It's been two weeks since I've mentioned anything about television. This is what has happened since the week of premiers: Another one of my shows I love to watch, The Good Wife, has started up for season two, and the show I fell in love with, Lone Star, won't have a season two. Actually it wont even have an episode three. Yes, in a previous post, I explained how Fox was contemplating taking the show off the air because of it's poor ratings for its premier. Well, after viewer-ship went down even further for the second episode, they immediately took it off the air and replaced it with the new season of Lie To Me. I'm quite disappointed. The show had major potential and an awesome storyline. I'm just sad that the show wasn't allowed, at least, a quick finish; instead of a huge cliffhanger. I guess that leaves the rest to the imagination.
Nevertheless, I'm now distracted from that mishap, and literally obsessed with another show. The Good Wife has resumed for Season 2. The first episode [2 weeks ago] started with an exciting case dealing with a man she deemed guilty. She had to make the ultimate decision and choose whether or not to defend the man.
While dealing with the almost impossible case, Alicia Florick had to choose to leave her husband for a long-time crush, or stay with her cheating husband. Ultimately she has no choice in the matter and decides to move on with her life.
Her cases this season seem to be more gutsy while she attempts to, more or less, confront the judges on their mistakes. Her rivalry with her former associate, Cary, has started to heat up as well this season. The second episode [last week] began with a case winner for Alicia, which then took a startling twist into Military Court. Being unfamiliar with the different codes and laws intertwining in the system, the "Good Wife" has to battle her way with a particularly biased judge and jury. This show has drama, it has family, it has action, it has a good-looking cast, and the "law and order" aspect of the show collectively makes this a great edition to my Tuesday nights. Actually, that seems to be one of the only shows I'm looking forward to, because with The Good Wife, you never know what is going to happen. Ultimately, this television show is recommended to anyone looking for a new guilty pleasure. It won't let you down.
