‘The Good Wife’ season 6, episode 11 spoilers: Christine Baranski on Alicia / Finn situation

While there is no new episode of “The Good Wife” airing on CBS Sunday night, the good news that we do have for you right now is that this is the last time you are going to be hearing this for a while. Come January 4, the show will be back with some further episodes, and hopefully some great cases to unravel … including a huge one regarding Cary’s fate.

Away from that and even the State’s Attorney election, there is one other interesting question worth asking: Is there a future between Alicia and Finn? Julianna Margulies and Matthew Goode have played this story very well, especially when it comes to even allowing us to entertain this possibility, given what we saw happen to Will last season. At one time, we did not even think that would be possible.

Speaking to E! News, Margulies’ co-star Christine Baranski (Diane) does seem to be doing her best to get us to exercise caution. While these two could have a future together, there is not going to be any rush to make it happen:

“Don’t you love that it’s like the old days, like the old movies where romance is in, what’s not said and what’s not done? … That’s truly sexy.”

“Look how long they played out, ‘Are Alicia and Will ever going to get together?’ That played out for a long time, that kind of tension between them, the little looks and the little moments…It’s that brief encounter where you go, ‘Oh, my God!’ The audience just longs for that union.”

Really, we are okay with that “longing,” provided of course that there is not any obvious time-wasting going on in the process. As long as there is something else going on always, we are pretty happy.
