November First 2015’s Episode

Will I create a blog about the CSI franchise? Will I do one about just CSI: Cyber? Will I do one about Bob’s Burgers instead? Will I have to use the grammatically incorrect Bobs Burgers in order to create that blog? I don’t even watch that show on a regular basis as much as I would like to. But I would change that if I do create the blog. Plus, I don’t always have to use well grammar. My computer’s spell check certainly doesn’t know grammar as good as it should. Anyways, if I do create another blog, which I’m not sure I would, it would be about either CSI: Cyber or Bob’s Burgers.

You probably don’t care about a movie update, but I’ll tell you about it anyways. I was only able to watch one movie, that being Ghost Town. It will remain on my list as it also comes with commentary. Now I’m not sure what else there is to mention about that for now.

A game on one of my CBS affiliates has brought a delay to it. Meanwhile, there was no delay on my other CBS affiliate, so I will be creating a blog about CSI: Cyber after all. I’ll be sure to post the link of mine in a future blog post. Meanwhile, I suggest that you search for this blog now as it might already exist by the time you are reading this.

Today’s episode is brought to you by either 17 minute or no delay. Welcome to one of my few live blog posts where this episode was not recorded. Anyways, we begin with a scary phone call brought in by a new client of Alicia’s. Since I’m not interested in Blood and Oil, with FOX shows being on reruns and one of my CBS affiliates is not on delay (as evidenced by what I stated out). Anyways, the client thinks that a person is harassing her on the phone saying that she needs to pay loans that she’s already paid. I’m not entirely sure of what is happening next. It turns out that she was tricked into paying the real amount to a fake company. Diane thinks that Cary has too many ageist comments in regards to the old man that we see recurringly. Eli is taking joy in problems that Ruth is apparently causing. So we have a crazy, exciting start to the story as usual.

Act two is when we see two scenes at once. Alicia’s side is working on the case with their client and they are trying to prove that she’s not getting that good an education. Meanwhile, Diane and Cary try to prove whether or not there was an ageism problem at their firm. Does Eli have a kid? It looks like Alicia’s old campaign manager is now the private investigator at their firm. Can he be like Kalinda?

Act three has the man who I really need to know his name telling Alicia about important information to the case. I honestly don’t know what to make of the ageism case. Alicia’s case starts to unravel because their client wasn’t going to all her classes or paying for books. But, the student reveals that her whole study group was in a bad position. Meanwhile, Alicia officially parts ways with Eli, which marks the first time that he is fired. Meanwhile, the case is revealed to have no class action ability, but they can do a death strike which Eli suggests after he is fired, probably to help with his chances with Alicia.

Act four is when we get to the weird cotton ball scene from the promos. I realize why the promos were so lame for this episode. How could they have summed any of this up? Cary still finds most of this to be ridiculous. Since when did he see things from the way of the audience? Eli was actually trying to ruin Peter’s campaign by putting him in a catch 22 situation. I can’t tell what’s happening with the PI for sure, but he could be doing rash things like Kalinda would do. In fact, he’s probably more like Kalinda now than they would want him to be. Eli decides to stay on the campaign. Can one really decide that they are not fired? I don’t think that firing works like that.

Act five has the possible end of the case. Will there be more later? They didn’t address the previous case in this episode, so it’s hard to tell for sure. What am I supposed to think? It’s hard to tell. I guess that last segment wasn’t that good.


On the next Good Wife, Eli is potentially the cause of certain doom. What else is new? He is constantly the source of various problems on the show as are many characters. I doubt that future promos would be helpful with it, although I could be wrong about it. I’ll see you next time, whenever that is. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.

January Tenth 2016’s Episode

Sorry if things are unusual with this blog all the time. Normally a blog is updated more regularly than one like this is. And now I'm going out of order. I know that this show is officially ending in May. I promise that sometime after the last episode airs, I'll get caught up on posts by adding the rest of the episodes in some order that may only be logical to me. If you read other blogs of mine, then this might make sense. Or maybe not. Most of the blogs that I write are locked in after a certain point and I no longer edit them even when I probably logically should. But the point is, here is the first episode of the year. I will publish the other episodes before it in the future. Hopefully I won't get into too much of a problem with the rest of these episodes getting watched and recorded. There will be at least one post after the one on the series finale, but we'll see whether or not I continue the blog once the show ends. How would I continue it? Well, you'll have to wait and see for that potential. Until then, you will see largely unedited posts at least once a month, but I will get caught up with more posts in the future. For now, here's your regularly scheduled blog post:

Now that the next year has started, you might be wondering about the movies from my aunt and uncle that I’m watching. You might also wonder if I finished watching all of the Christmas movies that I planned to watch. That would affect my plans going into the New Year. Well, I was able to finish watching them early. I then watched Absolute Power and replaced it with the Bourne series. Now, they only actually gave me one of these movies, but I have the rest on DVD so I will watch the whole series again. Plus, I might add another list of movies, even if I’m only telling you about certain ones on the list anyways. There’s a lot for me to potentially add, but I won’t add them all as that would be far too many things to add at once.

I ended up adding a third movie list and the movies that my aunt and uncle gave me that have been put on that list are Indiana Jones (which was just one movie that they gave me, but the whole movie series is on the list now) and Clueless. There’s a lot of movies that I want to add to different lists, but I won’t add most of them, as I’m trying to watch these other movies. I can add more once I finish watching them all (or at least added all of them to the lists of mine), but there’s also summertime and other reasons why I could add these movies to future lists.

The Golden Globes are on tonight making me wonder how shows might be affected. Last year, shows on CBS aired at a planned hour long delay. That is what created this blog about The Good Wife, even though the first post didn’t happen until March when a new episode aired with no delay. At this point, I might have to wait that long (the end of football season) to create that blog about CSI: Cyber. I’m getting tired of all these delays which I think happened in at least one of my regions every week since this show started. I really hate football. I will only watch the shows after the Super Bowl, but I never watch the game itself. Besides, my team isn’t in it anymore anyways.

I was able to watch a movie and I added The Fugitive to the list. I should add Finding Nemo at some point as they gave me a DVD copy of it and it has a sequel coming out this year. I also watched one of the Bourne movies.

You know, in an alternate world, this might be the first episode of The Good Wife that I’d be blogging about. I still don’t know why they ending up putting it on an hour delay this time last year. Even though the first post was on a March episode, this is around my one year anniversary of the start of this blog. Yay for me!

Today’s episode is brought to you by no delay. We begin where last week’s episode left off: Eli is telling Alicia of the message from Will that he deleted. I don’t know why he is doing this. He has nothing to gain by doing this. This is a bad idea, him telling her about this. She would probably not even know about this if he didn’t tell her and all this will do is make her mad. Of course, she does get mad and wrecks plates around him. What did I say would happen? Why would he do this so close to her husband’s campaign in Iowa? Jason comes and talks to her some.

We finally see more of Zach. I know that he has been credited this whole time, but this is the first time I remember actually seeing him this season. Why did it take so long to get back to him? What was the actor busy with? Why is he still part of the cast? They could put Ruth’s character in the cast since she’s actually important. Alicia being mad at Eli is probably what leads her to supporting whatever path Ruth wants to take since she knows that Eli and Ruth don’t get along and want opposite things. Anyways, the group is campaigning in Iowa trying to go to all Iowa counties. The fact that Zach complains about Iowa proves that he doesn’t explore the rest of Illinois that much. More of it is farm land than anything else. I should know. I’m from Illinois. There is a prenup going on and other stuff that will probably be more important later.

Act two reveals that Howard wants to keep all of his money before going into his marriage. I still haven’t caught up to that episode on VHS yet, but I will in the future. Lockhart Argos is affected by a racial discrimination case from the person that the originally didn’t hire before they did. Alicia complains about Iowa and this is caught on camera leaving people offended at the next county he is going to. How did they all learn of it this quickly? They seek to do damage control and are able to come up with a story behind her complaint.

They complete the full Grassley. Who is Grassley? If what he did was important, why was he never president? Speaking of which, the show incorrectly stated earlier that Rick Santorum lost the state of Iowa in the primary. But he didn’t. We thought he did at first. I’m not sure why they don’t remember the fact that he actually did win the Iowa primary. Also, Peter is tired of the type of burgers that he’s always eating and is caught on camera spitting one out. Anyone think that they not so casually recycled footage of his bus entering these Iowan towns? It looked like the same turn in the same town slightly altered. Plus, some footage made it seem like the bus was on the wrong side of the road.

Act three has people at a voting precinct working with the Iowa caucuses. I am glad that my state doesn’t do a caucus. I like the voting system that we do have: paper ballads. Lucca is working more with the case of the prenup between Peter’s mother and Howard. I never understand nor care about whatever is happening with Diane’s firm. I do wonder how they got the right Democrats in the race at this point. Hilary Clinton, Martin O’Malley, and Bernie Sanders are all in this episode with Peter Florrick as another candidate. They can do that, but they can’t remember which Republican won the last Iowa caucus. Anyways, somehow thirty becomes twenty-nine as they look to find enough voters to stay in the race. One of the planned voters left when they have the bare minimum, thus not having enough when people count them for votes.

Act four reveals what happens to the one voter: she joined the Hilary Clinton supports. The one crazy guy who was at a lot of rallies shows up and thus a lot of people support Peter now. But, he ended up winning only four counties, a distant fourth to the other three candidates. It makes me wonder if he will be a write in candidate anywhere in real life. He might. I’ve never understood why people would vote for people that don’t exist. Now I heard someone mention that they don’t actually count write-in candidates because Mickey Mouse would have won a lot of times. I don’t buy that. A real candidate is always going to get more votes. Of course, from what I’ve heard, only the official write in candidates would get votes on those ballads.

Act five has the rest of the episode with some of the stuff wrapped up. As usual, there are things that aren’t wrapped up that we will probably never hear about again anyways. Jackie, the name of Peter’s mother, is forgoing the prenup since Peter lost the race in a way. Am I the only one who wonders why the primaries aren’t held in every state at once? That would make more sense to me. But then again, so many different ways of voting happens in this country that doesn’t make sense. Remember the Electoral College? I still celebrate Opposite Day every December 12th as it is the anniversary of the Supreme Court Decision Bush versus Gore. I still don’t know why people hate Gore. Are you still somehow unconvinced of Climate Change? Regardless, Eli thinks that Alicia should have been the one running for president as people want her instead of Peter.


On the next Good Wife, Eli is fired by Ruth and Alicia is still mad at him. What am I supposed to make of that promo? I’m not sure. It’s also interesting that this show features real world politics so much even though it is not in the real world. It’s always bothered me that they do that. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.

October Twenty-Fifth 2015’s Episode

I’m still not sure where or even if I’ll do a blog about CSI: Cyber. It’s possible that the CSI franchise will soon become a thing of the past. I mean, even shows that were linked to CSI or a spin-off of it have ended. Without a Trace, Cold Case, as well as Two and a Half Men are all over. The original is over after weirdly coming back for just two new episodes. The only spin-off that remains is CSI: Cyber and the ratings are doing terrible. I doubt that another network would be interested in making new episodes of it. The way things are going now, that’s the only way that it gets a third season. I will let you know if I ever create a blog about it or if I don’t. Any show that I like that airs after this show has the potential for me to create a blog about, although I’m not sure if I ever will. Certain criteria has to be met. I’ll be sure to share the link of a new blog if I ever create one.

With the movies from my aunt and uncle, I was able to watch Bend it Like Beckham. That will remain on my list so I can watch it again with commentary. There are pretty much no other changes to the list right now. Should I recap what is on it? I might do that some other time. No late sports games on CBS means that today’s episode will air on time.

Today’s episode is brought to you by no delay. We begin with people in bond court. Is the bond court judge part of the cast now? I find it hard to tell. Also, if they are adding new cast members, why not add Michael J Fox? Is there a reason that he can’t be in the cast? Anyways, the four lawyers are competing in a contest of sorts to see who gets the most pounds with their clients. Why is it more pounds equal more points? You’d think that you’d want less points in this game to win. Louis Canning is taking on Diane on a case that involves assisted suicide, I think. One of the cases is switched to Alicia from a male attorney and she seeks to prove this woman’s innocence.

Act two has Eli learning that people want Peter to be against a physician assisted suicide bill. Cary tells Alicia that this could be her way back in the firm with him and Diane, but Alicia doesn’t want to do this. Meanwhile, her case is doing pretty poorly against the judge as she struggles to defend her client.

Act three brings us more of the case that Alicia is working on. It is believed that the store in question is racial profiling people and that’s why there are black people in trouble against the law. Alicia’s former lover/campaign manager helps her with some of the case. I’m not sure what to make of Ruth at the moment. She seems vindictive in a nice way. More people want Alicia as a lawyer.

Act four has arguments between Ruth and Peter. She thinks that Eli is sending family members of Peter to the store to sabotage the bill that’s going on. Alicia talks to whatshisname about him hitting a judge. They also find out that the mother stole the sweater in question when they get security footage of the store. The client decides to change her plea to avoid sending her mother to jail.

Act five seems to be a set-up for future episodes. As usual, there’s an ongoing storyline ongoing. I’m not sure what the end result of the cases are, if there is an end result just yet. Things don’t look hopeful for the death case that Diane is working on as the dead person rejected the help she might have used if she wanted it which she didn’t. Alicia will be working with that one bond lawyer by the looks of it. Also, it’s October. You shouldn’t be airing a Christmas commercial, Best Buy. You have earned my annual boycott because of this and I will not be shopping at your store until next year.


On the next Good Wife, the promo is excessively weird. What am I supposed to make from it? I’m not sure if I’m making much of anything from it this time. I guess that, as usual, I’ll be back whenever posting about the next episode. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.

October Eighteenth 2015’s Episode

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.

October Eleventh 2015’s Episode

I’m not entirely sure how to begin this blog post at the moment. So I’ll just ramble as usual about rambling things that I’m rambling about. Since I tend to talk about sports delays in this blog of mine, I might as well mention doubleheaders, something that happens during football season. Now during the fall part of the schedule, there are doubleheaders with football that tend to create at the very least, a 30 minute delay. This is planned in advance. You can tell by the epg on your remote. They know that there is no way of the game ending at 6 so they plan a delay. That means that if the game ends sooner than 6:30, they will air stuff to make the delay fit exactly so that people using DVR and the like will actually see their whole show as they intended to. But, if the game lasts beyond 6:30, they will have to delay the show even longer than planned. That is how shows have ending up airing in the time slot of a different show, such as this airing in what is now CSI: Cyber’s time slot.

To make a long story short, I’ve put this episode on VHS and have already seen everything that aired from it from 9 onward. Depending on if Quantico comes in and if I do create that blog about CSI: Cyber, I might not always do something like this in this blog of mine. I could move it to that other potential blog. For now, I’m keeping things like that in this blog, even if it is confusing for me. At least I will see the whole episode over time.

Today’s episode is brought to you by 33 minute delay. Act one has Alicia talking to a client in bond court that was given to her by that one new female character. He admits to doing the case, it seems. Eli and Ruth continue to butt heads. I wonder if they hired Margo Mardindale because they had cancelled her previous show. It was a CBS show so it makes sense that they would want to keep her around. Makes you glad that she didn’t bash anyone after The Millers was cancelled. Alicia’s client is crazy. I wonder how this fits in with the part of the episode I’ve already seen.

This is the episode that introduces Howard and I talk about him a lot in future episodes. Only I couldn’t remember his name a lot so don’t be surprised if I just call him that old guy. Also, Jason appears now and I thought that he had previously appeared in the show, but I guess that I was wrong about that. Don’t be surprised if you see posts in the future about how I thought he had previously worked for Alicia as a campaign manager. Doesn’t he look like that at least? Meanwhile, it turns out that the stolen photos are of the client naked and he wants to get rid of them. What a long paragraph. I’m going to split it up. In case you are confused by things that I’m writing, I change things a lot. I see things out of order sometimes and that’s why things can be confusing for me and whoever might be reading this. They are probably wondering why I didn’t post this episode sooner.

Act two has Diane and Cary talking about Howard and his problems. Also, I’m reading through what I’ve written about the rest of this episode and things will make more sense, although don’t be confused by me being confused about things in the future. Anyways, Alicia thinks that there is something wrong with the judge. Ruth is wondering about Eli’s mention of the movie It Follows. Howard is his weird, funny self. There is problems with Amanda, the PI Alicia hired. Meanwhile, the case continues as my past self starts watching and writing about the episode.

It is this point around the 9:00 mark that I start watching the episode. Eli is talking to Alicia about her election scandal. He has an idea that sounds bad to her. Of course, his crazy plan makes complete sense to himself. Is it something that she will try? Will it work? Alicia and other lawyers talk about the case from earlier that I haven’t seen just yet. But I’ll catch up. I need to remember the name of the new character. Also, Quantico isn’t coming in so I won’t be able to watch it, which actually works perfectly with my plans for today.

The next act has Alicia apologizing to the person that is probably the reason that she is not state’s attorney. She is told to vote no on the next vote. She fires a person relating to her law firm. I’ll probably understand more about that later. The case at hand related to copyright. They have to obey Maine law which doesn’t help them in the case.

The next act has the topic of child pornography brought up for some odd reason. There are some sort of stomach problems that are complicating the case. Weird. A man is strange in front of women. Diane gets mad at Cary for this, blaming him for this man showing up. Why are they showing erotic paintings on this show? And, more importantly, how do network standards allow them to air this? Maybe there’s a reason that this aired on the day of a doubleheader when they knew a tape delay would happen. Although, I don’t know yet what aired at the earlier part of this episode. I should really stop saying that as you are going to read this whole thing the way it was meant to be seen and not out of order like I’m watching it. You’ll read this after the part that aired earlier. So why am I doing this?

The next act Alicia talks to her (former?) campaign manager. She then talks to her daughter who wants to get paid. Finally, they are making the daughter look good by giving her a fun job. I didn’t like her portrayal before. They tend to not make Christians look good in this show which can be kind of offensive. It looks like the case is getting resolved in a good way. It looks like Peter’s new campaign manager might be working with his old campaign manager. Also, Alicia gets a deal or offer of some sort from this man who used to be her lover.


On the next Good Wife (which I might have already blogged about), Alicia thinks that she’s being set up. She’s also doing a cooking show with her mother. As usual, vague promo is vague- ding! For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.

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.

May Tenth 2015’s Episode

Okay, let’s do a bunch of random crap in my introduction to the blog. You may notice that this blog post regarding the season finale of the Good Wife is with the old VHS episodes. Why is that? Mother’s Day. That’s why. I missed all the other shows that week and only saw the Good Wife, not recording anything else. So I didn’t get to see the season finale of Once Upon a Time which I may have to give up due to inconvenience. The Last Man on Earth ended its season already so I didn’t have to worry about that. No 60 Minutes, Bob’s Burgers, A. D., The Simpsons, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Family Guy, American Odyssey, or Battle Creek. Speaking of Battle Creek, I will not be doing a blog about Battle Creek as the criteria I would have used to create that blog never happened. It was a good show, although not as good as I would have wanted. But now it is cancelled after a strange (but not bad) finale. But it looks like the Good Wife survives until the next season. That’s good news. Also, you will not see the font comic sans ms in this blog post as I have not seen any of the episode before I start watching it.

Today’s episode is brought to you by no delay. The first act starts confusingly with a voice message for Alicia making her think that this person was being arrested. I think that he was being kidnapped, but we don’t know for sure yet.

The second act has people finding out that Louis Canning’s wife is now working at Alicia’s firm. Peter Florick is also running for either president or vice-president. There are more things that people wonder about Alicia’s possible client. They also try to find Kalinda and she shows up.

The third act has more confusing things happening. Why does this show have to be so confusing? Alicia is trying to make sense of the situation with her client. She also doesn’t want a memoir about her to be written. There’s also a scene of her talking to Kalinda. I do wonder how they are getting rid of Kalinda exactly. I guess that she is just leaving after the strange events that are happening.

The fourth act has Louis Canning reacting to his wife apparently getting fired from Alicia’s firm. The client talks more about what happened while he was possibly illegally detained. I do wonder if some of this is a set-up for next season. I just hope that they don’t have terrible story arcs like they did this season. The race for state’s attorney made nothing good on this show. Alicia burns a letter from Kalinda in front of Lester. When Lester is here, then you know things are inconceivable.


The fifth act has more of the end of Kalinda’s story on this show. Alicia is also talking to the person who ended up replacing Will about a possible romance between the two of them. They didn’t do any romance, but Alicia seems to regret that decision. At the end of the episode, Louis Canning shows up wanting to partner with Alicia. I guess that they will end this season with the same sort of thing that they ended the last season with. I just hope that the question isn’t ignored in the next season premiere until the very end of that episode. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
