The Good Wife #3.15

Everytime someone utters the words "ChumHum", an angel loses its wings. Worst fake-Facebook everrrrrr.

I can't tell whether I'm too hip to the zeitgeist for this show, or if it's aiming at me and missing by a thousand yards. Like........ anyone who's web-savvy and vaguely political knows about the lesbian Arab Spring blogger who wasn't a lesbian. Was it supposed to be a surprise when TGW threw that twist into their story?

The case files this season have just been the WORST. They're so over-involved and ripped-from-the-headlines that I find it distracting. I seem to remember the writers saying during s1 that they were trying to minimise the time spent on the cases in each episode in order to spend more time on character stuff. What happened to that impulse?

Although: HALLELUJAH, something actually happened. I'm not sure how I feel about Will's suspension, but it's a PLOT DEVELOPMENT and one that wasn't hideously telegraphed. I'll take what I can get, because I just feel like this season has been spent in a dull, predictable holding pattern.

Also, my favourite incidental character, Geneva, is back! All this time that Cary's been bro'ing around with Randomly Bitchy Non-Lesbian Dana, I've been missing Geneva.
