The Good Fight, Season 2
Jun. 20th, 2019 09:41 amAmazon Prime put up the second season of The Good Fight, which I just finished marathoning, with great delight. My continuing impression: the spin-off gives me all I’d liked about the parent show without the things I came to dislike, and manages to improve on its successful first season by getting rid what few nitpicks I had there. Also, it unabashedly makes the Orange Menace and all he stands for the primary Antagonist (aka Big Bad), which means they don’t have to invent an arch nemesis for our characters to defeat only to keep trying to top this in the next season and failing. And nobody can accuse them of going over the top with their Big Bad, because, well, #45. Definitely (not just) the lawyer show for our time.
(BTW: the main villain being the current real life, not fictional, President of the country the show’s produced and set in – it’s a first, isn’t it?)
( Nobody’s above the law )
