Crack writing, tight editing, brilliant acting, interesting direction, and a world that seems so realistic, sometimes it's easy to forget it's fiction. These elements are demonstrated consistently in The Good Wife, and it is the reason the show received so many Emmy nominations for its first season. With episodes like "Nine Hours", it can expect to see more of the same next year. The Good Wife will continue its sophomore season on January 11th.
"A sinister cabal of superior writers."

I agree 100%. This show is brilliant from beginning to end. I have to ask though...Why was everyone so uptight about the daughter praying?
2 - Jerome Wetzel
I don't know. I was a little confused on that point as well.

Agree totally with your review..it was great. Also agree that Cary needs more screen time. He's a terrific character and beautifully acted. More Cary please!

Completely agree with your review!
Was a little upset that they seemed so uncomfortable with Grace praying. I'm not particularly religious, but I don't see the harm.
Only question: Thoughts on Kalinda this episode? I thought she was brilliant as well.

Kalinda is always brilliant. I do wish she would have opened up a little more to Alicia though. She had the perfect opportunity, but she is obsessed with her own privacy. Ironic, considering her job. And probably useful for her job.
