‘The Good Fight”

The fourth season of CBS All Access’ biggest hit, and absolutely its best show, The Good Fight began last week, and episode 2 of season 4 will be on tomorrow, Thursday, April 16th.

It’s a wonderfully written series, created by Robert King, Michelle King, and Phil Alden Robinson, and has absolutely the best cast on TV.
