"The Good Wife" Creators Look Back
"The Good Wife" has been lauded as a rare quality show on network TV and its creators acknowledge that they are lucky to have ensemble of actors, including guest actors, who are able to deliver what they have written perfectly. "We have great actors," said Michelle King in The Salt Lake Tribune. "If we didn't, they wouldn't be able to get all the words out of their mouths."
It's been hinted that "The Good Wife" will end with the Florricks standing behind a podium for a press conference to bookend how the show started seven years ago. Viewers should supposedly keep their eye on Alicia in the final scenes. "I think if you put the last episode and the first episode together and look at the changes in this woman, you would be surprised," said Robert King via the Daily Beast.
