Checked review to see what I missed. This one put me to sleep.. literally. Sounds like I didn't miss much.

Linda Lavin is as annoying as Elsbeth.Please, writers, these are secondary characters, they are not the leads and their self indulgent acting tour de forces stop the show, drag it down and are extremely distracting. Please get back to the main stories, issues, and characters soon!

Agree..these quirky characters do work better in small doses..in recurring roles..writers fall in love with them and these writers fell into the trap of focusing more on her and then they are not interesting, but just annoying..those scenes were like watching another show..that I hated.

The show has lost it's way. Get rid of the Elsbeth/Perotti farcical nonsense.. I don't watch Good Wife to get a dose of sitcom or sitcom acting.
