The continuity of which year the kids are in is all strange. Landry tutors Riggins, but he doesn't graduate until season 4. Similarly, Julie is said to be a sophomore earlier in this season but she doesn't graduate until season 4. I guess they needed to keep some of the original cast after the switch to East Dillon,

The only one of those I've seen is the Melbourne Theatre Company production of The Drowsy Chaperone. Geoffrey Rush was playing the fan of the show, and he was fantastic. Lucy Durack, who was Galinda in the Australian production of Wicked played the Sutton Foster part. She's good, but she's not Sutton Foster.

Australian TV awards (the Logies) are pretty ridiculous. It's the Emmys and the People's Choice Awards all in one, and more emphasis is put on the Gold Logie, which is a public vote on 'best TV personality' than on the merit based awards (I can't think of a better way to phrase that). That being said, Melissa George

This season was so good that I didn't hesitate to call it my favourite show anymore. I loved that the show blew up the Cary/Alicia relationship, they've never yelled at each other like that before. Not even when Alicia was offered the associate position over Cary in the first season.

The miniseries Secrets and Lies that aired in Australia was so bad I couldn't make it past the first two episodes, so I really hope the remake isn't just a carbon copy of it. It'll be interesting to see how it goes though.

It was an interesting article, and I agree to an extent. I definitely see more parallels between the shows now than I would have at the end of the second season. The distrust of institutions is definitely there, but Chicago isn't as much a part of The Good Wife as Baltimore is the main character of The Wire.

Yes, that moment was great, but my favourite scene was when Alicia figured out about the tap. My favourite scene in any season of The Wire is when people figure out they're being wiretapped.

He mentioned having been in the New York office, but they only just bought the firm in New York as part of Will's grand expansion plan, so he only would have been there a few months.

I agree completely, but even though it was a case of the week episode (even two cases of the week if you count the State's Attorney case and the NSA case), they were cases that were the result of serialised plotlines, and I loved it. It felt like The Good Wife was properly back.

I can't stand Peter, but I loved how he got the truth out of the Senator. I believe my reaction was "how did this show make me like Peter?", so props to the show for that, especially since Peter acted completely in character and did the sort of shady things that got him in legal trouble in the first place. The way

I think that was the first episode of the show I ever watched because I found reruns on cable and for some reason I went back and watched the whole thing. I'm fairly sure it was Lois.

I love Big Love, but that stuff with Hollis Green in Mexico wasn't very good, so I hope they move through that material quickly.

That's true. I love that first episode she's in, and when the case is over the two of them just say "Well that was fun, see you next time"

I have been waiting for Alicia to more or less end her marriage with Peter for five years, and I'm so happy that it's finally happened, even if Will had to die.

I think it was great that they brought her back because it was so strange, and the way she was dressed and her personality made a great contrast to how Alicia was feeling at that moment.

She's usually in the season finale because of Martha Plimpton's commitments to Raising Hope, but if she's on The Good Wife more next season thanks to Raising Hope's cancellation, I'm not going to complain.

I think I probably watched the first season over a weekend. I was going through a breakup and this show made me feel all the feelings but it was also incredibly comforting and just really, really good. I don't really like sports that much (and don't understand football at all, even though people explained it to me

What a waste of a trip to Antarctica. That's all I can think about after reading this review.

I said this somewhere else, but when I saw the client look at the gun, I just thought he was going to kill himself because he didn't want to go into solitary, but then there were multiple gunshots and I was in complete denial until I saw the body.

I really don't think Alicia would do that to Cary after all the work they put into building their own firm. But that's the reasoning I put into arguing against my own worries that this is the endgame of the season.
