The Good Wife Season 4 Promo: "Stronger, Sexier"
Last year The Good Wife marketing department told us "Don't let the name fool you" and this time the campaign is leading with "Stronger, Sexier." We are also treated to all new footage that introduces some of the new players to The Good Wife's political and personal scene and it definitely teases enough information to make this one the most anticipated returning shows.
Once again the issue of commitment is discussed; commitment that we saw in the pilot episode as Alicia (Julianna Margulies) stood by (or rather behind) her man at the press conference that revealed Peter (Chris Noth) had been unfaithful. This time it is reporter Peggy Byrne (guest star Kristin Chenoweth) who is asking the questions and from the nature it would seem that either Alicia and Peter have reconciled, or the news of their separation has yet to leak to the press.

The Good Wife Season 4 Premiere Photos
With just over a month before The Good Wife returns for season 4, CBS has released promo photos for the season premiere "I Fought the Law." The new season will present challenges both old and new for all at Lockhart Gardner and expect Peter's (Chris Noth) campaign to be a central story this year.
The season finale saw Lockhart Gardner take a massive financial hit as their biggest client Patrick Edelstein (Jack Carpenter) decided to take his business elsewhere. This is a huge blow and will leave Will (Josh Charles) and Diane (Christine Baranski) scrambling to get their finances in order. Nathan Lane will make his first appearance in the season opener as Clarke Hayden; the firm's appointed trustee whose primary role is to reduce Lockhart Gardner's outgoings. This will cause conflict with not only Will and Diane, but other lawyers such as David Lee (Zach Grenier) at the firm.
