I was very happy to know that the legacy that was The Good Wife would still be continuing. It was a little sad that I came to the show very late in the game. I discovered and started watching it in season 5. When it ended I just couldn't get enough of it so that was not so amazing.
Seeing that it would still have life, just not exactly the way it used to be; instead with Diane at the helm (of course, the King's are still in charge, so that is amazing.) I waited to see the season premiere and was very much excited to see it when it aired. It was great, Diane at her best, (Christine is amazing & always commanding) & Luca was great as always. Her character was introduced to The Good Wife far too late, so seeing that her character get's to live on once again is awesome. I am sad that Cary (the wonderful & always handsome Matt Czuchry) did not carry over into this new adaption & avenue.
It had me riveted at every moment, and of course intrigued; since that is what the King Duo can always do with their amazing writing direction & talents. However, I am also sad to say that CBS decided to up its game by making the audience see it on TV, then forcing you to only be able to continue the follow with its streaming platform "All Access." I'm sorry; but I am not forking out more money for yet another streaming platform, especially for one single show. That is just not going to happen. I guess I won't get to see how Diane & Luca's story gets to continue, with the addition of Justin Bartha whom I have always loved from National Treasure. He is a great actor & of course very easy on the eyes. I will not get to see him start his character in "The Good Fight" though; since I will not subscribe to "All Access."
On a somewhat different note; but at the same time a hopeful note there is another possibility. The announcement of failure, & plug pulling that has happened to "Doubt;" has forced a different outcome. I am wishing that the lack of subscribers for All Access following the premiere of "TGF;" that CBS see's the stupid path they thought would come about, & in return, move The Good Fight into the Doubt time slot.
Hopeful thinking...
