We spoke w/ the creators of TheGoodFight, RKing618 & Michelle King, about finding the right time to end the series, and bringing back favorite characters for the final season.
From creators Robert & Michelle King, the sixth and final season of The Good Fight sees Diane Lockhart feeling a bit adrift and turning to an alternative form of therapy to help her find balance. With new blood at Reddick & Associates in the form of Ri’Chard Lane , Liz Reddick’s authority on uncertain ground, and the feeling that the country has rolled back its last 50 years of progress with the overturning of Roe v.
MICHELLE KING: Thirteen years? No. We were wondering if it could go 13 episodes, so to go 13 years is more than we could have ever hoped. I would say that there is an ambivalence. On the one hand, I’m sad to say goodbye to these characters and the chance to tell these very topical stories. But on the other hand, I’m aware of how many shows are canceled without the creators having an opportunity to bring the stories to the conclusion they want.
I’ve talked to showrunners who have told me that they knew, from day one, the way their show would end and that they even pitched that ending when they pitched the show to networks. When did you know how this show would end? Did you have any sort of final moment in mind?ROBERT: Because it is reactive, we didn’t know what we were about until we went into this year.
Diane and Liz are fantastic characters and watching just the two of them would be enough. But then, in this last season, you bring in the character of Ri’Chard and Andre Braugher, who is just so brilliant. How did that come about? On top of that, you also brought back Eli and Elsbeth, who are a couple of the best characters that have been on the show. What is the joy of getting to bring characters like that back for the last season?
