"This is the best drama series of the year", the "Los Angeles Times" made such a positive comment before the premiere of "The Good Wife". In fact, at first glance, this drama with a similar unit drama and the personal entanglement of the protagonist is not very creative, especially in CBS, a TV station that has always liked to broadcast unit detective dramas. Of course, it can be "best" has a deeper meaning.
The main creator of the show stated at the beginning of the publicity that the political scandals in it did not specifically insinuate any political figure. At the same time, in order not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, the film crew also set the filming location of the show to a location with few political scandals. Chicago, because the politician Florrick "sex scandal" in the film is too easy to imagine. Putting it in New York state, it will remind you of February 2008, when Governor Eliat Spitz spent $80,000 in a row to have an affair with a high-end prostitute. In North Carolina, the scandal of John Edwards' affair with the producer of his campaign film will resurface. As for going to Washington, there are even more cases and associations that can be triggered. Kennedy and Clinton just need to report the names of these two people, and even the case does not need to be mentioned. You and I are tacit.
Of course, in the politically open America, there is absolutely no need for the crew to avoid these scandalous issues, but this approach is to want everyone to focus on the women behind these men. At the beginning of the episode, Alicia, who accompanied her unsatisfactory husband at the press conference, finally gave her husband a slap in the face, and regained the ideal of a lawyer that she had put down for more than ten years, revealing a strong atmosphere of rebirth.
This is definitely an inspirational drama that is full of sadness and joy, especially for middle-aged women in unhappy marriages. Of course, as an ordinary person, not only can your husband "achieve" a scandal that shocked the world like Clinton, but also you can't be as proud as Hillary Clinton to run for the US president, but in any case, you must experience setbacks. , to regain hope in life.
The complexity revealed in it makes The Good Wife enough to be a longevity drama.
——Everything about the drama of "The Wall Street Journal" is arranged just right, especially the tough but resilient personality created by the heroine, which makes the show full of tension.
