What’s This TV Show About?
Streaming on the Paramount+ subscription service, The Good Fight stars Christine Baranski, Audra McDonald, Sarah Steele, Michael Boatman, Nyambi Nyambi, Zach Grenier, Charmaine Bingwa, and Mandy Patinkin. A sequel to The Good Wife, the legal and political drama centers on Diane Lockhart (Baranski), Liz Lawrence (McDonald), and others at the Reddick, Boseman & Lockhart law firm in Chicago. In the fifth season, Diane is forced to question whether it’s appropriate for her to help run an African American law firm with Liz when the firm loses two top lawyers (Cush Jumbo and Delroy Lindo). Meanwhile, Marissa (Steele) and the firm become entangled with Hal Wackner (Patinkin), a regular Chicagoan who decides to open his own courtroom in the back of a copy shop.
The Good Fight has been renewed for a (final) sixth season which will debut on September 8, 2022. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Unless they decide to publicize viewership, it is difficult to predict whether Paramount+ will cancel or renew The Good Fight for season six. Since Paramount+ isn’t ad-supported, it can take a chance on series it believes in, but sooner or later it comes down to production costs, versus viewership numbers. This show began on CBS All Access (the predecessor to Paramount+) and, aside from the Star Trek shows, became the service’s most recognizable originals. I think it will be renewed.
