The Good Fightis a gloriously ridiculous and over-the-top show.
Thats what makes it such a blast to watch, especially given its very timely subject matter.

Sheen starts devouring the scenery from the moment the episode begins and doesnt stop for its entire runtime.
Is there any evidence of this?
However, she doesnt take him home.
Thankfully, as I mentioned before, the episode has some calmer moments to balance out Blum batstery.
Back at the firm, the partners are busy trying to find a new head of matrimonial litigation.
This actually leads to my favorite scene in the episode, which, surprisingly, wasnt Diane going ax-throwing.
After Lizs push, Lucca goes homes, lays on her bed, and talks to her baby.

Blum is, of course, the extreme.
The truth, rules, and ethics are merely obstacles to winning.
The Kings warned that this season was about liberals breaking bad and were starting to see that here.
