She has always carried herself well and known when to step back and leave on a high note. As she did with ER. Wish her nothing but success in her public and private life moving forward.
I fully agree with her, although I feel like she could appear in season 3 if there are more episodes or season 4. We cannot forget what an impact she had on Diane and Lucca, so her still being in their eye is just logical. But season 1 and 2 did so extremely well on giving us new characters, developing them and letting them work on amazing stories that I have to say there was no place foe Alicia, and I 100% agree it would habe shifted the focus away from the main cast of The Good Fight.
But yea, PLEASE let Eli be in season 3. Feels so weird how he is not even present for a scene yet Marissa is a main character
as much as I love her decision not do the good fight, I hope she can come in atleast 1 episode in coming season. just for some old time sake.
I wholeheartedly agree, Jesus, I just wanna see her for ONE goddamn episode
I honestly miss Will more than Alicia. It's Will and Eli that I miss a lot
Michelle Mae Simplicio eli was the best character. David Lee was second best
Michelle Mae Simplicio no way Alicia was amazing breaks my heart that I won't see her grace the screen as her anymore. The Good Wife really is a great show. Sucks that it ended but I get it. Still have that girl crush on Jules
same. i love diane and lucca and i liked most of the new characters (adrian esp) but i miss will the most :(
Alicia's story is concluded. As messed up as bittersweet how it ended, her final moments should be left in that closing shot of that hallway... nothing wrong with a cameo though 🙄 but not an arc. Oooh and a Carey cameo, that'll be cool!!!
Now Eli and Kalinda, those would be welcome arcs!!!
Doubt it would happen, but oh, how I would love if we could have some Archie Panjabi. What JM did there was a damn shame.
True, it was the right decision and Chris is doing a fantastical job giving the show fresh energy
At first I was sad to hear that she declined a role, but she's absolutely right. Her return would've made the show all about her. And now I find I don't even think about her, the show is rolling along fantastically without her.
danromero I still think about Alicia. It's normal...nothing wrong with that lol. I mean she was in the main show and she was absolutely amazing. Yes they are doing great on The Good Fight but there's nothing wrong with remembering
I miss Will Gardner much more than I miss anyone in this show, it's become the most painful and the softest part in my mind.
She praised her former colleagues and took a shot at Jay Leno at the same time. I love her.
I think it was the good decision for her not to be on The Good Fight in the first season, and even though season 2 already started it still feels too soon. I would like to see Alicia on the show but is not the right time, some of this characters need more development.
katyga I don't know if you saw the last episodes but we can see her in court a few times, and this makes me so glad!
I guess in second episode of season two she appears in the Court, behind Lucca and Maia.
That makes complete sense. You gotta let the new show gain it's own wings and fly otherwise you risk outshining the new stars. A suggestion that would be cool is if the show makes it to season 4 that Alicia returns as the new Governor in an episode because that was the direction they were going when it ended.
Or you risk having one of them outshine you and then trying to torpedo her career just because you're so insecure. If you're Margulies, that is.
Classy and stunning as always.
Love her for that!! So Graceful... Thinking beyond oneself to celebrate anothers blessings! ❤
@@tejaswoman oh...I hadn't heard there was and issue between the two ladies. I love Archie and was really disappointed when she left. I thought all parted on good terms.
I never forgave julianna for ruing the character of Kalinda
AMEN, and say it again for the ones in the back who didn't hear it. Such a childish, immature excuse for a person.
They could bring grace in as a lawyer like how cute would that be
he last episode was 5/10. Rest of show 7.9/10
Miss her in the show. But she has a good point. Totally understand where’s she’s coming from. Bring back Kalinda and Cary Agos.....
She should come back in the last scene of the final episode and smack Diane’s face. And leave without a word.
Or Diane sees her in court and she slaps her another time without saying a word.
I miss her so much!I hope she accepts the invitation someday.
She is so beautiful. I'm glad she seems well and I hope she has more success to come and happiness of course :)
I want you guys to fix the end of good wife
They would have to fix the last two seasons, and parts of season 5. Considering they would have on board the same person who was a big part of screwing them up (JM), seems unlikely.
I wish she appeared at least one time on the good fight it would’ve been amazing just to see Alicia for 10 min slaying
You should have come atlest for 2 episodes for fans also ....am from India I loved ur good wife series so much
is the right decision not to do it in season 1, but now season 2 coming, hope she can comeback for one episode.
So....we aren’t gonna talk about that awkward audience reaction when she threw (deserved) shade at Leno?
No? Oh, okay😆
Haha well the audience is French, this was in Paris, so this audience doesn't know who Leno is (or Conan), hence the awkward reaction ;)
Such a gracious human being
That "gracious human being" chopped away at Archie Panjabi's role from the moment of becoming an executive producer. It was revolting. So petty she wouldn't even be filmed in the same set for that final appearance.
Happy birthday julianna from italian boy live in rome
She made a great decision ! Very hard I’d imagine cos I’m a fan of Alicia 😭😭
It will be a blessing for every fan if Will would come back in this show, not as a bitter memory in a photo but a real one, how about shooting some episodes of the former history between Will and Diane before Alicia had joined?
That might be possible for Will to be back. (impossible to expect him coming back as a ZOMBIE, even if I can accept). Because we also loved the tacit understanding between Will and Diane !
She can’t afford to buy the CBS package but we every day people are supposed to buy a package? Seriously!
Wish she would return so we could see where Alicia ended up after that slap...
Didn't she say previously that she wanted to get paid a lot like a half a Million per Episode which CBS thought was too much?
Yes, she did. Whenever she talkes about it tells a different version. She is full of herself and full of BS. Talented actress, but a meh person.
thanks so much
She’s right, it’s their time now
I love her sm
right decision . it would have just been another season of the good wife if she was present
I love Julianna, it's rare these days to think and care about others, she knows to speak and express herself.
She is very good acter. I like Julianna as Alicia Florrick.
Come on Julianna, change your mind!
For me it won’t be the same without Alicia 😭😢💔
She deserved so much better
I just wanted a Happy or a better end for the good wife, so guys fix it 😢
She was just slapped , Jasson disappears , her kids left for school , and She will get divorced with Peter it’s all of that fair for her ?💔
I love this show it will be always my favorite, thanks Alicia, she made me feel identified and she always did her best to overcome herself and not give up ... she deserved a better ending🤷🏻♂️😢
I loved The Good Wife. And when The Good Fight came out I would have loved to have the Alicia character appear in some of the episodes. But in hindsight (The Good Fight has since ended its run), the character's appearance would have diminished or been a distraction.
i love to see her in the good fight
Kilinda was the best
Yeah right. True reason she declined to comme in the Good Fight was because of the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Not enough, according to her.
She not being in The Good Fight is the best thing that happened to that series.
THANK YOU. Would hate to see her turn spiteful toward any actor on the new show like she turned on Panjabi.
God ,even in real life she sounds up tight.
FROST Manz so? Just because she isn't what?...average like or talk openly or act like a bimbo she is uptight? She seems classy to me and I find that better than the alternative
FROST Manz your comment is very disrespectful to her, what she’s saying is right, now is the time for the other characters to grow.
Wait, they wanted her on the spin-off? Ugh. They're so much better off not having to work with her; vastly reduces the odds of having to let go one of the best members of a cast simply because the high-and-mighty JM decides to take a dislike to her.
I loved Alesha ,Elsbeth, Klinda and Lucca.Oh and let's not forget about Jason,I hoped they ended up together.Peter and Will were asses!
I watched the good wife for Will, Kalinda, Diane,Elsbeth, and Cary.
would have been cool just to see what happened to Alicia and her story may be at the beginning of season one just finish her story off with a happy or sad ending would have been cool then carried on with Diane's story
Very noble and kind of her.
I thought JM always felt that The Good Wife had good writers… So the writers could have done a great story on The Good Fight as well. I’ve also heard that it was about money. JM should have done it for the fans. If she hadn’t had fans; she wouldn’t have had a show as long as she did
Glad she dropped the 'sexist' argument, seeing as Eli Gold _also_ wasn't going to be paid enough to appear, sadly.
good for us!!!
ANA well ok
If you cant stand her you dont need to watch this vid ...
Maybe ANA just hates the character of Alicia and not Julianna Margulies in particular.
ANA speak for you! She’s is an amazing actress, hope in the future she can come and make 3 or 4 episodes.
I'm glad she's not in it... what torch is she talking about?... personally I miss Eli, Will, Carey..... to concur with @Michelle Mae Simplicio
. It was the whole ensemble that made The Good Wife such a great show... I don't accept the Jay Leno analogy!
Alicia's getting older than Miss Lockheart...
7BlackJack8 damn, women can never win. They either get blamed for getting old or for using plastic surgery. Or both.
Wait a few seasons she will be back for a cameo, I want to see eli first! Come on Alan!
Liar!!! She didnt do it because she wanted so much more money which was waaaaay out of budget for a streaming show !!
She's so phony! They say that you wanted more MONEY. Is that true?
ngl I got click baited
Bla bla bla. They didn't offer enough money for these 3 episodes. But her explenation is nice.
That's when you know an actor/actress is successful enough that she can afford to decline roles.
1:30 lmfao
NOOOOOOOOOOO WHYY
in other words the money wasn't enough.
A. Inai another sad excuse. We're you there? Then please do us a favor and shut up. Why even talk shit about her? I think she made the right choice. If it was about money I'm pretty sure another shitty person would've came out with the story by now. So no that's just in your head. I'm so done with the comment section I can't stand to see what humanity is
I hope she changes her mind and came in The good fight!It could be a big surprise!
Bullshit, she declined because she demanded a leading cast member level of money because it's a spin off of her show and they said no, you get a guest star rate like everyone else and she said fuck you.
She exudes narcissism.
Moderator looks like John Krasinski with beard...
Wonder how her character would came back as. A disbarred lawyer working for her boyfriend.
Good grief this woman's pontificating and faux self-effacing cadence is annoying as all heck!
Worst character ever.... Very poorly written... And the level of acting was awful...
Thankfully that you did not show up in TGF. I could not stand you in TGW.
Huh i'm sorry but when people say "if u hated Alicia why were you watching the good wife then?" I think it doesn't make much sense 'cause, personally, after a while, i hated Alicia too and i watched the show anyway for the others characters like Carry, Diane, Kalinda of course, Eli, Marissa... i mean yeah she was the Main character of course but i still was enjoying the show for those others characters and the lawyer side of this show.
She is so nasty and entitled. Why should CBS send her anything. She brought down that show towards the end - hence the end slap being justified by the writers - with her reputation. I do not want to see her again. She got far too big for her boots
Agreed. They should never have given her that EP title; she abused it to chip away at one of the best supporting characters just because she had some and identified issue with the actor portraying her. Small-minded, spiteful woman.
i doubt she was asked.
she wouldn't say that if they really didn't ask her. it would backfire in a worst way. that would be dumb.
it might or they might have had an agreement that she could claim that. I think the Kings wanted to keep going but without her so they closed down shop and opened up again.she wouldn't even film in the same room with one of her co-stars for goodness sakes.
Oh wow. Is this speculation or were you there? Do you have insider information? Like anyone would say something like that on camera where it can be seen by the Kings if it weren't true?! Yeah right. This is exactly what I was talking about with a friend...people like you why do you choose to be negative towards a woman you don't even know? I think she was great in The Good Wife and I wish her all the happiness and success for years to come. I can't wait to see what she does next
of course this is speculation! I am so curious though as to why she wouldn't film in the same room as her costar. I don't wish her unhappiness or lack of success. She'll be fine. I do think the Good Fight is excellent and her being in it would have made it, for me, less excellent. And as for her saying this in public on video - Hollywood stars make deals all the time with producers/directors/writers/showrunners. Who knows - maybe she needed to save face. Maybe the Kings invited her out of courtesy knowing she would say no. The whole wouldn't film with Archie Punjabi niggles at me - they barely had any scenes together the last few seasons which had been one of the highlights of the show. Punjabi wasn't famous enough to have demanded that lack of togetherness - that is all on Margulies. I'll just continue enjoying The Good Fight. But I hear you. I hear you.
@@middlemarie7033 you are sweet for not wishing her any unhappiness or lack of success. Seeing how she treated Archie Panjabi, I have no problem hoping JM flops.
She didn’t come because there was too many blacks.
The Good Fight started off strong but eventually went off the rails. I stopped watching.
I really like Christine Baranski she’s a great actress..but all that lesbian stuff from episode one in “fight”..was just too much for my taste..
Sorry it's so hard on you to coexist in a world where some people aren't straight. Good luck with that.
1:30 lmfao
Kind of glad she's not been in it yet, it's too soon. But I'd be happy to have her come in for an episode or two in a later season.
Totally agree with you.
Yes, a cameo at the end of the show and some suggestions on how her life turned out would be really really nice. The ending of The Good Wife was so ambiguous.
No, no, wouldn't want the potential for her to get into some petty squabble with somebody and ruin one of the best parts of a project again.
