Season 1 review: The US TV schedules have never been shy of legal thrillers, and at first glance, The Good Wife is the kind of show that might easily blend into the crowd. And yet is has some key assets in its corner that lift it into something altogether more interesting. The key asset to The Good Wife is Julianna Marguiles in the lead role of Alicia Florrick. Not long after we meet her, we discover that her life has been blown apart by the actions of her husband. Thus, in the middle of her life, she has to restart her career as a junior at a law firm, where... she finds herself competing against the younger, fresher graduates. Its an interesting dynamic, and one thats strengthened enormously by some terrific writing and thoughtful cases. For its the storytelling thats the other main strength of The Good Wife, and thats likely to keep you gripped right the way through this maiden season. Granted, theres a feeling that it often covers ground that many shows have got to before. Yet The Good Wife puts a strong enough spin on the formula to emerge as a quality TV show in its own right. --Jon Foster [show more]
