Everything came full circle in 'The Good Wife' series finale
The Good Wife ends as it began: with a slap.
There's a lot to talk about in this finale. So here's a quick rundown of what happened: (Note: a full recap/analysis will post later tonight.)
Last week ended with Peter deciding to take the deal right as Alicia received a call that the jury was back. However, it turns out that the jury didn't come back with a verdict. They have one more question, which gives Peter's team so much needed time to gather more evidence that will convince the jury he's not guilty.
Meanwhile, Alicia struggles to decide what she's going to do. Luca tells her what Jason said in the last episode about how she'll stay with Peter if he goes to jail.

What it's really like to be pummeled by Nickelodeon slime
INGLEWOOD, California — Why didn't I come in workout clothes?
That was first thought I had when I watched two brave production assistants rise from their seats at Kids' Choice Award rehearsals, walk into something called the slime super soakers and walk out green shells of human beings
To be fair, when I had signed up to be Slimed — yes, as in receive a Nickelodeon hug — I was told that comfortable, disposable clothing would be a wise choice. Workout gear, flat shoes, etc
Nay, I thought at the time. (I frequently speak to myself in Middle English). I wanted the green to stand out and to go into it completely free of protective gear. Raincoat? Please, I'm no chump Read more...
