I want Peter to wind up with Alicia and the family to be together at the end. Have Will meet someone and be happy too.

The show got so boring during the secret affair that started a string of lies to herself and family, she knew it had to stop it wasn't going anywhere but down the tiolet. Anyone who has been in that position will tell you get far away before your life is destroyed.

One of the very best shows on Television. Great writing and great acting. I personally would like to see more of the Will Alicia affair taking place. The people I know that watch it feel the same way.

This is such an intelligent, well-written show. Please, please, please put The Good Wife back in its original Tuesday night 10pm slot where it belongs.

I love this show and had heard it was to be cancelled. I am so glad it is on for season 4. Can't wait to see all the twists and turns.

As an avid fan I am so sick and tired of people trying to be writers of this show, they will write it so suspence and makebelieve keep everyone guessing who will come out on top.
Which means that the title "THE GOOD WIFE" will end supreme.

These bits and pieces are what makes and informs others that W/A fans are not the majority more so the minority. If you haven't noticed lately season 3 ratings were way down and if the writers and producers don't wake up soon there won't a long season 4.

If you keep posting bits from another source under different names it is not making it any more true.
We got it you really hate the thought of W/A together. That is okay, if that would be the majority of the people who watch the show I think they would go this way for sure, but it not the majority, no matter how often some people try to make it look like it.
Best way to see which is the fav. couple of a show is to look at the stories written by fans. Biggest source here is at the moment the FanFiction net. P/A not even one page W/A more than 7 pages. If I want to know if 'my' couple is going to happen I just go there and so far it never failed so far.
Writers always go with the majority cause face it, it is just business, I stopped watching some shows in the past where I did not like the lead couple etc. of a otherwise very good show, but it did not matter cause there I was one of few who did not like it and me stopping as well as a few others did never matter.

Nope, never saw Peter as evil, just as human as everybody on the show, I just find it funny that every time people post pro W/A there are such a wave of hate I do not understand. Those people paint Will most times as the pure evil and Alicia as the poor angel. But they are also only human, with all the flaws, good and bad things. This is why I added the winking smiley.
And about office romance I agree with you 100%.
Saw all the bad impact and I promised myself I would never ever find myself in such a situation.
Than I met ma current boss…. six years ago and it had an impact on everyone around us as well as on the firm. We tried to stop, we stopped, but than we are at the same starting point all over again and believe me we are not teenagers anymore!
This is a reason why I really like the show, cause it is not easy, but you also can not simply stop and pretend nothing has happened. This always get really messy when real feeling are involved and they always co

Most of the difficulties that came out of this year came out because of that affair. So I think Will is truly in love with Alicia, but Alicia — if it were another time, another place, and she didn’t have two kids and a campaign that was being kicked off — she would reciprocate in the truest way. I think that is the tragedy of that relationship: That caught each other a little too late in life. She knew it was wrong and what it would cause if found out by the kids, thats why she ran home quickly after the grand jury questioning. Will still has mother Dianne keeping a tight reign on him because of their fraud handleing of a lot of cases that are kept secret from the firm, also Alicia could get herself disbarred for just being named in any of them.

Well, Foo I assume you mean ending Alicia's affair with Will was a big mistake. As with most people who were so happy about that development, you obviously believe that reality should have no effect on this show. I've seen the negative consequences that result from most office romances. And if one is the boss of the other, it's just a disaster waiting to happen. I've always found it ironic that one of the main positive aspects of TGW is how there is both good and bad in all of its characters and the Kings try to show how they can evolve. But I suspect that you looked at Peter as pure evil and incapable of becoming "a better man." Why? Because it made it more justifiable for Alicia to have an affair with Will. And when that happened,I think the the show lost a lot of its uniqueness.

Kari, I agree with you completely. I stopped being a regular viewer of this show after the Season 2 finale, when the KIngs basically gave the finger to Team Peter fans. I have always thought that Alicia kicking Peter out for his one-night stand with Kalinda years before was more about wanting to sleep with Will with a clear conscious than being mad at Peter. Kalinda and Alicia didn't even know each other at the time. Confessing to Alicia about it would have only served to ruin Alicia's friendship with Kalinda and possibly cause Kalinda to have to quit her job. And he was a different person when he cheated on Alicia both with Kalinda and the hooker. All the fans who were so anxious for Alicia and Will to jump in the sack didn't want to admit that, even though the Kings spent all of Season 2 trying to prove Peter had changed. So now it's "The Good Wife(Don't Let The Name Fool You)" and that's disappointing. Perhaps Alicia and Peter will ultimately reconcile, but to much has happened to

The biggest mistake (and only one) was to end it! ;)

The mistake was made from the presidential suite at the hotel on the season finale 2, that is when she committed the hugh lie to her family and friends. Was it a mistake YES a very big one.

CBS’ The Good Wife closed out its third season Sunday night, while ABC’s freshman fantasy Once Upon a Time ranked as the evening’s highest-rated show.
Here’s some Sunday highlights: The Good Wife (9.8 million viewers, 1.7 preliminary adults 18-49 rating) slipped 11 percent for its final episode of the season (here’s our post-finale interview with the producers). Good Wife is already renewed for a fourth season, but we expect the acclaimed drama will either move to 10 p.m. on Sundays or shift to Fridays in the fall. Speaking of 10 p.m., CBS’ new police drama NYC 22 (7.6 million, 1.2) fell 14 percent to rank last in the hour.
ABC’s Once Upon (9.1 million, 2.9) was nearly steady, followed by Desperate Housewives (8.1 million, 2.5) and GCB (5.7 million, 1.9). NBC’s Harry’s Law (7.4 million, 0.9) was stable while Celebrity Apprentice (6.3 millio

overplayed m j fox and martha's attack. need to crush them and get them off firm's back. peter and alicia realize they need and like each other and could make things work as a united front in the gov's race.
will needs to be a lawyer again, foolish story arc, and hook back up withthe sports reporter, she is hot and a great character, THAT makes sense. Not willicia

I realize shows can't always be happy and light but I have to say the additions of Martha Plimpton, Michael J Fox, Matthew Perry, and Matt what's his name haven't made me a happy camper. I dislike all of these characters and really want to fast forward through their scenes. I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority.
Veronica: Do you love my daughter? Will: I'm sorry? Veronica: Because if you do it's time to stop being polite about it, You have a window, but it's closing....
