The Good Wife - Red Team, Blue Team
. This is my favorite episode of the season, and to be honest, the best episode in a long while by far. I enjoyed every minute Alicia was onscreen. I think Alicia in anger mode and refusing to take anyone's crap may be my favorite thing about the show nowadays. It always seems to lead to the best moments.
- Alicia is a great lawyer and we really got see her shine here. I love that she wiped the floor with Will and Diane. I love them but they kinda deserved it here and watching them get oneupped by Cary and Alicia each time was pretty satisfying.
- I like Will and Alicia, but I thought the kiss came out of nowhere. This is not s1 or s2, where this type of moment would have felt natural because their feelings for each other was always present and a major factor in their lives even if it wasn't the focus. Whereas for a while now the show hasn't really addressed this or even alluded to their feelings for each other, that it felt just thrown in. I did love the scene though. Alicia was amazing. It's crazy that, even for someone like her, she took this long to lose it like that.
- If it wasn't for Claire Danes who deserves every award she's gotten so far and will most likely continue to win for her work on Homeland, I'd say Julianna earned herself another Emmy for this episode.
- One of my favorite things about this season as been Cary and Alicia getting along. I loved their scenes so much I almost wanted Alicia to take him up on his offer. I only hope what happened doesn't mean Cary is going to get bitter again. It would be awful to go down that path again after they are finally working together and getting along again.
- Minimal Kalinda, who is just there to help out and have nice moment or two with Alicia and Cary was nice. Sadly, considering I used to like and want to see more of her, having her in type of role now makes me happy.
- Elsbeth is my favorite guest star in long time. She is playing the type of character that could get really old really fast, and yet it completely works and I love her having on the show anyway. I'm not getting tired of her at all. I've had my issues with way Eli as been used for a while now, but hanging out with Elsbeth is making me enjoy his storylines again. I like them together.
- Cary's "more or less" moment killed me. So did Diane and Will's reaction shots everytime Alicia or Cary oneupped them.
- I'm really enjoying the conflict between Alicia and the firm this season. I think the show is getting a lot of great material out of it. And it's turning out to be a great storyline for Alicia.
