Will getting himself held in contempt, even putting his feet up on the table in the middle of court, just to get a 24 hour continuance is just an awesome move. I would want him as my lawyer if I ever needed one.
That first judge is like some posters on the internet. "That's only your opinion!" "Well yeah, when I write something it's obviously my opinion... *facepalm*"
'And I was surprised, in reviewing your past court cases, how often you encouraged lawyers to move on, without actually ruling, therefore avoided having your non-rulings overturned on appeal.....in my opinion.'
I wish they did a spin-off for Will too. The Good Wife, The Good Fight and for will: The Good Life. You know a show of his life after law school up to alicia coming back to his life.
The military court case Was the best episode From the entire season. It was a funny episode & Will Gardner reminds Me of Harvey Specter. They look similar,or is It just me!??
Will: Why are you here? Judge Kuhn: To court-martial you. Will: ...ha, ha. xD I liked the dynamic between Will and the female judges. Judge Kuhn is my favourite of all TGW judges. :)
You can be offended all you want but a judge shouldn’t get to skirt the law. If she had nothing to hide then why did she need an hour lunch recess when she already said she was sustaining it without stating it.
Kudos to the casting people for "The Good Wife". Ana Gasteyer plays Judge Patrice Lessner ("In my opinion...) but is best known for her six seasons as a cast member on "Saturday Night Live". Linda Emond in the military court plays Judge Leora Kuhn but is well known for her work on Broadway and has several Tony nominations. Sharp viewers will recognize many guest actors (male and female) both from the Broadway stage as well as two judges who played crime bosses on HBO "The Sopranos" (Junior Soprano and Johnny 'Sack' Sacramoni).
You can see why Alicia slept with Will lmao 😂 dude’s daredevil 😂 without the catholic compass lmao 🤣 Judge: hell of a way to get a continuous Will: bitch please it was nothing lmao 🤣 7:44 Spoiler, the Prosecution was sleeping with the witness and the defendant’s superior officer was forcefully sleeping with his wife but Alicia and Will won the case but ultimately lost as the defendant had to return to Active Duty ( where everyone would know what happened and probably get a hard time or even killed… plus his wife is dead which makes this a lose lose episode) 🔥💯
I absolutely am so tired of court shows that do the whole surprise evidence thing. Evidence that wasnt submitted to discovery isnt allowed in the court, period.
Ana Gasteyer looked like she was having a ball as the 'in my opinion' judge. This had to come from some real judge or courtroom experience since it's so off the wall as to be thought up by some writer.
Will was a Dick but in this episode he not only did what was right but he owned that court room and demonstrated that even your superiors have flaws and when it comes down to someone’s future/fate… ( I can’t pick a word ) it’s detrimental, pinnacle, honorable to represent them to the best of your ability… I took the Bar in my state once but it’s not there to trick you but it was incredibly difficult and even tho I didn’t passed ( I wanted to pass just to be more knowledgeable about my rights as a citizen ) I understand the depth of an Oath or for myself the value of the Truth… hint hint you can go to a public library to learn the law and if you want to go further go to the Library of Congress… it’ll have everything… having a retentive memory is a bitch sometimes… this show exaggerates a bit for suspense and drama but they do their research too… every U.S State has different laws
So the case was a lawyer accused of giving a witness list to his drug lord client and thus getting a witness killed. Eventually the client blackmails the drug lord into giving up the killer who claims he did it without information from the client. So the courtroom stuff all kind of ended up being pointless.
Will Gardner will would eat Harvey for lunch. I know what I am talking about as I have watched the Good Wife thrice and still watching Suits. Characters on Suits are way too emotional. Characters on TGW are much more balanced.
