Three Chicago and New York law shows where nobody ever crosses over, because no two of them were ever on air at the same time.
A plain chain, and unusually for this site there is nothing to interleave at any point, because no two of these shows were ever on air at the same time. The Good Fight starts nine months after The Good Wife ends; Elsbeth starts fifteen months after The Good Fight ends.
Seen some of these already? Tap the circles to tick them off. The full list below fills in as you go.
One hundred and fifty-six episodes. This is where Diane Lockhart, Lucca Quinn, Marissa Gold, Eli Gold, David Lee, Liz Reddick and Elsbeth Tascioni all come from.
Recommended rather than required. It is set a year after the other show's finale and its own encyclopedia entry calls it a standalone sequel: it re-establishes itself from nothing, so you lose texture rather than comprehension by skipping back.
You do NOT need the other two first. The creators have said it is a separate show and is not meant to focus on that universe. It is a self-contained New York procedural with a new job and a new supporting cast, and it is a perfectly reasonable place to start the whole thing.
Then what? Elsbeth is still running. No fifth season has been announced as of this writing. A new CBS legal drama from the same creators called Cupertino has been picked up and has no connection to this world that any source states.
A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.
Everything you tick is saved in this browser and nowhere else. An account is the only way to put your list on another device, and the only way to get it back if this browser clears its storage. It is free and it takes an email address and a password.
Sign in on your phone, your laptop, anything, and the same list is there, kept in step as you tick. Nothing to copy, nothing to remember.
All three are about this franchise and all three are for showing, not moving. The link and the picture open SagaList with that progress displayed next to whatever the person opening it has already ticked. The code is what a friend pastes into Compare below. None of them writes anything into anybody's list.
Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
Removes everything ticked here, in this browser. If you are signed in it clears on your other devices too. If you are not, there is no other copy and this cannot be undone.
Your email is confirmed and your account is ready. Everything you tick is saved on this device, as it always was.
Yours, on every device you sign in on.
Your SagaList account.
Nothing else happens until you follow the link. If it has not arrived in a few minutes, look in your spam folder and search for SagaList. It is sent from a no-reply address on our own domain, so there is nothing to reply to.
Both addresses get an email: the new one to confirm it, and the old one so that nobody can move your account without you knowing. Nothing changes until you follow the link.
Signing out leaves everything you have ticked on this device exactly where it is. It only stops it syncing.
This removes your account, your email address, and the progress stored on our side. It cannot be undone and we cannot get it back for you.
Nothing is charged and nothing is cancelled, because SagaList does not take payments. What goes is your account, your email address and the progress synced to our side. What stays is everything ticked in the browser on this device.
