The Good Wife: Julianna Margulies & Cast Live at the Paley Center

Julianna Margulies leads a stellar panel with cast mates Josh Charles, Archie Panjabi, Christine Baranski, Matt Czuchry. This Paley Center for Media live event honors “The Good Wife,” the series about a Chicago lawyer who returns to work after her politician husband is embroiled in a public scandal. Matt Roush (senior critic, TV Guide Magazine) moderates the following panelists: cast members Julianna Margulies (Alicia Florrick), Josh Charles (Will Gardner), Archie Panjabi (Kalinda Sharma), Christine Baranski (Diane Lockhart), and Matt Czuchry (Cary Agos). The panelists touch on such topics as: reasons Margulies had for returning to series television; why the show is based in Chicago but shot in New York; and Kalinda’s mysterious character and her ambiguous sexuality. Questions from the audience then lead to a discussion of the following topics among others: if real-life wives of politicians have responded to the show; the cast’s research into law practice; and why the series appeals to a surprisingly young audience.
