The Good Wife @ WikipediaThe Good Wife @ IMDbAttorney-at-law shows have always been an off and on thing for me. Back in the days I watched
Matlock and
L.A. Law, then later
Ally McBeal. But then I fell off the bandwagon and while
Boston Legal seemed to be funny it never managed to make me tune in.
Today I heard about this show with Julianna Margulies (Carol Hathaway in
ER) and I thought "Why not?". So I "organized" the pilot episode and watched it. And I really did like it.
Alicia Florrick is the wife of a fallen state attorney who's now in prison and she returns to her job as lawyer at a law firm. The characters seem to be interesting and the case was good, too. And I loved that Alicia's teenage daughter put the theme of
Twilight Zone onto Alicia's cell phone as ring tone for when her mother-in-law calls.
