The Good Wife – Affairs Of State (S03E06)
CBS
Carey got the focus this week dealing with a Lockhart Gardner case and with internal office politics; literally, as Carey’s office space changed three times this week. We also met Eli’s ex-wife Vanessa (Parker Posey), though it looks like she won’t be coming back any time soon.…
The Good Wife – Marthas and Caitlins (S03E05)
CBS
The best episodes of The Good Wife are when the COTW (Case-Of-The-Week) fades into the background and makes room for the backroom deals, negotiations, and backstabbing that goes on behind-the-scenes at Lockhart Gardner.

Perhaps, the lack of Peter hurt the episode, but what really stood out was the manic way Eli was dealing with the cheese crisis.…
The Good Wife – The Death Zone (S03E02)
CBS
It’s clear the instant they are in the room together that Kalinda and Eli should have already had many, many scenes together. Not only do they have chemistry, but their characters are so alike. Eli said it by, “How have I not met your before?” Guaranteed, that line was said in the writers’ room this season.…
The Good Wife – A New Day (S03E01)
CBS
Wow. That was possibly the best sex scene on TV ever. If the picture and first sentence weren’t enough, this show is not targeted at the young. The third season premiere had a case of the week which was a bit weak and the normal subtlety of the show wasn’t up to the standard of the past two seasons; but despite all that, The Good Wife premiere was still above almost all other shows on TV.…
