial, and as such,...

Lockhart/Gardner tries to keep Colin Sweeney from receiving a life sentence, and Diane rekindles her relationship with Kurt McVeigh
By Breia Brissey @ EW



Hide your kids, and especially hide your wife because Colin Sweeney is back in town! The alleged wife-killer (played by returning guest star Dylan Baker) was back in action -- this time under fire for disorderly conduct. Alicia was on the case and believed that the oft-guilty Sweeney was actually innocent in this particular situation. Sweeney had thrown a birthday party that got out of hand, a gun was fired, and...

Hell hath no furry like Alicia Florrick scorned. In last night's "Pants On Fire," Alicia took on Jackie and Mike Kresteva. Picking up where we last left off, Alicia interrupted Jackie's salon visit to call her out on purchasing the Florricks' old home. Jackie had put a down payment on the house, so Peter and the kids could move in. (And she probably hoped she could join in on the family fun, too.) Obviously, that didn't sit well with Alicia, who felt like Jackie was trying to replace her. Alicia threw down the gauntlet...
