Through two episodes of season two, we've complained that The Good Wife is crossing too much into soap opera territory.

The latest spoiler news regarding the drama doesn't really dissuade us of that notion: according to EW's Michael Ausiello, the series is casting for Cary's cousin, Molly. Cary will give her a tour of the University of Chicago... and she'll admit that she has feelings for him! Ewww.

Elsewhere, Elizabeth Reaser guest stars later this season as a love interest for Will. Let's see what producer Robert King has to say about her role:

“She plays a sports writer, and she and Will develop sparks in a way that Will hasn’t with any other woman except Alicia. We’re thrilled with [Elizabeth]. I’ve loved her since The Ex List. She’s doing an excellent job.”

** The Good Wife airs a new episode on Tuesday, October 12. Watch a preview for it NOW.
