October Fourth 2015’s Episode

I’ll tell you when the important part of this blog begins in the event that this blog post rambles for far too much. CBS airs sports right before primetime is to start on Sundays at 6 Central. If the sports game doesn’t end before 6, then there will be a delay before the programming starts. When I started a previous blog about a different show (Madam Secretary) that airs right before this show, I thought to myself that there would be certain criteria that could be met that would cause me to create a blog about this show. That same criteria applies to possibly creating a blog about CSI: Cyber, since it now airs after this show.

Why would I do that? Well, sometimes the sports delays are weird and different games air on different CBS affiliates. That could cause either two different time delays or no time delay for one affiliate while a different affiliate does air on delay. I can only speak for two different affiliates here and know that if one of them isn’t on delay, I can watch shows as I normally do. There are also cases where the delay is so long that the show that airs at 9 is preempted entirely as it would start at an airtime of over an hour later than it should air at. If either of these situations are met, when the show airs normally on both of my affiliates, I will start a new blog about that show. In fact, I’d probably do one about the whole CSI franchise and wind up collecting the DVDs of other shows that have ended to blog about them at some point. I’d also have to get Without a Trace on DVD, but none of the other shows connected with CSI as I have either not seen them or not cared for them. I’ll also make sure to catch up this blog and my blog about Madam Secretary to more current episodes so that it can be more linked with these shows.

You know, my very first blog contained an introduction to the blog itself. Every blog I created afterwards has just jumped right into the show after the most recent episode where I started the blog at. My Survivor blog started after an episode I thought was so great, I had to do a blog about Survivor. It has become my most predominate blog and I normally update it every Wednesday (although the time I post it changes at times) or at least once a week even when Survivor isn’t on the air. Meanwhile, my OCD helped create a blog about Madam Secretary and this blog too. Those also started without an introduction. Unfortunately, I do not update this blog as much as I should. I mean, I posted the episode that aired on Easter in June and I still have the rest of the most recent season to post about before I start with this one.

I had a dream where I created or otherwise had a blog about the TV show Bob’s Burgers. I don’t know if I’ll create that blog or not. I might. I might not. At first, only having two blogs made sense. In fact, I’ll still have only one blog were it not for what I considered to be one of the greatest Survivor episodes of all time. Then, I had a dream where I had a Madam Secretary blog, so I added one of those. After that show aired at an hour long delay (which made it air during the timeslot of this show), I created this blog once it aired at a normal time again.

Now I have a habit of rambling in my blog posts. I’m sure that you know that. One of the habits that I’ve had in a different blog was that I would post what movies that I was watching as I tried to watch a specific one. An OCD habit of mine has me having a list of movies to watch (currently two in this case) and I roll for one of the choices. There’s six choices on each list, where the alphabetically first choice is number 1 and there are no repeating movies of the same letter on a single list. Now I won’t tell you about all the choices on the list. For my birthday over the summer, an aunt and uncle of mine, gave me various movies for my birthday. I have since watch am hour long Nature (PBS) special and the movie Easy A. I have since added A Time to Kill to a list. I have decided that I will update you on what of their movies I will add to the list and watch.

Now, I’ve added the movie Night at the Museum to the list. After I watch it, it will remain on the list so I can watch the two commentaries that go along with it. I have seen the movie once so far. I didn’t release how much its first sequel was better than it was at first. Also, I’ve added Bend it like Beckham to the list as well. I end up watching a Time to Kill and replaced it on the list. Then I added Catch Me if You Can to the list. I watched the first of two commentaries for Night at the Museum.

I added Liar Liar to the list and ended up watching it shortly thereafter. It stays on the list so I can listen to one of the commentaries later. I listen to the other commentary for Night at the Museum and replace it with The Princess Bride. Remember that I’m only telling you about the movies that my aunt and uncle gave me and not any others that I’m watching. I’ll tell you when I’m done with all of them. I add the movie Raising Arizona to the list. I watched The Princess Bride and replaced it with Northanger Abbey. I add the movie Absolute Power to the list. I watched Raising Arizona and replaced it with Rush Hour. Those are all the updates regarding movies for this blog post. It looks like shows are running on time on CBS tonight so I’ll get to the point of this blog post.

THE IMPORTANT PART OF THIS BLOG POST BEGINS NOW! Today’s episode is brought to you by no delay. We begin with police chasing a man. Well, there are many police officers chasing different men. It possibly relates to a plot of this episode. Now, Alicia is unable to find work since the scandal of her possibly rigging an election (which we know is not true as others rigged the election for someone else) and is mostly hated by the general public nowadays. She was trying to work as a bar attorney, but that didn’t end up happening. We learn that she declined partnering with Louis Canning, which seems like a wise idea, although it could have helped him become a cast member of this show, something that isn’t going to happen since they made some other unknown person a cast member. She also gets a client regarding a lack of a will with her mother. Eli thinks that there’s a perceived injustice done to him by Peter so he turns against him.

Act two has more of Alicia’s struggles being a bar attorney for the day. What is that anyways? We learn more of this case where she is facing off against Diane. Doesn’t that happen a bit too often? They were friends then enemies then friends again then enemies again. Were they always just frenemies? Peter also explains why he needs a new campaign manager.

Act three makes me think that it is bond attorney and not bar attorney. Bond attorney makes more sense, although I’m not as familiar with it as I’d want to be. Obviously, I wouldn’t be as confused about these things if there were more explanation with them. Now Eli wants to work with Alicia and that will hopefully get him out of the slump that he is in this episode. A note in a roomba vacuum cleaner has the word Selena who is the housekeeper at the place where the dead person’s belongings are. This episode will probably inspire me to once again make a will. Something like that does need updated every once in a while. I haven’t even made one this year yet.

Act four has Alicia held up at bond court. The black woman whose name I can’t remember helps Alicia with her case regarding the inheritance. It’s possible that she’s the new cast member. An Illinois law prevents the housekeeper from getting the painting so it goes to her daughter, I’m guessing.

Act five gives us a quick recap on everything. There’s not much for me to say about it. We might see more of the black lawyer from this episode, but I’m not sure yet if we will. Louis Canning was somehow responsible for the case in this episode winding up in Alicia’s hands. She might work with him again in the future. We’ll see if that happens or not.

On the next Good Wife, the promo for the episode is vague as usual. We’ll see more of Mamier Gummer by the looks of it. I hope that I spelt her name right. We’ll see more of Margo Martindale’s character by the looks of it. And I’m not sure what else there is to say. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
