UPDATE: After an insipidly stupid episode in Season 3 with Diane throwing hatchets, a cartoon song about Trump and Roy Cohen, a lousy Al Pacino impression from Michael Sheen and liberals walking around fuming about Trump 24/7, I STOPPED watching. A promising series just became too hateful and stupid. Enough navel gazing! Maybe it would have gotten better, but I don't care anymore. ICK. Original review: If you loved The Good Wife (I did) then you will enjoy The Good Fight as many of the characters re-appear with some notable additions that keep the show fresh and sharp. The writing is excellent, the acting really good even though the opening credits with accompanying music is a little manic and desperate. As a conservative, I appreciate a differing opinion and the left-leaning of Hollywood doesn't offend me, but it does make me laugh out loud sometimes. I am currently watching Season 2 and the episodes surrounding the Russia Hoax are good for several guffaws. I look forward to watching them handle the scamdemic. Elsbeth Tascioni and Judge Abernathy are two stand-outs. Kevin Pollack's judge is deliciously sarcastic and the courtroom scenes are electric. It is fun to watch a show that thinks it is making a self-righteous statement about politics, while unintentionally skewering lawyers that sell their souls for money. Fun, fun, fun!

Sadly, the same trashy sex and graphic violence employed to demonstrate that those knocking around 172 years before the Game of Thrones era were just as barbaric and power-greedy. (They didn't know or care how to sew up a woman after a Caesarean either.) The music is majestic, the dragons are awesome, the girl playing Rinera is homely and the men are soy boys trying to be tough in stupid white wigs. Oh, there is one brutal villian. Royalty knows that they don't control the dragons, but capitalizes on the ruse to keep the serfs enslaved....sounds familiar. Don't think I will waste my time watching gore, blood and sex while hoping this prequel doesn't end as badly as the original.
