"The Good Fight" (Season 1)
Figured the spinoff warranted a new thread.
"A year after the finale of The Good Wife, an enormous financial scam destroys the reputation of young lawyer Maia (ROSE LESLIE) and wipes out the savings of her mentor Diane Lockhart (CHRISTINE BARANSKI). The two are forced out of Lockhart & Lee and join Lucca Quinn (CUSH JUMBO) at one of Chicago’s pre-eminent law firms."
The series regulars are Christine Baranski, Cush Jumbo, Rose Leslie, Sarah Steele, Justin Bartha, Delroy Lindo and Erica Tazel. Bernadette Peters and Paul Guilfoyle will recur.
Carrie Preston, Zach Grenier, Gary Cole and Jerry Adler will return from the original series in recurring roles as well.
The first episode will premiere February 19th on CBS and subsequent episodes will debut weekly on CBS All Access (it has a 10 episode first season order).
SO READY FOR THIS. I will subscribe to this dumb streaming service just to watch it

I might have to do the same if I here this is good. It's tough to say - The Good Wife's final season was very disappointing. And I'm still a bit bitter about that final episode.

I already have CBS All Access so not much of a change for me, but I'm SO READY for this. They better not mess a Diane spinoff up.

Is it even worth it? I watch nothing on CBS anymore other than "Mom" and have a DVR, though I'm considering cord-cutting so could come in handy.

Re: "The Good Fight" (Season 1)
I'll check it out at least. TGW is one of the best shows ever. But regarding CBS All Access I'm more looking forward to the new Star Trek series.

Re: "The Good Fight" (Season 1)
This premieres tomorrow!
I just subscribed to CBS All Access for it and this is the worst service ever. I caught up on five episodes of "Mom" and the rest is completely useless. I have zero interest in watching 95% of the shitty CBS shows on this service and the ones I do have interest in are available on other services or I've already watched. Such a waste of money
Excited to watch this though.

Re: "The Good Fight" (Season 1)
Isn't the first episode being shown on CBS? Will they release the whole season at once or will they release episodes weekly?

Yes, but it's going to be censored. The version online is supposed to include language/sexual content that won't be in the CBS version.
They're premiering one episode tonight on CBS and two will be on the app. Then it will be released weekly (the season is still filming).

Why didn't you wait for the season to end then join, binge it, cancel it and save money?

OMG I missed this universe so much. The pilot was really good. Going to watch the second episode tomorrow.
Lucca and Diane were A+++++

Re: "The Good Fight" (Season 1)
This just had one of the best first seasons of any show in a long time and it kills me that it has been underseen due to being on a subpar streaming service. Perfect for fans of the original show and new viewers as well. It's such a well-done series and I love the characters. The finale was excellent.
