Overrated! While this show has a great cast of actors and a slew of interest characters there are too many episodes that rely on noise drama

Good show tackling real-life issues & dilemmas of a "good wife". Alicia felt hypocritical. Loved Will; character arcs fell apart post-S5.

Way better than you'd expect for an episodic network legal drama

Incredible writing, including terrific characters and stories brought to life with compelling drama, humor, and fantastic performances

I can’t get over this show, such excellent acting and storyline. I loved all of those women being fierce and the force of nature!

I love this show so much. All the characters were interesting and very well written, and the it fits any vibes. I’m so attached I need more.

First few seasons are really great but it gets incredibly boring and uninteresting during season 5. By season 6 I’m no longer invested.

Good actors that fit their roles, solid writing, and chemistry between the actors holds the show together.

It has wide fan base and been recommended so many times but i didn't like it
