“I Don’t Think This Is Like The Avengers”: ‘The Good Fight’ Creators on Why ‘Elsbeth’ Isn’t Really a Spinoff

Every week, hosts Lesley Goldberg (West Coast TV editor) and Daniel Fienberg (chief TV critic) break down the latest TV news with context from the business and critical sides, welcome showrunners, executives and other guests, and provide a critical guide of what to watch (or skip, as the case may be).

This week, married showrunners Michelle and Robert King join us for their second visit to TV’s Top 5 as they open up about Elsbeth, the Carrie Preston vehicle in which the beloved actress reprises her role from both The Good Fight and The Good Wife. The Kings, however, don’t consider Elsbeth a spinoff but rather their attempt at making a modern-day Columbo.
