This week we finally discuss our all time favorite legal drama The Good Fight (Paramount+) whose sixth and final season aired last November. A spinoff of the long running legal/political Drama The Good Wife (CBS), the show follows Diane Lockhart (played by the wonderful Christine Baranski) as she transitions into working for a prestigious and Black owned law firm alongside her friend and colleague Liz Reddick (played by the glorious Aurdra McDonald). We discuss the ways in which this overtly political show defied and pushed the boundaries of genre, and with great creativity, used its extremely current storylines and plots to make incisive, sometimes controversial, but always appropriately complex social commentary - including on realities as big and thorny as the rise in white supremacy. In this episode we make the bold claim "If TV could save lives, The Good Fight would" - we love this show that much and we hope you enjoy the episode.
