I go along with Marci that Colinda’s part is getting way out of hand. The lesbian scenes were offensive enough and now her husband and the fights and sex etc. How far down do you need to go to maintain an audience? Do you feel your show is so weak that sex in any shape is going to keep you on the air? I am sick of all the sexual stuff and thought your show might be different and have some merit to it. WRONG! I will no longer watch it nor recommend it to others as I started out… Read more »

The Good Wife is a different spin from the multitudinous lawyer tv shows over the past 20 years. I like the sub-stories going on with each of the characters while they also carry on as attorneys or in support of the related plot lines. I like that there are dynamics about the law firm’s organization and survival. Every person there is his/her own special character. The writers are very thoughtful in tying them altogether. I am a paralegal and really enjoy this more intellectual show. I think there is a disconnect however between Margulies’ character as a “wronged” wife trying… Read more »

I loved the show until Colinda Sharma became bi-sexual. The 4-22-12 show was simply disgusting. You might as well had the two women naked having sex in the street. I just turned it over and now am watching a new program. I do not understand you people and why you can’t have a top notch show without always going to the gutter. Is that your reality, because it sure isn’t mine. No wonder people like the reality shows that don’t have all the sex so obvious and distasteful. Why would you ruin a really good script like that?

First of all, it’s KALINDA Sharma. Second of all, she didn’t just “became” bi-sexual. That’s her sexuality, like any of the other characters being straight. And that scene was no more explicit than the Alicia/Will scene in the season 3 premiere. Did you object to that scene too?
