Should I watch this?


After reading all of the negative posts I'm not sure I want to even start watching this series. At this time I don't need a depressing series. Life these days is depressing enough. . .. if you know what I mean. I also have a season of Veep to watch, so maybe I'll stick with that.

Anything positive to say about The Good Wife to get me to watch it? Help!

Well I have just started watching it from the very beginning. I'm on episode five of season one as I type this. And I must say the positive is Josh Charles.

Not only is he absolutely friggin gorgeous, he's also a fantastically magnificent actor to boot,

Plus Julianna Margulies is wonderful and captivating.

The guest stars are positive too.

The first two eps made me shed a tear or two.

Also Christine Baranski is a brilliantly gifted dramatic actress (and comedic as seen in TBBT)

Then there's that slap!

I believe that you should watch this thrilling drama series.

Yes it's serious. Yes it's not very funny. Yes it may be depressing in places.

I have not watched Veep, which I believe is a comedy, no?

So I cannot rate, or slate, this series.

Finally there is the completely and utterly devastating season five moment that I won't spoil.
