The Good Fight (2017–2022)
10/10
This has to be one of the best TV shows ever made
23 May 2020
The Good Fight is one of the few spin off shows that manages to outdo its predecessor. At its fundamental core, it's a legal drama, but that's almost secondary to what's really going on: a commentary on the absolute insanity that this world is becoming. No topic seems to be off the table for TGF, and the show's creators are intelligent in presenting all this controversial content in a very tongue-in-cheek way that challenges us to try and see the madness.

Contrary to popular belief, The Good Fight seems to take as many pot shots at the Left as they do the Right, though they are subtler and more satirical in their portrayal of the Left and more obvious for the Right. The show does follow characters who are left wing, but in doing so, it shows that neither side are completely saints or sinners.

The wit and humour is superb, a show that just as easily masters comedy as it does high drama. It's tackling real issues brazenly and boldly but in a way that merely observes the crazy phenomena rather than push any agenda.

This is a brilliant commentary on current affairs.
