《傲骨贤妻》第七季第21集：剧终是铁了心要破罐破摔了吗？！

　　  　　《傲骨贤妻》剧终前倒数第二集S7E21于劳动节当晚播出了。然而在陪审团关于皮特是否有罪的裁决出来之前，观众们将屏息等待。

　　本集的前半小时过去之后，庭审的节奏似乎明显不紧张，我们不得不耐心观剧。但眼看距离收束全剧仅剩一集的时间，他们理应告诉观众裁决结果的吧，毕竟本集标题是“裁决”?骚年你还是太年轻。

　　本集结尾设定在皮特告诉艾丽西娅他准备接受认罪协议时，全然未显示陪审团裁决的进展。不过，蹲监两年总归比一开始的八年强那么一点点。

　　 　　然后，艾丽西娅的手机响了…一切都太晚了，陪审团的裁决结果已经出来了。

　　说真的。难道制作人罗伯特和米歇尔金就打算这么虎头蛇尾?虽然《傲骨贤妻》第七季与剧集最佳水平相差甚远，但充斥着怀念的绝响依然是剧终季的一大噱头。那些深受观众喜爱的客座明星的回归表演一直都让观众很欣慰，而且已经有好多幕精彩表演为朱莉安娜玛格丽丝第三次冲击艾美奖奠定了基础。可这倒数第二集着实有些不尽人意。

　　S7E21不是那种角色期待饱和、剧情即刻突变的剧集。“裁决”这集就是个恼人、俗套的闹剧。关于皮特是否定罪，完全没有一点迹象，根据结局预告片，观众能不能猜出结果还很难说。就算能，那艾丽西娅到底是守在皮特身边还是与杰森克劳斯开始一段新的罗曼史呢？

　　 　　以悬念开始，来拉下《傲骨贤妻》的帷幕会是个很糟糕的主意。《傲骨贤妻》的亮点一直都是法律程序下，复杂加剧的人物关系。最后几集里成为焦点的这一个冗长的大案无疑与整体剧风格格不入。根本就没什么律师方面的剧情。简直就是看一帮自作聪明的人应付这个突然被扒出来的头号丑闻，剧集反响真的很不好。

　　让我们走出法庭想点好事吧。毕竟《傲骨贤妻》剧组保证会在剧终大开挂。如果长久以来凭借出色剧本成为观众完美享受的佳作，这么毁了，就太可惜了。

　　5月8日下周日敬请锁定《傲骨贤妻》大结局。

　　The second to last episode ever of “The Good Wife” aired on Sunday night (May 1). Audiences held their breath during the entire hour of “Verdict” wondering whether or not Peter Florrick would be declared guilty or not.After the first half hour, it became clear that they would not be rushing through this trial, and we’d have to be patient as viewers. But there’s only one episode left to wrap everything up, so obviously they have to tell us what the verdict is in an episode titled “Verdict” … right? Wrong.The hour closed with a mic-drop after Peter tells Alicia that he will take the deal, instead of waiting for the jury’s verdict. After-all, two years in prison — which is down from the initial eight — wouldn’t be so bad.Then, Alicia’s phone buzzes … It’s too late. The verdict is already in.Seriously. Are creators Robert and Michelle King trying to go out on a weak note? Season 7 is far from the series’ best, but the swan song nostalgia factor has played a major role in keeping this drama captivating. It’s been amazing to see so many beloved guest stars from the past make appearances, and there’s been more than a few scenes for what could seal a third Emmy win for Julianna Margulies. But this second to last episode was just … disappointing.This wasn’t an on the edge-of-your-seat, dying-with-anticipation kind of episode. “Verdict” was an annoying, drawn-out tease. Nothing can be decided, or even ruminated about until Peter’s found guilty or not. Based on previews for the finale episode, it’s hard to say if audiences will ever find out. Or if we do, will Alicia stick by Peter’s side or go off and start a new romantic life with Jason Crouse?Ending “The Good Wife” with a cliffhanger would be a terrible decision. The show’s focus on all of its complicated relationships is what elevated it from being just another court procedural. The focus of this one court case in these episodes is a strange and unwelcome deviation from what made this show so great. It was never the lawyer stuff. It was watching an ensemble of intelligently developed characters deal with this ripped from the headlines scandal, and its very real repercussions.Let’s get out of the court room and back to the good stuff. Fingers crossed “The Good Wife” goes out on a high note. It would be a shame to see such a great series with such fantastic writing go sour after being deliciously entertaining for so long.The final episode of “The Good Wife” will air on Sunday, May 8, at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
