DESCRIPTION:

(from CBS's press release, February 2016) CBS today announced the series finale of THE GOOD WIFE in dramatic fashion with a special promotional spot broadcast during Super Bowl 50 touting the show's final nine episodes. The series finale of broadcast television's most acclaimed drama will air Sunday, May 8 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT). "It's never easy to say goodbye to one of the crown jewels of your network and studio, much less to a show that is among the best on television," said Glenn Geller, President, CBS Entertainment and David Stapf, President, CBS Television Studios. "But it also feels very right to end with the seven-year story its creators envisioned, and to celebrate the show's final run while at the top of its creative game. It has been CBS's sincere privilege to broadcast and produce THE GOOD WIFE for seven extraordinary seasons. We thank and applaud the outstanding cast, led by the impeccable Julianna Margulies, and the consummate writing and producing team, headed by the brilliant Robert and Michelle King, who brought to life a smart, sophisticated series that has delivered audiences so many memorable characters and unforgettable moments. It is a series that will only grow in prestige as its episodes are watched again or discovered by new viewers for many years to come."
