Kalinda storyline, very interesting. I hope they tie in Carey to her storyline, their so much there they haven't explored.
I'm a Will & Felicia fan, that draw is still there but as always the timing isn't right. Felicia needs to move on with her life from Peter that's why things seem to be stalling, Her staying to help him run for Governor is so beneath her character. Come on writers make a decision stay or move on! It's getting OLD!
Peter is a power hungry, ego driven sleazeball!
Will & Felicia, you can feel the heat when they are together , I want to put on a goosedown jacket on watching her and Peter.

The Champagne bottle scene was not needed when are the writers going to figure out the A/W days are over and we need more drama and family life to keep this show going. The ratings for sunday night were again on the low side and the other networks are putting their best against that and could make this the last season.
When can we see the dark side of Diane and Will, they are doing their best to take the firm to total Bankruptcy. This might be the perfect way for Alicia to see that her friend is nothing but a real backstabbing slez.

I liked the whole episode when kalinda was fighting with her ex I just thought she was hot I like her storyline but I prefer she was making out with Lana instead of him, I liked alicia and zach too,and I like the way diana and Will work together.

Great recap!
Nathan Lane putting David Lee in check was PRICELESS!
"You will get your money after we pay the bottle water guy"....hahahaha!
TGW writers, Why does EVERYBODY that hooks-up with Kalinda ends up pinning over her and wanting her back! I find that really funny.

The Will and Alicia relationship has ALWAYS been my draw to the show. Love their friendship and their connection.
Love how Will ALWAYS seems to have her back!

I'm already for Kalinda husband to go!!!
I saw this statement earlier and it sums up my feeling totally about Kalinda and the crazy azz sociopath husband of hers:
"Kalinda’s husband Nick (Marc Warren) shows up at the firm as a client. When Kalinda spots him and follows him into the parking lot, they proceed to beat each other up. By the time we see the duo again, they are in bed. I’m concerned about the direction of this storyline. Kalinda is surrounded by inherent mystery, and her character exudes a palpable sexuality. But do I want to see her in a dysfunctional relationship that mixes violence with passion? No, I do not."

I guess from this season premiere we're to conclude that when Alicia was deciding on whether or not to join Peter and the kids for pizza that she went in.....
I think Kalinda is what makes this show. It will definitely be interesting to see where this thing with her husband goes.
Who didn't see David Lee staying with the firm? I do think the trustee is indeed on the side of the firm. I don't think Carey or Alicia will be going anywhere.
Only thing that bothers me about this show is the time and day this show is on. Look for it to be preempted or come on late because stupid football next week.....

Sorry Melissa I disagree about Alicia handeling her sons case, yes there is a conflict of interest and she should of hired another firm to handle the case not hers.

I enjoyed this episode. Diane/Will relationship is the best thing about this show for me, I really hope they won't mess with that. It's awesome to see how they always have each other's back. I really don't care much about Kalinda and her troubles. Also for the first time I enjoyed Alicia's storyline here. And we never get enough Carey

This was a great start to the season! Very interested to see where this leads for Kalinda... but agree that I really don't like that after the violence she ended up in bed with her ex. Cary needs to help Kalinda get out of this so he can be with her ;)

Did anyone think it was weird that Alicia was Zach's lawyer? Not that it's illegal but I would think it was a major conflict of interest for your mother to be your lawyer. I would think in real life, she would assign it to someone else within the firm and just consult on the case...Other than that, ok episode. Solid but nothing really exciting for me

Julianna should go easy on all those lip (face) injections. She really looks like a was figure of some sort.
Kalinda's fight scene.. funny. Does she wear anything but a mini and boots?

Not feeling the whole Kalinda/Creepy guy thing, or that story line being pursued. I have always found the two children annoying, so I hope that was it with them. On the Cop/SA guys, this will undoubtedly rise up and put a kink in Peter's election aspirations, he'll probably beat it though. I half expected Nathan Lane to break into song and dance : ) Loved the way he put Lee in his place in just one or two moves! I don't think the Alicia/Will thing will go on, he's had time to think and was benched for quite a while, so he should be back working together with blondie to bring the firm back to snuff! He should meet someone who will knock him off his feet! Let Alicia rethink her part in Peter's life, are you in or are you out. Unless something clever comes down the pike the show is sputtering.
Well, I think it was an overall good show.
What I liked most was that she was allowed to say she will decide for herself. This is the way I want this show to go, or at least I hope it will go. Who reads here more, knows I am one for the W/A Team, but if it fits the overall storyline she can go to be with her husband again. I only think it should be made clear it is her choice, not because of her almost adult kids or some conventions.
I do not car who cheated first, or count ho often. I also never said Peter should burn in hell, those actors portrait people and people have flaws. I am old enough to know a failure in a relationship is never the fault of one person alone, sometimes people just start to part in ways they do not realise.
And before it starts again, this is still only a TV show :)

A good episode. I love how the writers connected all of the fighting. The way the police acted shows how political Illinois is. Of course this may true for all the states.
Give us more Carey time. He and Alicia are so good together.
Will seemed stale this season.
I just love this show!!!

The Good Wife, my a**! Are you serious? Her intense affair with Will (her boss, no less) was okay because she had kicked Peter out of the apartment a few days earlier? Although, to many of the female fans of this show, I don't think it would have made any difference if Peter and she had been still sharing a bed. And in S1 when she had her tongue half-way down Will's throat and then tried to go back for more, what exactly was "good" about that? But I'm forgetting something,I know. Alicia should have a free pass on any transgressions she committs because of what Peter did to her. How convienent. While Peter, who was condemend by many fans to burn in Hell for what he did to Alicia and his family (I admit he was scumbag for what he did) he's accused of being the same old Peter because he risked his political career to protect his son. Let's be honest here. This guy is in a no win situation. No matter what he does or how long he does it, the majority of the viewers of TGW will think he's st

I was very disappointed in the episode. The Kalinda scenes were pure schtick and not suitable for a show that has been as good as this in the past. There is no way in the real world Zack would have defied his mother, and the officer as well. And did Alicia seriously think that Will would want to celebrate the end of his suspension with her and not Diane? To me there were two highlights....when Peter wielded his power and when Nathan Lane basically told David Lee where he should go. I thought that scene was priceless.

I think (hope) this trooper will be back. He's a known face, as an actor, so it would be a shame to waste him in a tiny, throw-away part.

Loved this episode. It was jam packed. Smart and thought-provoking. Zach is going to go far in life....could work for the FBI or the CIA. Calinda's scenes were great....she is the Dexter in this show. Always doing the right thing to protect others but in an untraditional way. Cary needs more screen time and could hook up with Alicia....shocker. Diane and Will looked cosy....Alicia and Peter could do a sex tape that boosts his votes and it shows them working on their marriage/sex life.

when you don't force feed people this iCrap.. people let it slide...we dismiss it as regualr product placement that they have grown to regularily shake their heads at.. but when you do this overbearing BUY APPLE EVERYTHING NO MATTER WHAT!.. you get long overdue outbursts about all the shameless crap that happens

I grew up in Cook County & now have lived in central Il (about 60 miles north of Madison Co) for many years. Peter's comment on being SA in a county that matters is spot on Cook Co attitude towards rest of state. Particularly any place south of I-80. Way to go for the writers.
