Good Wife spinoff The Good Fight is coming to W Network.
The series will debut Sunday, Feb. 19 at 8 p.m. on both W and Global TV, with future episodes airing exclusively on W.
The Good Fight picks up a year after the finale of The Good Wife, with Diane (Christine Baranski) financially destroyed by a Bernie Madoff-type scam and forced out of her own law firm. She joins the predominantly black firm of Lucca Quinn (Cush Jumbo) along with her goddaughter Maia (Rose Leslie).
Also returning are Good Wife creators Robert and Michelle King, but the star of that show, Julianna Margulies, is not part of the spinoff.
Robert King told the Star’s Tony Wong in February that the series will feature themes critical of the Donald Trump presidency.
“We’re not necessarily looking at the nuts and bolts of what Trump wrought as president but his impact on the culture,” King said. “And we’re satirizing how Liberals are acting. Or maybe overreacting. And how that dynamic is played out.”
The Good Fight also stars Delroy Lindo, Erica Tazel, Sarah Steele and Justin Bartha.
