Couldn't stand Elsbeth as a character on TGW but personal feelings aside, I don't see this working. Elsbeth is the kind of character that only works in small doses

I agree 

 

what’s next Meryl Streep daughter and a show about ha manipulation or one with that pregnant lady.

 

its like they’re trying to deconstruct the good wife and monetize all the good elements 

 

expect La Femme Kalinda on the CW next

I actually disagree. On Network or free cable, it has been proven that odd-lead-character in procedural are what - old - audiences like to watch: Monk, House MD, Good Doctor, etc.

I like that they go back to CBS for something less risky than the Good fight, where after a strong start, the show went to political satire goofy compared to the tone of the OG (and one of the best of the genre) show.

 

Hope to get lots of seasoned broadway actors and some cameos from both shows, even with the "official" city change.

I hope they develop another drama series for Diane Lockhart actually... just wanna see how she would run the all-female law firm

I'm watching The Good Fight at the moment and honestly idk why she even got a show, Diane was never the most interesting or compelling character. I would've loved the spinoff to have been about a young Diane making her way up the ranks all the way to partner, especially since she came up in a time where female lawyers were nowhere near as common

The way I could see this happening... or Cary Agos moving to LA to join the new Suits spinoff. 

:bibliahh:

The pilot was fantastic. Stupid that the second episode won’t air until April 4. Scored good ratings too.

Very enjoyable. Very CBS. Much lighter in tone than Good Wife and Good Fight. I can't wait for some old character crossover (loved the Cary Agos references already).

 

However, I am sad So Help Me Todd was cancelled for this.

I'm liking it, but it's no Good Wife or Good Fight. Also found it interest they seemed to dial the camp for this series a bit, I'm not mad about it though.
