by

Fans in the UK now have a new way to watch The Good Fight, the popular legal drama starring Christine Baranski and Cush Jumbo. With a great cast and lots of episodes available, it’s perfect for a binge-watching session!

This show, which started as a continuation of The Good Wife, features Christine Baranski as Diane Lockhart. Diane loses her job and a significant amount of money due to a financial scheme, and she rebuilds her career by joining a law firm in Chicago.

This legal drama first aired in 2017 and ran for six seasons, totaling 60 episodes, before ending in 2022. Now, you can watch the entire series on Prime Video.

I loved watching all the guest stars on The Good Wife over the years! Besides Christine Baranski, who was amazing, they really brought in some incredible actors. I remember being so excited to see Rose Leslie, Erica Tazel, Delroy Lindo, Matthew Perry, Michael Sheen, and Alan Cumming pop up – it always made an episode even better!

Critics have praised the legal drama, giving it a 95% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes over its six seasons. The first season received the highest score (98%), and the fifth the lowest (91%).

When the first season launched, The Guardian praised The Good Fight for seamlessly blending all its components, just like its original series, and predicted continued success. Meanwhile, AV Club (as reported by Rotten Tomatoes) described it as a captivating drama focused on its characters.

While the show often draws inspiration from current events, its popularity comes from being a genuinely enjoyable, well-made, and dynamic series, as noted by The New Yorker when reviewing the second season.

The London Evening Standard also highly praised the third season, noting that The Good Fight is creatively filmed, mostly taking place indoors, and features sharp writing and excellent performances. The show isn’t afraid to take chances, either.

According to IndieWire, the fourth season of The Good Fight is captivating thanks to its well-written scripts, compelling storytelling by Robert and Michelle King, and strong acting from the entire cast. It’s a show that’s easy to become invested in.

According to AV Club, the fifth season of The Good Fight kicked off with a fast-paced and over-the-top style that’s characteristic of the show’s blend of drama and comedy. Vulture added that the final season was among the best the series had to offer.

If you’re looking for another captivating show alongside this legal drama, Prime Video’s new crime thriller, Scarpetta, starring Nicole Kidman and Jamie Lee Curtis, might be just what you need.
