With every Fall comes a season of television and often a slew of new shows.  Often times these new shows aren't around very long.  Luckily for me, The Good Wife seems to have some staying power!  I think its the best show of the season!Alicia Florrick, played by Julianna Margulies, is the wife of disgraced State's attorney, Peter Florrick (played my Chris Noth).  With her husband in prison, she goes to back to work as an attorney, juggles raising her two teenagers, and begins to realize there is more to her husbands case than she may have originally known.  Alicia Florrick has to be the best female character on TV today!  She is one classy lady!  She has an ability to handle each and every obstacle with a cool calm that is rare given her circumstances.  I'm not sure many women would have her poise. 

I'm eager to see where the storyline goes and to see more of Alicia Florrick!  I get so excited on Wednesdays, because I know the show has taped Tuesday night and is waiting for me on my DVR!  Check it out: Tuesdays at 10:00pm on CBS. 

I really like this show (and was surprised that I did so much).  I feel it's really well done with story arcs and with character development.  I couldn't pay attention last Tuesday, though because I was so distracted by the Lane Kiffin/Tennessee football incident.  So, I'll definitely have to re-watch that one. 

I just saw this show last week and loved it.  I was so impressed with Alicia's character, I agree, her poise and grace and intelligence were incredible.  I loved her style as well.  What a classy lady.  I will watch this show for certain. 

The Good Wife started here in Australia last week so we've only seen one episode so far.  I usually give a new show 2 episodes to wow me because I never think a first episode is the best a show can be.  But I really liked this one.  I'll definitely keep watching :)
