For almost a
year, the people of the critically-acclaimed and popular CBS drama, “The Good
Wife,” kept a secret, one so powerful that viewers were shocked by the
abruptness of what happened on screen, March 23.
Will Gardner
(portrayed by Josh Charles), one of the major characters, was killed by his
client during murder trial. Within seconds, even before the show’s conclusion,
viewers were texting and tweeting, shocked and confused and angry and upset and
sad, all at the same time. There was no hint in the entertainment media that
Will would be killed off.
