If you haven’t watched the new series “The Good Wife” on CBS yet, you really should!  I loved it!  Chris Noth plays a scandalous politician who cheated on his wife with a prostitute.  His wife is played by Julianna Margulies, who tries to pick up her life after the scandal.  This is one of those shows that I just immediately loved as soon as I watched the first episode!  I can’t wait to see more!

In case you missed it, here’s a teaser of the show.

The next episode will air Tuesday 9/29/09 from 10pm-11pm on CBS.

So many stories have hit the headlines about the various politicians being corrupt and embarrasing their wives in front of the world.  Here’s a show that plays out the story of the wife after the scandal.  I’ve often wondered what the wives, who stood there stoically by their husbands during these scandals, what they did after wards?  Did they just hide from everyone?  Or did they try to find the strength to go on with their lives?  This show definitely gives you an interesting perspective on those lives.
