7 Ways How The Good Wife Got Its Groove Back This Season

Nick who? That's what fans of The Good Wife are — thankfully — asking after a recent string of strong episodes have erased the unpleasant first half of Season 4  from memory. In September, the legal drama (airing Sundays at 9/8c) suffered a rare critical misfire when it introduced Kalinda's (Archie Panjabi) cold and abrasive estranged husband Nick (Marc Warren), who was not popular with the fans. No irreparable damage was done, but for a show that was regularly in critics' top 10 lists during its first three seasons, the negative attention was surprising. Producers caught on and quickly expunged Nick. Less than four months later, the show is stronger than ever. So how'd they do it? Here's seven ways...read more

Dylan Baker on Colin Sweeney's Return to The Good Wife

When accused wife-killer Colin Sweeney (Dylan Baker) turned up in The Good Wife's first season, it was loathe at first sight. Sweeney knew exactly which of then-first year associate Alicia Florrick's (Julianna Margulies) buttons to push, and since then the writers have used the twisted relationship to set up some of the show's best shows. Sweeney returns for the March 31 episode, which sees the domestic bliss he's found with former employee Isobel (Morena Baccarin) and their son threatened by the Supreme Court. Baker called up TV Guide Magazine from the Anchorman 2 set in Atlanta ("I haven't ruined any takes yet by laughing, but it's early days," he admitted) to talk about the return of everyone's favorite slimy — or "uncomplicatedly, refreshingly open," as Baker puts it — Lockhart/Gardner client...read more

The Good Wife Gives John Noble a Role to Die For

It's the Fringe-Good Wife crossover we never knew we wanted: John Noble is taking his talents to the law firm of Lockhart/Gardner on Sunday (9/8c, CBS) as one of Alicia's eccentric clients who can't seem to keep himself out of court — and who's been murdered as of the beginning of the episode. (He's subsequently seen in flashbacks.) Aussie native Noble called up TV Guide Magazine to talk about Fringe withdrawal, The Good Wife and domesticity.

The Good Wife First Look Photos: Colin Sweeney Is Back! But Is He Going Away for Life?

Last week, The Good Wife entered an ethical grey zone while defending one of her biggest clients — drug kingpin Lemond Bishop. Alicia's morals will get quite the workout once again when another of her most noted clients — millionaire (and murderer) Colin Sweeney — returns in the March 31 episode of... read more

The Good Wife First-Look Photos: Alicia Dresses Up to Go Head-to-Head with Mike Kresteva

Seriously, Mike Kresteva will do anything to win a one-way ticket to the governor's mansion on The Good Wife.

After first exploiting his son's illness, it appears Peter's opponent is now going to a higher power — Cardinal James to be exact — as the election nears.  In these new photos from The Good Wife, Alicia (Julianna Margulies) puts on her finest grown-up clothes for an event where she runs into an equally dapper-looking Mike Kresteva (returning guest star Matthew Perry). However, it... read more

The Good Wife Bosses on Alicia and Will, "War" at the Firm and Kalinda 2.0

Breathe easy, Good Wife fans. The end of the show isn't near.  Just the end of Peter's gubernatorial campaign.

"We have every reason to anticipate we're coming back," co-creator and executive producer Michelle King told reporters on a conference call Monday. Added her husband, co-creator and executive producer Robert King, "We're writing as if we're coming back."

No one can blame fans of the CBS legal drama for being concerned. For all the show's critical acclaim and big-name guest stars, The Good Wife dipped to a series low 1.4 rating in the adults ages 18-49 demo on Feb. 17. The show bounced back to a 1.6 the following week, and the Kings said the ratings haven't been an issue with CBS. "They're very sophisticated in terms of how the ratings work," Michelle said. "They've never given anything but a positive response and they really focus on the creative and just... read more

Carrie Preston Adds "Cayenne Pepper" to The Good Wife as Fan-Favorite Elsbeth Tascioni

Elsbeth Tascioni (Carrie Preston) sure does get around.

In the first season of The Good Wife, she not only helped the Florrick kids cover up Peter's (Chris Noth) brief (but illegal) house arrest breach, but she also got him acquitted. In Season 3, she came to Alicia's (Julianna Margulies) defense against the Treasury Department before helping prevent Will (Josh Charles) from being indicted. Now in Season 4 (Sundays at 9/8c on CBS), she's up to bat once again — this time to... read more

The Good Wife First Look: Audra McDonald Battles Alicia! Plus: Who Is the New Kalinda?

On The Good Wife, Alicia (Julianna Margulies) has lamented many a time about not having many female friends after her fallout with Kalinda (Archie Panjabi). Now, one of her law school friends is coming back into her life, but it may not be good news.
