The Good Wife: CBS Show Renewed for Season Two

Published:January 17, 2010

The Good Wife season twoAfter spending many years on ER, Julianna Margulies left life as a series regular 10 years ago. She went on to guest roles on shows like The Sopranos and returned to weekly television as the star of FOX’s Canterbury’s Law. The legal drama only lasted six episodes. She tried the genre again this season on CBS and has had much better luck.

The Good Wife revolves around the wife (Margulies) of a disgraced State Attorney (Chris Noth). She returns to work to rebuild her reputation and provide for her children. The series also stars Matt Czuchry, Archie Panjabi, Graham Phillips, Makenzie Vega, Mary Beth Peil, Josh Charles, and Christine Baranski.

The series has the plum spot on the schedule following the very successful NCIS: Los Angeles. Good Wife debuted to 13.71 million viewers and a 3.1 rating in the 18-49 demographic. Those numbers slipped a bit over the following weeks but have been rising again. The most reason installment attracted 13.70 million viewers and a 3.0 rating.

To no surprise, CBS has renewed Good Wife for season two. The network hasn’t specified an episode order but it’s expected to be a full season of 22-24 installments.

What do you think? Is Good Wife worth watching? Where would you like to see it go for season two?

I really like “The Good Wife.” It’s my favorite show on TV.
However, it is constantly being canceled for other “specials.” Is
it going to continue? I can’t wait to see the next new
episode.

The Good Wife is definitely on our list of things to watch on Tuesday night, but we are becoming more and more concerned with the direction the show is going. It seems to want to approach controversial subjects mostly affirmatively, like the sexual tension between Margolis and her boss, her husband’s infidelity, her brother’s as well as her co-worker’s homosexuality, but when her husband turns to a pastor to find answers for his lifeand when their daughter befriends a christian, it becomes pratically intolerable for Margolis and her mother-in-law. They talked about it like it was a disease! It was so much so, their daughter denied that she was praying! What does this mean? I don’t like it.

I just finished watching year two of the series. Good acting,and exciting to watch. There is a lot of suspense, romance and anticipation. Hopefully season three will be as exciting as the first two.
