like so many finales, it was good and awful. maybe they’ll do a couple of good wife movies a year. or just leave us wondering, which they always claim is better, but I don’t agree. For example the soprano’s was never the same for me after the ending. never watched any reruns again. Will deeply miss this show, such good writing, acting and directing. Maybe brain dead will be good.
