Credit: Elizabeth Fisher/CBS Death to all lawyers! yells the deceased attorneys client. And, finally, one of the court bailiffs has a heart attack in the middle of voir dire. But thats the brilliant thing aboutThe Good Fightsseason premiere. Or at least theyre trying to....
And, as her words indicate, Diane is content. Everythings going to be all right, Kurt says. It is my favorite my series on television.

As I mentioned above, the happiness Diane is experiencing doesnt last long. As she and Kurt get dressed for their days, she finds someones blonde hair on Kurts jacket....
A ricin scare and a ‘Bachelor in Paradise’-inspired case God, I loveThe Good Fight. Sometimes everything the show tries to do might not work, but its never boring. There are a few issues with both stories, but their sums far outweigh their respective problems. Credit: Elizabeth Fisher/CBS Obviously, the connection doesnt believe its responsible for Melanies assault, but it definitely is. The footage of the night in question is scary, troubling, and also awkward....
Liz finds herself facing off against Mamie Gummers Nancy Crozier. This leaves Liz disheartened. But of course, thats when she has an epiphany.

As always, it was fascinating and unflinching, and didnt go for easy answers. Even animated kids shows and QVC arent safe from him. Day 436 is very reminiscent ofThe Good Wifeseason 2 episode VIP Treatment. Credit: Elizabeth Fisher/CBS Kip Dunning is a powerful man who knowingly used his status to commit crimes against women. Adrian may not have noticed, but everyone else did. (Next: An awkward proposal) The Good Fightdoesnt attempt to give any easy answers to Adrians story....
In fact, both Adrian and the firm are already starting to see the benefits of viral fame. Reddick Boseman is a relatively small firm, so being asked to join this group is a huge honor. We eventually see Adrians first appearance on the cable show, and its pretty unremarkable. Credit: Elizabeth Fisher/CBS The cable news show invites Adrian back. He advises Adrian to stay in his lane and do the Obama-era Elder Statesman thing....
That means you cant prioritize the former at the expense of the latter. Clearly I was wrong to be concerned, because the show pulls it off here. Day 450 is an entertaining hour that deals with this hot topic without losing sight of its characters. Credit: Patrick Harbron/CBS Obviously, they cant agree on one. But the script never lets that happen. They never get too far into the weeds. Its not about truth, she says....
However, I think the writershandled the topic rather well. However, theyre in it now. As always, Starkey is up to her old tricks. Credit: Elizabeth Fisher/CBS Dominika reaches out to Olga and discovers that shes already been deported. (Thanks, Starkey!) However, Olga didnt leave her friend empty-handed: An envelope containing a flash-drive labeled P.P. Neither can I, Diane. But then Ruth shows up at the firm with evidence that its fake....
The old Diane Lockhart returns in ‘Day 471’ What an episode! As a former U.S. attorney, she’s not too pleased with these shady clients. This offer obviously causes quite a stir among the partners. Credit: Patrick Harbron/CBS And that’s when things take a turn. Adrian heads to the elevator. It takes the receptionist a moment to understand what Adrian’s saying when he tells her he’s shot. Elizabeth Fisher/CBS It’s like this world refuses to let the false sense of order be disturbed....
Now in “Day 478” we got Diane learning hapkido, which was a truly amazing sight. Somehow Baranski maintains her regal poise, even while practicing throws and footwork (see the photo above). But as always, these delights weren’t the only thingThe Good Fighthad to offer. Credit: Elizabeth Fisher/CBS Ron was oblivious to her discomfort. Ron lost his job because of the site and has had trouble finding a new one because it....
Because Day 485 definitely feels like one, but in the best way possible. And by the end of it, Reddick Boseman & Lockhart has itself a new enemy. (I loved the way Judge Morris dressed down Patrick in court after he initially refused to identify himself. Credit: Elizabeth Fisher/CBS She was one of my favorite judges onThe Good Wife, and Im glad she was back here.) Thankfully, Jays sister has it at the ready, but Marissa realizes something: Its fake....
No, Im not making this up. He was talking about Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard and Dianetics. Again, Im not kidding. Credit: Elizabeth Fisher/CBS Honestly, I dont even know what to make of this truly surprising turn. Spoiler alert: Shes lying. Eventually, it comes out that Chumhum is developing a customized version of its search for China. By customized, I mean that this program allows China to censor content. Again, Im not kidding....
The Good Fighthas come a long way from its first season. As far as I can remember, no one actually said the good fight in season 2. Its probably the best moment of the episode, which deals with the characters gradual moral corruption. Credit: Patrick Harbron/CBS So, their goal transforms into taking down the farm because thats something tangible. Interestingly enough, a literal storm erupts right after they settle on this idea....
