The Good Wife - Season 1 (2009) Watch Free in HD

Alicia Florrick, the disgraced wife of a scandal-ridden politician, returns to work as a defense lawyer in the first season of 'The Good Wife.' With her husband Peter in jail, Alicia is forced to leave behind the luxury of suburban life and relocate the family to an apartment in Chicago as she goes to work for college friend Will Garner. Gaining confidence every day, Alicia transforms herself from embarrassed politician's scorned wife to resilient career woman, especially for the sake of providing a stable home for her children, 14-year-old Zach and 13-year-old Grace. For the first time in years, Alicia trades in her identity as the 'good wife' and takes charge of her own destiny.
