The Good Wife Scoop: Storylines and Guest Stars Galore

Thank you, Robert King. At the Television Critics Association's winter press tour, the co-creator of The Good Wife was an open book with reporters.

When will certain guest stars appear? What's going on with Kalinda? Can he reveal any more about America Ferrera's role? Below, the executive producer responded to all these questions and more....

Kalinda vs. Blake: King teases a "battle royale" between Kalinda and Blake later this season. He also says we'll discover something about Kalinda that will "make a lot more sense." Hmmm...

More Owen: Dallas Roberts will appear on two more episodes this season.

What about America? Ferrera will guest star in three episodes, portraying "someone who Eli thinks he's going to use in the campaign, but in the process he struggles with the fact that he's becoming attracted to her," King said. "He's going to use her to create a scandal about Wendy [Scott-Carr] in the campaign."

As for other guest stars and the dates on which they'll arrive? Check out this handy calendar:

• Jane Alexander: February 1
• Michael J. Fox (who will return again late in the season) and Method Man: February 8
• F. Murray Abraham and Rita Wilson: February 15
• Jerry Stiller, America Ferrera and Gary Cole: February 22.
