Watching it again and it just loses its magic after Will dies. Plus they keep trotting out numerous men interests who are far too young for Alicia. And her botox gets worse as time goes on.

I need to watch something else now I think

Will dies???

Yanbu. Absolutely yanbu.

If you can get it, Big Little Lies is excellent, of only one series.

IncidentalAnarchist · 22/10/2017 13:51

Shock Shock thanks for the spoiler, man!

IJoinedJustToPostThis · 22/10/2017 13:51

*if

Proof read fail

Piffpaffpoff · 22/10/2017 13:51

I’m only kidding, I knew that. Hell of a spoiler to put in a title though😂

TheStoic · 22/10/2017 13:51

Watch the spin-off, The Good Fight.

No Alicia, but she was always the least interesting character by far.

Dons1975 · 22/10/2017 13:52

Oh man I would get the title
Of this changed and saying spoilers!!! I’m still fuming someone told me he died before I got to that episode

PavlovianLunge · 22/10/2017 13:52

Thanks for the spoiler. Thanks a lot. Hmm

AssignedPerfectAtBirth · 22/10/2017 13:53

Oops sorry. Didn't think about a spoiler.

It got on my nerves that every single man who came into the show afterwards ended up sleeping with her/wanting to sleep with her.

Haven't seen The Good Fight - is Elspeth in it?

Hollyhop17 · 22/10/2017 13:55

Who is in the spin off?! I agree, Will was one of the best characters, I was gutted about it!

TheStoic · 22/10/2017 13:55

is Elspeth in it?

Yes, and she’s fabulous.

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 22/10/2017 13:56

Can you chnage the title?!

LurkingQuietly · 22/10/2017 13:56

Spoiler? Really? It was YEARS ago!

MagentaRocks · 22/10/2017 13:57

Have you reported your post to get the spoiler taken out of the title? Can’t believe you didn’t think of it being a spoiler

MagentaRocks · 22/10/2017 13:57

Not everyone has watched it.

Littlecaf · 22/10/2017 13:57

Agree. Massive jump the shark. I cried. I love Josh what's his face anyway after Dead Poets Society. My current day dream.... Wink

Spoiler below................

Although recently rewatched it and I liked the later relationship between Alicia and Jason which felt more real than her and Finn.

TheFallenMadonna · 22/10/2017 13:58

I think the spoiler alert shelf life on this one has expired. Like Will...

MyDobbygotgivenasock · 22/10/2017 13:58

Spoilers? It started in 2009! It finished last year. How long could you possibly want? Confused

MsFortunaMajor · 22/10/2017 13:59

It happened years ago. The series has finished. It is not a spoiler.

Littlecaf · 22/10/2017 13:59

Where can I see the Good Fight? Not on Netflix yet and I've missed it on Ch4 catch up? I watched the first one but was too depressed by Trump to continue.

GlitterMagicPompom · 22/10/2017 14:00

Agreed. The magic just goes. And I liked Alicia less afterwards. She became a bit hard and solitaire. What a transformation from the first episode of season one!! It doesn't help with the naff storylines for Kalinda either.

PuppyMonkey · 22/10/2017 14:01

Ooh fantastic - love Elspeth.

VodkaPenne · 22/10/2017 14:04

If this had been 3 months ago, I’d have been gutted you gave that away!

Not everyone watches stuff live. I only started it this year on Netflix.

I am so glad nobody told me about Will before that episode.

PuppyMonkey · 22/10/2017 14:07

I must admit, I only finished the Good Wife this year so spoiler protocol still applies imho.
