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.
