What is ‘The Good Wife’ spin-off about? The plot has finally been revealed!

If you’ve been a fan of CBS’s hit TV series The Good Wife, we’re here to offer you some fantastic news: We now have details about what The Good Wife spin-off will entail, and trust us, it does not disappoint. As Devon Ivie at Vulture reports, actress Sarah Steele is officially reprising her role as Marissa Gold on the spin-off of The Good Wife, which will air on CBS All Access. According to Deadline, the spin-off series will take place one year after the last episode of The Good Wife and the plot will mostly explore “an enormous financial scam that has destroyed the reputation of a young lawyer, while simultaneously wiping out her mentor Diane Lockhart’s savings.” Pretty intense stuff, right?

In terms of the rest of the cast, it’s been confirmed that Christine Baranski, Cush Jumbo, and Luca Quinn will be returning. Of course, when it comes to a spin-off series, you can never be quite sure if fans will love it as much as they did the original. Luckily for us, it appears that people are already super excited about this continuation of the beloved show. Just look at these excited fans on social media:

CBS is still calling the spinoff “The new edition of ‘The Good Wife,’” when we all know it’ll be called “Gooder Wives: Barb’s Revenge."
