You gotta love situational ethics. In any other circumstances I'd probably be cheering for the FBI while they arrest a drug kingpin. Instead, I found myself tearing up as Lemond Bishop was whisked away by Federal agents. I don't want him to leave Dylan! Even with that guardianship arrangement in order.

But I'm getting ahead of myself here. Lockhart/Gardner's most lucrative—and dangerous—client Lemond Bishop returned seeking...

When I heard about the series 'The Good Wife' I thought "...not another one of those again", talk about judging a book by it's cover. The opening scene established the basis of the promotion; a good wife who stuck by her husband just up until his cheating and fraud scandal. In those moments the premise of 'Jack and Bobby' and other politician based shows with the extra drama came to mind, but then the series took a new spin when Alicia Florrick stepped into an apparent law firm to continue her career after her husband had been jailed.

I think back to court based shows like Boston Legal and placed...

Here is a list of my top five favorite episodes from Season One (2009-2010) of CBS's "THE GOOD WIFE", which stars Julianna Margulies:


TOP FIVE FAVORITE "THE GOOD WIFE" SEASON ONE EPISODES

SPOILER ALERT! If you haven’t yet seen tonight’s season finale of The Good Wife stop reading now. We asked creators Robert and Michelle King to dissect the hour, which Robert directed, and tease where we’re headed in season 4.


ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Let’s start with Kalinda. She described her sexuality to Alicia as “flexible.” Is it flexible when she needs something, or flexible because she truly enjoys both men and women? What should we believe?
Robert King: I think what you want to believe, anyway, is that she can’t distinguish between enjoyment and need or...

Quotes from some of the episodes!



Episode 1: Pilot

Alicia: You're worried about my husband, Mr. Childs. You've obviously never made a woman angry.

Peter: When I get out, it will all go back to normal.
Alicia: Nothing will ever go back to normal.

Alicia: Funny or Die has a skit about you. It's cool, I guess.

Client: Does it ever get easier?
Alicia: No, but you do get better at it.

Alicia: You won't feel like it. But put on nice clothing. Force yourself to. Not for public. For you.

Diane: You have some very prominent baggage. But, hey, if [Hilary Clinton] can do it, so can you.

Dianet: When I was...

This week I was called before a panel investigating the Independent Police Review Authority’s report on the Roland Masters shooting at the Addison CTA stop. The IPRA was created in 2007 in response to concerns about how allegations of police misconduct were being handled.

The Chicago City Council created the Independent Police Review Authority to replace the Office of Professional Standards (OPS), which was staffed by civilians but which still operated as part of the police department. The IPRA is staffed with civilian investigators and is an independent...
