Lots of things to say but let me say this first: if it gets more 50 Shades of Grey with Kalinda, I'll quit. And it seems a lot of people are worried about that too on twitter. so I guess they'll change it... around episode 15

But it doesn't seem to go that way so far so we'll wait and see.

That was a great teaser. I'm still struggling to find the campaign interesting and the Florrick brats shenanigans but at least two big points:

1) The repeat of L&G financial trouble led to some awesome Diane/Will scenes
2) No case of the week, you guys!

Ohhhh TGW I MISSED YOU!!!

Episode was good, not the best but I am just glad its back, I missed it so much

Highlights:

-David Lee getting BITCH slapped a little

-Diane/Will are the CUTEST I love their interactions in this episode. Especially the end

-Kalinda having just Milk in her house!! AMAZING it felt like a small tribute to us fans I really loved that!

-Can we talk about how BADASS Kalinda was in that first scene? Also does she have to FLIRT WITH EVERYONE? I swear she has spelt with all her friends

-Kristin Chenoweth was great!! She looked amazing! I loved it! Her scene with Alicia was great, such a shame she probably won't be back for much more.

-I loved the A/P scenes. But I am conflicted, not sure where Alicia actually stands. I love their interactions but I just wished there were more, but I guess for ONCE they are actually talking, shocking

-Ohh anyone still wondering why Archie armed looked SO toned in her interview....just watch that fight scene again


Other notes:

-If that ****er Bill called my Kalinda a bitch one more time, I was going to jump into my tv screen and **** him up

-Nick is an *******! Thats how he wants to get her back? BY fighting her in the elevator? What kind of TWISTED **** is that? And coming to the firm was his angle? Kalinda is thinking real hard about that? ( And how cute was that A/K scene where Alicia is like "Wow you are really somewhere else today" hehe at least she is noticing)

-Also the way Kalinda pushed him off the bed?

-I was let down by the very little A/K interaction, but I do like the fact that Alicia is talking to Kalinda again, and going to her. Feels like the other is behind us a little.

-Nathan Clarke bitch slapping David Lee was great.....but the firm in trouble again....did nothing for me. But at least Diane was FABULOUS

-Peter is playing no games, brutal Peter is back and not holding back. Even Eli looked shocked So are they setting up drama between the Madison County and the Cook County?

-Was Zach watching Porn at the end? what? HAHA

I have just started watching the episode and I haven't finished but I had to stop to point something out:

Wow, all these A/P feelings during the first 15 minutes of the episode, where did they come from ?

And now they call it "Mending fences"


CHENOOOOOOOOOOO



Back to the episode

Can I ask one more thing? What did everyone find terrible about the "kung fu" scene? (Lily will correct me if she drops by but the only kung fu in that episode is Nick's Matrix move Only missed Kalinda's leather to get the whole thing )

I mean the editing was terrible, as always on the show but the choreography and Archie and Marc were great.

Why does RK insist on pairing Kalinda with arrogant a-holes??! She didn't stay for you, creep! She stayed for Alicia!!

Oh and um... Marc Warren was perfectly creepy and all... just disappointed in the general muscle tone area or rather lack thereof. Come on, dude! Archie worked out!

Sorry for shouting but in case we were not clear before:
WE NEED MORE ALICIA/KALINDA!!!!!!!!!

what feelings?

Quote:

I wonder what she has in storage. More milk? Or her leather jackets and boots? Because they weren't in her closet.

Quote:

Total badass. And very credible too. I was worried about it being unrealistic but it was great. Only thing is... um... K, honey, tossing loaded guns? not a great idea. I know your don't mind holes in your walls but...

Quote:

Weeeeeell... she did crush his hand with a hammer. He was real polite up to that point. She broke the etiquette. So to speak.

Quote:

Weeeeell.... she did start.

Quote:
Also does she have to FLIRT WITH EVERYONE?
Weeeeell.... (see a pattern? ) she was flirted with and she didn't flirt with the thug at the beginning.

Quote:
-Kristin Chenoweth was great!! She looked amazing! I loved it! Her scene with Alicia was great, such a shame she probably won't be back for much more.
Even with her position on women who stay?

Quote:

the true mark of an A/P shipper. Everyone else is pretty sure where she stands: driving away and looking at the rearview mirror waving bye bye

Quote:
-David Lee getting BITCH slapped a little
But at least he's staaaaaaaying!! They got me real worried!

Quote:

again. TGW is not Boss. I repeat: TGW is NOT Boss

Not sure where in the first 15 minutes you are referring, but that other scene well all I can see the feelings where always there just buried deep deep inside

Editing was terrible, which is probably what people didn't like and why they thought it looked faked.

what feelings?
Kalinda looked like she was ridiculously slapfighting Nick in the preview but I saw the difference in the scene. I think just those couple seconds they showed in the preview looked bad.


I gotta say, the Kalinda scenes tonight were entertaining but I don't know...We'll see. I have to see more.

So glad TGW is back!!

I really loved the episode. Here are my favorite things about this new season:

- The shift towards politics and the governor's campaign. So many possibilities there and I'm really looking forward to it (reporters, Alicia's involvement in the campaign etc.)
-Zach's case was really interesting and fun to watch
-Will and Diane are truly amazing together, Diane running back to her office at the end of the episode was cute and touching.
-I'm loving Nathan Lane's character and also hope Kristin Chenoweth comes back, Alicia was fierce in that scene, don't mess with her!!
-Kalinda/Nick thing is really messed up but I guess we'll learn more about Kalinda's past.
-And last, my neverending conflict: Alicia/Will or Alicia/Peter?? It looked like she really wanted to work things out with Peter. But she still brought Will a bottle of Veuve Cliquot and put ribbons on it!! At the end of season 3 I was pretty sure A/W were done but now I think there's still a possiblity and I'm actually liking it! Although it would also be great that Alicia tries again with Peter. See? I'm conflicted!!
-Another thing: I'm pretty sure A/W's affair will be discovered pretty soon.

Can't wait for next week's episode.
