[미드] The Good Wife 시즌5보다가 멘붕 我都崩溃了!

<Spoiler Alert!  스포일 주의!>

굿와이프 시즌5 에피소드15보다가 멘붕. 그간 시즌4부터 밀려 있어서 차근차근 따라오다가 겨우 따라잡고 이번주 일요일 굿와이프하기만을 기다렸는데 너희는 내게 똥을 줬어! 

솔직히 시즌 5 초반부터 갈등이 격화되면서 미친듯이 재미있어진데다가 (특히 에피4 "hitting the fan" 은 정말......) 나는 도대체 나쁜남자에 끌리는 건지, 이번 시즌 들어 본격적으로 윌 가드너에게 홀릭하고 있던 와중이었다(다시 한번, 너희는 내게 똥을 줬어!).

나의 윌이 이렇게 허망하게 죽다니. 지금 내가 무엇을 보고 있는 것인지. 굿와이프 제작자가 미친 건지 내가 제정신인건지(훗) 정말 충격. 급히 검색 들어가니 충격받은 시청자를 위해 아래와 같은 방송을 내보내기는 했는데, 익스큐즈가 안 돼! 난 윌이 내적으로 성장하는 것도 보고 싶다고!!! 

여기에서 담담하게 말하는 조쉬 찰스는 또 왜이렇게 잘 생긴거야.

시리즈 제작자인 로버트와 미셸 킹이 이번 '사태'에 대해 아래와 같이 설명했는데... 이 사람들 너무 앨리샤에 초점을 맞추고 있었어. 오 댐...... 어이가 구만리 밖으로.....(해석은 혹시 내가 제정신을 회복하면)

We, like you, mourn the loss of Will Gardner. And while Will is gone, our beloved Josh Charles is very much alive and remains an integral part of our family.

The Good Wife, at its heart, is the "Education of Alicia Florrick." To us, there always was a tragedy at the center of Will and Alicia's relationship: the tragedy of bad timing. And when faced with the gut punch of Josh's decision, made over a year ago, to move on to other creative endeavors, we had a major choice to make.

We could "send him off to Seattle," he could be disbarred, or get married, or go off to Borneo to do good works. But there was something in the passion that Will and Alicia shared that made distance a meager hurdle. The brutal honesty and reality of death speaks to the truth and tragedy of bad timing for these two characters. Will's death propels Alicia into her newest incarnation.

Death also created a new dramatic "hub" for the show. We're always looking for these turning points--- some event midway through the season that will spin everybody's lives in new directions. These turning points keep the show from slipping into a numbing sameness, and keep the characters fresh: because you see how they react to a completely new status quo. Will's death in many ways becomes a hub for the whole series, violently spinning everybody in new directions.

Finally, we chose the tragic route for Will's send-off for personal reasons. We've all experienced the sudden death of a loved one in our lives. It's terrifying how a perfectly normal and sunny day can suddenly explode with tragedy. Television, in our opinion, doesn't deal with this enough: the irredeemability of death. Your last time with the loved one will always remain your last time. The Good Wife is a show about human behavior and emotion, and death, as sad and unfair as it can be, is a part of the human experience that we want to share.

Thank you for listening...and watching and caring and inspiring us to rise to the level of your passion and intelligence. There are seven wonderful episodes to follow this season and Josh will be directing one of them. We think you will enjoy them. It's not all tears -- there is comedy too. Michael J. Fox is back for four episodes. Dylan Baker. Dallas Roberts. Stockard Channing, as well as amazing new guest actors. And of course, Julianna does some of the best work of her life. Archie, Christine, Alan, Chris and Matt as well. Life does go on.

We've always taken as a guiding principle of this show that drama isn't in the event; it's in the aftermath of the event. We think you'll find that true of this episode. Thank you for your devotion to the show - we are continually grateful.

With all our thanks,

Robert & Michelle King
