There will be another
doubleheader for this episode. That basically means that I will isolate the
episode to VHS (probably, at least) and watch the end of it (well, anything
that airs from 9 Central afterwards) before I see the whole episode on VHS.
It’s weird that I do that, isn’t it? I see a lot of TV shows out of order. I’m
so much of a junkie that there are times when I’m recording a show while
recording a different show while watching a third show. And with Sundays, it
depends on what is on and what comes in. I just hope that everything works out
with the recordings or that I can watch things live. I’ll make sure to see this
episode and blog about it somehow.
You might be wondering about
the movies I was watching. Well, I have added both Ghost Town and The Pelican
Brief to the list. I have also watched Northanger Abbey. What a weird and
worthless movie that was. I’ll probably have to look up the synopsis of it
online to actually understand it.
Last week’s episode will be
blogged about later. It was isolated to VHS. This episode aired at an even
longer delay, but it aired at a nice enough one that I could record this
episode on my laptop. Now I thought that the delay of this would preempt the
new CSI: Cyber, but it didn’t. So I won’t be creating a blog about it just yet.
I might do that in the future, if that happens at all.
Today’s episode is brought to
you by a 58 minute delay. We begin with Alicia possibly getting a client in
court. We then get to her going back to bond court. It is just me, or is this
judge a total asshole? He seems like one to me. Anyways, she meets with a
person accused of selling drugs, but he wasn’t actually seeing illegal drugs.
Act two has Eli in a small
office for the moment. As I have not currently seen the second episode of this
season, I don’t know for sure if he’s on good terms with Peter again or not.
Things being out of order can be confusing. Actually, I have seen some of that
episode, but not all of it yet. Alicia’s two different tactics to help her
client both fail. We then find out that he might not be all that he says he is.
Act three has Alicia and her
mother on a live cooking show that, as usual, doesn’t go well. Things never
tend to go well for Alicia. Her client might actually be an FBI informant. He
doesn’t want a new lawyer or he will tell the judge about Alicia’s plan to
perjure himself. The new cast member, whose name I can’t remember, might be
evil in some way, but we can’t tell how just yet.
Act four is when we find out
why the FBI informant is undercover and on trial. He is part of a sting
operation against the judge. They are trying to get him to accept a bribe to
dismiss the case. Alicia informs Eli of the situation. The advice that Alicia
gave to the old man may turn badly against her (as usual) as he is planning on
suing them, from what we can tell.
Act five is the moment of
truth when it comes to the judge’s case. At first it seems as if he didn’t
accept the bribe. But, it turns out that Eli tipped him off about it. So is Eli
evil? I always thought that he might possible be. This is strange. The rift
between Alicia and the new cast member is resolved for the moment. I don’t know
what to make of the old guy storyline. Maybe they’ll be more of that later with
his romance with Peter’s mother.
On the next Good Wife, we have
more problems with the judge and a new client of Alicia’s is in trouble too. So
what will happen? Will there be another sports delay? I hope that there’s at
least not another doubleheader for a while. Although, I do hope that I can get
an episode ahead on Madam Secretary so that these blogs can be in sync, if only
for a moment at least. It’s possible that they’ll never be in sync again. For
now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
