“I don’t think the best finales wrap up all the loose ends,” co-creator Robert King said at a Tribeca Film Festival celebration of the departing CBS drama. "They are novelistic. And novels, sometimes there’s a little ambiguity, which is fun.” He paused, then added: “‘Fun’ is the wrong word. Resonant. You want a last episode that resonates.”

I think this is an indication that The Good Wife will leave at least one unresolved cliffhanger in its series finale. Alicia's romance with Jason; Alicia's pending divorce from Peter; Peter's legal issues; the future of the firm (Stern, Lockhart & Gardner). One of these storylines will be left unresolved at the very end of The Good Wife's original run; Tune in on May 8 to see exactly which.

I wonder why they are doing it that way.

I haven't been that thrilled with this season after last season was so awesome, but it's strange to think that the show is ending so quickly. I saw a picture on another site with a bunch of past guest stars (including David Hyde Pierce) and I hope that somehow they can fit them all into the finale. That would be so cool! I read that Will is supposed to return (read: Josh Charles), but it seems weird since his character is dead and has been since Season 5 so I have no idea how they're going to do that.
