Will be upset if the do not put it on television

The Good Wife is my favorite show. I am so excited about "The Good Fight", but I will be angry if they do not put this on regular CBS. I do not think it is fair to make people have to sign up to CBS Access to watch a television program. I do not have cable, and do not like watching movies, or shows on my computer. Does anyone know if they will eventually put this on television? It sounds great, but if they only have it on this CBS access I will never watch it.

It really does sound like that CBS wants this show to be a All Access exclusive , but that doesnt mean that all episodes wont air on CBS at some point, but when is that point?, who knows. I could see maybe it being used as a summer filler show.

Yes, exactly. Thank you for the reply. Have a nice day

Seriously, CBS is going to use this show to drum up CBS AllAccess? It is going to fail miserably... I can't see many folks spending $10/mo per channel, particularly when they already have Netflix, Hulu and Amazon. This business model simply won't fly. Folks are already "cutting the cord" to rebel against $100-200/mo cable bills. $10/mo or even $6/mo per channel isn't going to make it...

You are right. I refuse to pay to watch television. Thank you for reply.

You don't have to watch it on your computer monitor :)

Some devices that CBS All Access (And other such services) work on:
* Roku set top box
* Amazon Fire TV
* Xbox
* Playstation 4
* Android phones
* iPhones
* Apple TV
* Chromecast (dongle that hooks into your HDMI port on your TV)

Or you could run an HDMI cable from your PC into your TV. :)

I'm not sure if it is worth it myself. $6/month for this, and they are only offering two things not available on broadcast TV: The Good Fight and the new Star Trek: Discovery.

I'm still thinking about it.... :)

I totally agree. If you're a patient person you can wait for it to come out on DVD. Then wait for your library to acquire it. Then wait in line to check it out. I just picked up Season 1 today.

1 year, 3 months. And now I can watch it at my convenience, no commercials, FREE!!!

I am very grateful for the wonderful library network in my area. Donate often and use it a lot!

This would never be allowed on cable tv. There is a lot of cussing with the big ones lol. I am a Trump supporter but still wanted to watch this show. Season 3 will determine if I will continue watching it. I love Luca and Colin, I think it is hilarious how they are making their parents be so completely backwards from each other. I love the clothes! I wish Elsbeth was more of a regular. I also love Marisa!
