I also really liked The Good Wife and know what you mean about withdrawal symptoms Treebee. Haven't really got into the spin off watched the first episode and then missed a few but apart from Diane Lockhart and The English actress you referred to, Cush Jumbo, who plays Lucca Quinn I haven't engaged with the new cast

I really enjoyed The Good Wife but wasn't as keen on The Good Fight - the storylines didn't seem as convincing.

I enjoyed the Good Fight too. It helped with my Good Wife withdrawal symptoms! I hope there's a second series. Loved the main character, did I read she's an English actress? Sorry, have forgotten names.

Hope The good wife gets repeated as love watching Diane, brilliant actress. Really enjoyed Ally McBeal too.

I've only just found it but really enjoying it. I used to love Ally McBeal I wonder if they will show that again and indeed Rumpole!! Love a legal thingy.

So pleased this has been seen by more people. I wrote about it here in March but thought I was the only one watching!

It's a follow up series after The Good Wife, Diane the Lawyer is in both. Would recommend the Good Wife have watched every one.

I can second that, watched it a few months ago and really enjoyed, brings up some interesting issues and is well acted. Hope it comes back for another series. Enjoy Teetime. smile

This is a fictional programme about a firm of New York Laywers which is very interesting to watch if you are interested in how the law works. I watched an episode yesterday that was about a social media website trying to remove confrontational, harassing and at times abusive postings from the site. It was very intriguing that this activity which is quite common seemed to be viewed as form of social protest and at times legitimate. Its worth a watch.
