Okay, I really don't want more bedroom scenes with Kalinda but I appreciate they at least included a nod to her inner-life when she absolutely could not deal with Lana discussing real emotions / important life experiences with her. (I think the only person Kalinda has allowed to admit to real feelings to her and not…

I agree with this —basically once Eli told her that she *couldn't* do it, I think she got pissed off about it (Alicia really doesn't like being told what she can't do).

Yeah, I definitely want a *Steve*-focused movie. There's a lot of mileage left on that character (where as Iron Man had kind of…reached a natural conclusion to his arc, I guess).

I like a lot of his indie films (like Kiss Kiss Bang Bang) but not the mainstream stuff (The Judge, that comedy he did with Zack G. a few years ago…Due Date, I think?).

I….didn't think of that. Because if that's what they're worried about…that's idiotic. They've set up this universe really nicely and S v. B seems like a mess. It's like they are chasing someone who is 20 steps behind them and they really, really don't have to.

they are reporting 30-40 days of filming…which sounds substantial to me? But maybe with a move this big, it isn't… (Don't these things film for three or four months?)

Okay, my objections seem to be different than everyone else's — I don't care if they do Civil War or not in the MCU (obviously they are going to adapt it to fit the movieverse).

Just wanted to post a thanks for the dear departed Will for giving us an awesomely mean thing to say when people are terrible.

Seriously, there's a Daily Show joke about how many Illinois governors have gone to jail (it's…a surprising number). The Good Wife is actually not even being that out there when it portrays these versions of politicians and lawyers.

yeah, but she was also attracted to his idealism and then he was revealed as a big old fraud. So…they were still working with a *little* but of that old TGW-pull-the-rug-out-from-your-assumptions-thing.

I found myself deeply sad for Alicia after the episode and puzzling over why I only came to the conclusion that it seemed that Alicia was basically on her own in life and she didn't have a "go to person" who really could cushion the blow of life. (Eli, of course, cares for her a lot and Finn certainly seems…

So after not liking 6x01 very much, the last two episodes worked much, much better for me. That's a relief (I can't live in a world where I don't like this show).

the primary thing that felt like the show I'm used to (pace + writing) was the scene where Alicia is driving the car and having 3 different conversations and is freaking out in a controlled Alicia way.

It's really interesting to me that it is Cary that is having his privileged worldview tested and *not* Alicia. I want Alicia's privilege tested more than Cary's (Cary's been fired, I think twice? And generally neglected…so I'm not thrilled this is how he's getting the spotlight on the show right now).

Yes, out in the open. Will would have been a hilariously awkward stepfather-type person and I really wanted to see that. I mean, he was kind of bad at "normal" human interactions like that, in spite of his otherwise charming performance in court and in his professional life.

Even though this is all true I always wanted them to try to have a normal, open relationship (Alicia never wanted that, though I think Will really did circa early season 3).

I really hated this episode and have felt bad about it because most critics are loving it. But I have a lot of objections to this storyline mostly because it doesn't "feel" like the Good Wife — it feels like they are trying to sustain the level of energy they had in season 5 and I don't think that is possible unless…

I blame the writers for not developing the Alicia/Cary partnership more (they spent most of the season obsessed with the Will/Alicia relationship to the detriment of a lot of other relationships on the show).

Yeah, you have a point. I just hate that Canning's bullshit is hurting Diane. He's really horrible and Will isn't around to stand with Diane. And basically this situation calls for a super-loyal but somewhat unethical person to fix it and that's Will.

For someone with so little screen time I really, really dislike Reina. Canning badmouths his own firm and you take it as gospel — shouldn't you, like, reflect on that?
