‘The Good Wife’ Finale: Alicia and Kalinda Scene in Season 6 | TVLine 

fans feeling underwhelmed by Kalinda’s abrupt departure in Sunday’s episode will be heartened to learn that Archie Panjabi‘s short-skirted, leather-booted PI is poised to make the mother of all encores.

The Good Wife Season 7: Is Torchwood Actress the New Kalinda?

TVLine has learned that Panjabi — whose exit from the series was announced back in October — figures prominently in the CBS drama’s May 10 season finale. In fact, sources confirm that the episode, titled appropriately “Old Issues,” is poised to feature

Yep, barring any last-minute tweaks to the episode, “Kalicia” ‘shippers will get the face-to-face moment between Panjabi and Julianna Margulies for which they’ve been waiting nearly three years. And I hear it’ll be a crowd-pleaser — satisfying, heartbreaking, funny, etc.

And just as important as the dialogue exchanged between the characters is the

co-creator Robert King told TVLine that the decision to keep the two characters apart “is very much intentional to raise expectations,” adding that viewers should, “stay tuned.”

I’m so so glad to hear this. I would’ve been really disappointed if last night’s episode was Kalinda’s final one without having a face-to-face with Alicia one last time.

This should (but probably won’t) stop people from all of the conclusion-jumping that was done in the earlier story. It gets so tiresome…

I’ll believe it when I see it. I hope its true. It won’t make up for the stupidity of having them not share the screen together in almost 3 years, but at this point I’ll take what I can get.

I agree–it has been stupid. and it won’t make up for it. But I will take what I can get.

Will Cary and Kalinda have a more meaningful talk and a real closure?

I sadly doubt it as Archie Panjabi tweeted a picture of her filming last night’s scene saying it was the last time she worked with Matt Czuchry.

It’s a really shame. Alicia and Kalinda didn’t have any kind of relationship since season 4. Cary and Kalinda were always there for each other in the last year. I know it’s not going to end well for them but I don’t think that brief scene with them was enough to give them a proper closure.

Closure with Alicia over closure with Cary for me any day.

YES! ITA. Never really “fe’t” the relationship between Kalinda and Cary. The last few seasons with no Alicia-Kalinda contact has been sad … we so rarely get to see friendships between strong women.

I’m gonna laugh if things are edited in such a way that conspiracy theorists will claim Panjabi and Margulies were never together during filming of the scene. Think over the shoulder shots, but no face to face interactions.

That would be hilarious though. And add to the whole myth, you know? Great stuff.

And so we continue to be flat-out lied to. Alicia and Kalinda were kept separate since the middle of Season 4 because there was a serious issue between Panjabi and Margulies. I wish CBS/The Kings, etc. own up to this someday, somehow.

Did it really matter? Season 5 had Alicia siding with Cary and Kalinda siding with Will. I think it made sense that neither of them had much contact with each over. And then this season Alicia was so busy with her campaign that she didn’t have much time for anyone.

I’m sorry but i just dont belive it :( i’m afraid it will be edited like in the previous episode the”and florrick” scene. Or they are going to use green screen. Or cgi kalinda or something

this is exciting news! And to the conspiracy theorists, I think if both actresses weren’t on good terms, they would still both be professionals and do there job, so I don’t think that’s why we haven’t seen them together.

This is my favorite couple on TV so yes. I hate how they have not shared the screen since season 4

This makes me smile. Now I can look forward to the finale. Hopefully, the show will end on a high note, as this season has been uneven, at best.

“Is very much intentional to raise expectations” ………….. yeaaaahh rightttt

The setting of the scene is of course the bar!!! Can’t wait

It’s about d*mn time those two are in the same scene. Whatever the exact reason is, it’s still pure nonsense that they wouldn’t do a scene together earlier!!!

That’s the stupidest reason for keeping those two apart that I have ever heard – and it has caused the show to turn into a real stinker for the most part.

I think this shows obviously that as soon as soon as Julianna Margulies received Ex.Producer billing she refused to share the screen with the award winning Archie Panjabi who was easily the people’s favorite character on THE GOOD WIFE.

If keeping them apart was intentional by the Kings….I’ve lost all respect for their sensibilities on what holds the viewer’s attention and what they care about. None. Nada. Reminds me of the yokels who screwed up How I Met Your Mother.

I think it is amusing how many people are bothered by the fact that they have not shared screen time for so long. I have to admit that I don’t even notice it. The show is so well written, who cares if they are never in a room together?

Their night outs were full of amusing conversation & just plain fun. Very relaxed compared to all the drama.

And abrupt is definitely was even though we knew it was coming.

I felt disappointed that they reduced her departure to a few moments and goodbyes in the third to the last episode of the season.

That said- Kalinda was caring and loyal to Alicia, Cary and Diane and her goodbyes were fitting for her . I like that they even went back to her apt where here money was stores in the wall . But why leave the hairbrush?

As excited as I am for this, I wish we’d get a final Cary/Kalinda scene too. He looked so devastated when she left. I love them together, dysfunctional as they may be, and I hope that she comes back for the series finale, whenever that is, so they can end up together.
