WOW this ep of The Good Wife was cinematographically a love letter to their first season, wasn't it? That final scene - Alicia at the podium - was framed and cut perfectly to echo her standing there with Peter in the first episode. I love how smart this show is, I love it.

Also: Elsbeth. That is all.

The quirky parts of this show are not really for me, and they were not only in abundance in this episode, they were actually even more over-the-top than usual. And kind of confusing.

Ah! Makes sense. I loved seeing the inside of Elsbeth's brain, though, I must say.

The more I think about it, the more I feel like this ep did Kalinda a disservice, rolling back to s1 characterization while ignoring a lot of her arc since. :/

Yeah, and I totally had mixed feelings about that. I liked seeing the Kalinda I loved, but it also really underscored the fact that she is just not allowed to grow on this show.
