A particular episode or scene… ?I loved “Hitting the Fan.” But the episode that I felt like we had turned a corner in terms of being [more than just] this “network television [show]” was our 100th episode, “The Decision Tree.” I loved that [we got to] see what [lawyers] do to prepare for a cross-examination. I [also] loved the sort of film noir [aspect] where all of a sudden we were in flashbacks and , ‘Was it all in [Will’s] head?’ And the way we it shot against this black drop with no one there but [Will and Alicia] — it felt like an existential play. I’ve never seen that in television, cable or network. TVLINE | Has Julianna the Good Wife actress ever been at odds with Julianna the Good Wife producer?[Laughs] There are definitely times that I have to put my producer hat on and let go of being an actor, and there are things that maybe I would complain about but because I’m the producer I don’t. TVLINE | How long do you envision the show going?Eighteen years. [Laughs] Robert’s always said he had seven years of this show in him, and my feeling is, I want to do it as long as the writer feels he has something to write… Alicia is basically in every scene. Characters can come and go on the show, but she can’t. So as long as they’re happy to write for Alicia, I’m happy to play her. My guess is we’ll go seven seasons.

Not that he wasn't before but there's something very special and kind of raw about his season 5 performance. I guess he was particularly inspired by knowing he was leaving soon. I'm wondering which ep did he submit? Was it Hitting The Fan, which was obviously a great ep for him and all. But I did like him better in The Decision Tree, and thought he was superb there. I think that Josh gave one of the greatest performances I've ever seen on Tv. With all due respect to the other contenders in this category, I think the award should definitely go to Josh.

Rinaldo July 14, 2014 Share July 14, 2014 I'm glad the show scored few Emmy noms today. I'm hoping you accidentally left out "a few" as opposed to being glad it didn't get many? (Hey, we've all done it....) How can the show not be nominated for an Emmy but Juliana, Christine, and Josh all nominated for acting? It happens all the time; in theory, it might show good discrimination, as acting can be good on a show that is not overall among the best. In this case, though, who knows? It could be, as @Mama No Life says, that this is the nominators' genuine opinion. Or it could be how things happened to add up in different categories as people fumbled among the choices.

It was truly a great ep for him although I still feel like The Decision Tree would be a slightly better choice. Don't know. I just want him to win this. JM made a good choice by submitting The Last Call, her strongest ep in the last two years Imo. CB had a great plot in Outside The Bubble so I was a bit surprised she picked The Last Call instead.

milkyaqua September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 I didn't see the article it came from personally (or at least I don't remember seeing it) but on the previous forum I was on, this was pretty common knwledge. Supposedly, JM put the kibosh on the Kalicia friendship because she didn't believe Alicia would remain friends with a woman who not only slept with her husband but lied about it when she was asked. Here is where the show did some retconning. Remember earlier in the show's run where Alicia jokingly asks Kalinda if she also slept with her husband and Kalinda said, no? So when Alicia finds out that she did in fact sleep with Peter and lied about it regardless of the reason, that for JM was supposedly reasoning for the cooling of their friendship.

photo fox September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 It makes total sense to me that Alicia would no longer want to be Kalinda's friend. But it makes NO sense to me that they haven't shared a scene in months. Not even a work-related, everybody in the conference room together type of scene. LG and FA cross paths in court and out of it constantly, Kalinda is sleeping with Alicia's partner and Girl Friday to Alicia's potential partner, and they both lost a mutual loved one. And yet we never see Kalinda and Alicia in the same room together? That's what seems so off in my eyes. After all, Alicia hasn't forgiven Peter, but JM shares plenty of scenes with CN. Heck, she shared lots of scenes with JC when Alicia and Will were feuding.
