The Good Wife Season 3 (Premiers September 25)

lost my shit at the Low Winter Sun riff

surveillance nerds also terrifying

Glad to see Jonathan land on his feet, post-30 Rock.

Love how they committed to Shawn's "last name" gag, like it went from scary to funny then back to scary again. So glad this show is back..Even better if they find a cruel and humiliating punishment for the Irish guy.

lol thanks for reminding me he exists.

but they called it that on the front-page headline, at least

Shiiiiiit

o_O

Holy fuck

I am in total awe that they kept that under wraps.

Was I just watching Game of Thrones?

XP yeah no kidding!!!!!

WHAT

“Josh Charles approached us almost a year ago about wanting to leave the series,” Michelle and Robert King said. Charles was looking to leave the series at the end of last season, the show’s fourth, when his contract was up. After playing the character for four years, the actor indicated he was ready to move on.

dang. now i have to catch up on this season! i love this show

I like how they have a big spoiker alert graphic, at the end of the article.

More Diane can't be a bad thing. Sad about this though -- not so much for the character but 'cause Charles was just so much fun to watch in this role. Amazing comic timing.

Also I can't believe Jackie outlived Will.

just watched the episode was not expecting thaaaaat :((((

well that shit was real

striped hats!

The TV show seemed like a parody of the ramblings of True Detective.

It used to be a straight-up parody of Low Winter Sun, but they definitely threw in a little True Detective this week.

I caught the B-52s video for "Good Stuff" yesterday, and Fred Schneider is very David Lee-esque in it. Really adds a level.

September!

this nsa plotline is so awesome

sure are a lotta shows on network tv right now about how the government is spying on us

Anyone know the first song in the opening scene last night (4/27)? Mid- to late- 80s industrial (Wax Trax style) track. I used to hear it in clubs all the time back then but can't remember who it is now.

Second song in the scene was Trust's "Bulbform" which I was equally surprised and pleased to hear.

Ha -- found a clip online and played it three or four times trying to jog my memory, and suddenly realized it's "Chains" by Gatekeeper from like four years ago. I listened to that a lot right when it came out precisely because it reminded me so much of my clubbing days.

Diane and pity, lol.

so is he dying, or is he trying to screw me?

he is dying.

and he's trying to screw you.

scene with the water was a great power move.

well ok that was kind of a reshuffle

We're watching this on Amazon Prime and are about a quarter of the way through season 3 so I skipped all the posts to avoid spoilers but I love this show. Julianna Margulies is so pretty. I also like how nobody's hair is perfect. Also Matt Czuchry... whoa.

I do not understand your last two sentences together I mean Matt Czuchry is like flawless.

I'm too hypnotized by his smile to notice his hair.

so stoked for the new season

Indeed. Avoid promos if you can, hella spoilery

Show is so good. Got my wife hooked now too.

Getting this ready for tonight.

I'm glad I avoided spoilers!

Appropriately dizzying premiere. Hope Eli's daughter sticks around, she's a delight.

sheesh

Wonder if OITNB inspired this storyline.

does it have anything to do with the reason the/an oitnb lead is imprisoned?

cuz i would think it fits in perfectly with the good wife writers' zeal for depicting under-scrutinized horrors/absurdities of dealing with the legal system / government / surveillance bros
