What Happened To Alicia Florrick’s Hair on ‘The Good Wife’?
A flaw in the sixth season was the underuse of existing characters on the series. So she’s forced to work at bond court, snapping up minor cases among other Chicago bar lawyers. I feel people just like to have gossip or make something into something that isn’t there.
Alicia is ready to accept her new Burn Notice-esque lifestyle. All she has is Grace running around pretending to be her assistant. That trend continued in the seventh (and possibly final) season premiere on Sunday night, as everything has been turned upside down since Alicia had to drop out of the race for Chicago state’s attorney and had a nasty split with her former law firm. One of the problems with last season was that the election storyline took her out of the courtroom, which is where she shines. The pace and anonymity of such assembly line law is an interesting change of scenery for the show, too, which is typically insistent on painting a vivid portrait of the client’s stories in its cases-of-the-week. There’s no time for any of Alicia’s eloquent and prepared arguments. What did you think of “The Good Wife” season premiere? It’s always compelling stuff to watch.
Looks like the answer to this question will be the major driving force of season 7.
When Lucca and Alicia were sitting at the bar together at the end of the episode, there was a certain, familiar pleasure to it. Is Lucca the new Kalinda? When Alicia is stuck filling in for Lucca in bond court, she asks Lucca to take over for her at the probate hearing. The woman needs a lawyer to help divide the assets of her mother’s will, which should be a fairly straightforward case because it’s just her and her brother – and an $8 million signed Chagall painting. Inside the Alicia-Kalinda conspiracy.].
It’ll be exciting to see where this friendship goes. Eli shouts at Alicia that it is none of her concern, and he was nothing more than “just the help”. With that, she calls Eli and tells him that Peter can officially run for vice president.
Not only is Eli going up against Peter, but he’s going against Peter’s new strategist Ruth Eastman, played by the wonderful Margo Martindale.
Eli’s justifiably hurt by the decision and threatens to find a candidate to beat Peter. Her character Ruth showed herself to be formidable in the early going, and did not do a good job of making many friends in the process. Moreover, these two characters are tied together by this season’s exploration of redemption; their both trying to recover from professional setbacks. Though there’s undeniable chemistry between them, he won’t be working exclusively for Alicia, and Robert confirmed that he’ll be working with Lockhart, Agos and Lee as well. He’s the youngest senior partner and is having a hard time relating to the people he’s working with.
As said by the cast member, the character really has a few issues with the bottle, given the fact that “she’s lonely”, and that the wine is the only thing that keeps her “numb” on what’s happening around her for a “little bit”.
The story might seem to be a bit far-fetched, but it does make sense as “The Good Wife” is looking at bringing politics to prime time television.
Who knew that “The Good Wife” would push the boundaries of television in such a unique way?
“This firm is becoming a laughingstock”, Cary seethes to Diane when the partners shoot down a new, technologically savvy billing system pitched by one of the associates. Alicia realizes that it wasn’t a coincidence that she got the Smulder case and had to go up against Diane and David Lee – Canning sent the case to her, it wasn’t from her website. The Education of Alicia Florrick contniues as she’s set to learn from the Devil.
