March Fifteenth 2015’s Episode

Today’s episode is brought to you by no delay. You may not know this about me, but I am an Illinois citizen. So I may point out stuff this show does wrong about Illinois. I’ll also post if they get stuff right too. I get annoyed that they mix reality and fiction on this show, but I like this show a lot so I won’t complain about it that often.

We begin with some weird things happening with a computer. Not really sure what’s happening there, but I probably will pretty soon. I am keeping this episode for my mother to see as she hasn’t yet watched it. I really hope that she can get caught up on a bunch of stuff so we’ll see what happens.

The first act brings us a faulty gun that injured someone. The gun was made by a 3D printer and the manufacturer who designed the gun is being sued. Alicia’s campaign has yet another problem regarding her opponent this time. Questions regarding who should actually be sued are part of the trial. There are problems with Louis Canning as well.

The second act explains that the person who printed the gun made some design tweaks to it that may have contributed to the failure that happened to it. Eli is once again upset over probably nothing. He does that a lot. I’m not sure why. I guess it is just his character.

The third act has a test of a replica of the gun that caused the problems it did. It is believed by a certain man that the printer was actually at fault and they should be suing the designer of that instead. This leads him to getting subpoenaed by Diane.

The fourth act doesn’t seem to explain much about the lawsuit. Kalinda thinks that the temperature at which one does 3D printing might affect things about it. Such a strange episode. Alicia doesn’t know how best to handle the situations regarding her campaign and what she does infuriates Eli.

The fifth act has the conclusion of the lawsuit. They decide to drop it for a settlement. Rumors that Alicia is supporting Hamas are bad, but that seems to be well resolved. It was hard to make sense of the subplot with Louis Canning. Alicia and her campaign manager finally hook up.


On the next Good Wife, Alicia thinks that her husband might be sabotaging her campaign. Will she actually win the race for state’s attorney? I don’t know what the writers have in store, but I can’t wait to find out. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.

March Eighth 2015’s Episode

Today’s episode is brought to you by no delay. Don’t expect delays to be over for the season, but they might be. www.adamdeckersurvivor.blogspot.com is another sponsor of this particular post of mine because I am promoting my other blogs in certain blogs of mine. Sorry if posts in this blog are sporadic and come much later than when the episode airs. I just know that I won’t be updating this blog if I updated any other blog of mine on the same date. I’m trying to tie this in with other blogs of mine, but we’ll see if that ends up happening or not.

The first act brings us many problems. There’s a recap to remind us of the problems with Michael J Fox’s character on the show. Alicia is spending a lot of time in her mind wondering about various things. She’s wondering about her candidacy and the case at hand. As usual and expected, it is hard to follow and understand.

The second act has even more confusion. Louis Canning (Michael J Fox’s character) has a big enough trial against Alicia that she isn’t focused on one thing at once. Most of the episode is her simply imagining certain situations that could unfold. And she likes to lie about her possible cold. She also thinks about sex a lot for some odd reason.

The third act has more of Alicia’s sexual fantasies with her campaign manager. I guess that he’s supposed to be the new Will or something like that. But wouldn’t that be a conflict of interest? How many problems can one get into on this show and have no repercussions whatsoever? Peter’s voter fraud has yet to come back to haunt him. They completely ignored that Kalinda killed her husband. How can you kill someone and never hear anything about it ever again? Anyways, I should have taken shots every time Alicia told someone something along the lines of “my voice isn’t as bad as you think that it is.” How can it just be laryngitis? That sounds pretty bad. It’s like all those Grimm episodes where I should have taken shots when a Wesson told Nick that he got his powers back. (Sorry if that’s a spoiler to any Grimm fans.) Alicia also gets confused by a text that Grace gets that shows up on Alicia’s phone. I too have gotten group texts on my mere flip phone. Anyways, Alicia thinks a lot about Will and Louis Canning is possibly in the hospital.

Anyways, if I’m not rambling too much, I need to get back to the show to talk about its fourth act. One of the things that I don’t like about this show is how they handle addressing religion like Christianity. You never seem to expect much from mainstream Hollywood and their ways. The Book of Daniel, for instance, was something that they thought they were getting right, but it ending up bombing pretty bad and for very good reason. (Of course, I’ve never actually seen that show to know if it really is as bad as some people say. Sometimes, I find out for myself about these things. Other times, I just take people’s words for it. One of the things I remember being curious about was the monologue that Martin Lawrence did that got him banned from SNL. When I googled it, the first link I found had the transcript of it. To me, it didn’t seem bad enough to get him banned or even bad at all.) Well, if I’m not going off into strange tangents about something that I shouldn’t be taking too serious, it turns out that Louis Canning really is in the hospital. A lot of this episode is pretty funny actually.

The fifth act seems to resolve stuff for this episode. Alicia has wondered about how best to handle an upcoming interview of hers. Most of this episode is stuff in her head. I think about a lot of different things too. Maybe my thoughts aren’t as strange and maybe they are. Although, for many reasons, I wouldn’t tell you what most of those thoughts are.


On the next Good Wife episode, it will seem to focus mostly on Alicia’s race for state’s attorney and her romantic subplot. Not sure what else to say so this is Adam Decker, signing off of another blog post of mine. Hope that you liked it.
