I like her too. Kalinda is one of the most intersting and mysterious characters on television. I love Kalinda and Lana (sexy FBI agent) but I hope they do more with them because Lana keeps asking Kalinda to come work for her. I'm disappointed that the show didn't show their kiss from last season. Instead they cut away from it. How lame. Anyway, loved the foot tease during dinner. :) Then right after that scene, we get that weird Kalinda/Blake scene that was played up as sexual tension. I'm glad it ended with Kalinda striking Blake with the bat. But what did Blake say to Kalinda, "I found your husband."?

The Social Network/Aaron Sorkin spoof was funny. But like most cases on this show, the law part on this show isn't that interesting - maybe I'm just used to David E. Kelley law scenes/cases. What I enjoy about the show are the character and what happens with them.

Ok I am going to say it I still like the show but I dont love it this season. It's almost like there is too much going on. The only really consistant thread this season has been Will but I feel like they are trying to do too much with too many characters and too much reliance on stunt cssting. I liked Michael J Fox's addition in a sort of recurring role but the rest feel unnecessary to me.

I like Eli for example but I am not sure I like him as part of the law firm. The lack of focus on Alicias personal dilemmas to an extent to me has hurt the show and while I like the law firm and law aspect of the show, I just feel like they are focusing too much on it. I wanted to see more of Kalindas past catchup to her and it seems they dropped that also. Cary isn't getting IMO enough focus and I adore Christine Baranski but I'm not crazy about what they've done with her characters personal life.

I still like the show, last season was fantastic I'm just not loving it this year.

Thanks for posting. I don't really follow any forums or spoilers for TGW so I wasn't sure of the consensus. Nice to see they acknowledged some of the issues and while I'm not crazy about the focus on Diane's personal life only because none of the characters they've introduced for her are that intriging, I do like the fact they've increased her power on the work front.

Well I crawl TGW forums enough for the both of us. Trust. LOL! It seems like everybody has an issue with this season for one reason or another.

I rather like seeing more of Diane's personal life. We've seen so much about Will this season, I'm eager to learn more about her.

    • I admit...I too thought of Penny and Good Times at that ending with SilkPress.
    • Yes, just so.  Thanks for the info. I could tell this was going to be a big thing with ShawnD in this danger! Especially love that the little guy is Andrew!
    • I think the shocker would be if he's NOT playing Dumas. That's where Josh Griffith plays most of his stories. Now they have Cole "self-isolating" because they don't want to put up that hospital set. Will Cole cough himself to death at the GCAC? What a "storyline." I can't believe how much JG is playing with us regarding Nick and Sharon. The teasing has become pathetic, especially for Shick fans who want them back together. My guess is that he'll reveal his real name once he is exposed.
    • Maybe we'll meet Leslie's mama who'll be a former Articulette and they'll build the rival family from there that a lot of people seem to think is missing. It'd make sense considering Anita's been hammering on about going on tour and reviving her music career. 
    • hahaha at the Brennan shade.   But even I saw this and have to agree. What's really sad is that some of the person on that list could easily have a love interest that is on the canvas. They just need to be written for. 
    • The thought has crossed my mind. Tricia Mann-Grant did say in her EW interview w/ MVJ and DD, that Leslie wants to be a Dupree just as bad as she wants Eva to be. I believe now that's the direction they are going in, that maybe she is just obsessed with the family. I could be wrong though.
    • True. But I have always had mixed feelings about that twist. Since I love the Damian storyline which already had twists and turns. Also I could not wait for a new powerful AND BLACK businessman to mix it up at some point with Victor. It just seem like another twist that was added on for twist sake. And also for a character (whether I love him or not) to hijack a new and refreshing storyline so they can be propped.    Once good thing that I can say about JG is that he loves to keep the Abbotts in rotation. So I could see that happening with Diane. I don't think she has mentioned her backstory, either. I would be intrigued. 
    • That's how I feel. Beats could have been played for the past couple months wherein Dante and Gio interacted and had a difference of opinion -- or something. I don't know. I do know that this crushing rant that blames everything on Gio is absurd. -- Reading over all the comments here about characters and couples, it's kind of amazing that we have any show left considering the number of times actors and writers and execs were given influence to make major character and story decisions. Too many cooks in the kitchen.
