April Twenty-Fourth 2016’s Episode

There might be rumors that this show is about trying to help Hilary Clinton get elected president. I don’t take those thoughts seriously. There are many reasons why this isn’t the case. One could say it could be inspired by things like that at best, which is what the creators of this show admit themselves that it was inspired by, in the beginning at least, various sex scandals and other scandals of politicians that have their wives standing next to them in support of this and the fact that their wives still have some sort of story all by themselves that it worth telling.

Yikes. That sentence in the previous paragraph turned into the type of monstrosity the likes of which you’d see in the Scarlet Letter book, which I do not recommend that anyone read, even if your English teacher wants you to. Your English teacher is crazy. I know that. You should know that. Don’t even try to say otherwise as English teachers are always crazy regardless of who they are. It is either a talk show host application or one for an English teacher that has a simple two question survey. 1- Are you crazy? Answer: yes. 2- When can you start? I seemed to have lost the focus of what I was saying. The point is this: if this were about helping Hilary Clinton get elected, then why would it premiere in 2009 when it’s highly unlikely that she would run for office until this year (2016)?

There wasn’t much progress in terms of the movies that I’m watching. Of course, there was movie watching being done, but that didn’t mean that it would be part of their former movies. I have basically added The Best Years of Our Lives to the list and that’s all the changes that have been made thus far. Plus, I’m running out of time to update you about this.

Today’s episode is brought to you by no delay. We begin with the conversation that Jason and Alicia were having last time. Alicia is concerned that she’s always being interrupted by something else and, of course, her daughter is knocking on the door wanting to talk. It turns out that funeral flowers were sent instead of the planned wedding flowers. But Mrs. Florick (I forget her first name, but I’m not talking about Alicia) actually likes them. Jason has a deed to land on Mars which he gives to Alicia. That seems weird to me. Eli doesn’t want Jason working on Peter’s case. Zach comes back with a surprise as it turns out that he is getting married. That's a lot in just the first act.

Act two has more discussion regarding Zach as it turns out that he wants to drop out of college to spend a year in France with his planned wife Hannah. His parents naturally object to a lot of his plans. He has always been more of a rowdy one. Alicia isn’t sure that she can actually take Jason seriously anymore due to the whole deed for land on Mars thing. Grace learns through Alicia’s mother about Alicia and Peter planning on getting divorced so Alicia talks to both Grace and Zach about this.

Act three doesn’t seem to have all that much to it. We see that Jason’s Mars thing was more of him saying that he would want Alicia to go away with him wherever they might want to go to. I’m not really sure what else to make about this act.

Act four has Hannah telling Alicia that she wanted Zach to be tell her about the engagement sooner. Eli learns that a woman had problems with evidence that lead potential conventions to not happen. Jason confronts the woman about this as it could help exonerate Peter, I think.

Act five makes me wonder how this was all a marriage in the end. All that really happened was a document being signed and that was it. I hope that marriages aren’t really started that way. It appears that different events are being set in motion. Peter and Alicia toast their divorce.

On the next Good Wife, it appears that things might be falling apart in some places. What will happen in the case against Peter? Can Alicia be the good wife one last time? Hasn’t she lost that term since around season 3 when she started her affair with Will? That is all for now as the series is winding down. Soon it will be over. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
