Talk:The Good Fight

Criticism

I have added a criticism section, since there are takedowns of this episode and many mentions of it in the conservative media, as well as dismissals of these objections in the left-oriented media.

The April 10, 2019 episode included the following themes:

 - Glorification of antifa type organized doxxing.
 - Glorification of political violence.
 - Encoding of the red jacket (see Fr. right wing yellow-jackets) as a racist symbol.
 - Voter ID laws as a manifestation of crypto-fascism. 
 - So on. 

Notably "It's okay to punch a nazi" thing has been a slogan of organized left-wing violent movements like antifa for some time and the discourse of it as a theme included segments on Bill Maher, Reason Magazine's man-on-the-street interviews noting with some alarm that advocacy of political violence was rising among US students. 96.59.126.42 (talk)

These are highly subjective and personal issues you are having, at the very least referring to the source you've used as a "guffawing opinion piece" is not the neutral tone required for wikipedia. Especially your assertion of "violent organized left-wing movements", which is itself a common conspiracy. I'm sure you thought this was clever, but there is literally no way to do what you are trying to do without demonstrating clear bias. If you can figure out a way to espouse far-right American idealism without bias, perhaps you can take another stab at this. 174.112.35.131 (talk) 10:55, 4 September 2021 (UTC)

• The Good Fight → The Good Fight (TV series)
• The Good Fight (disambiguation) → The Good Fight

– There are two albums of the same name by Bizzle and Oddisee. Albums are a different subject, so this is not the primary topic of all subjects known as "The Good Fight". 2601:8C:4001:DCB9:A048:C7CF:F614:250D (talk) 00:28, 11 July 2017 (UTC)

Checking WP:PTOPIC states that a primary topic can be a topic which is "much more likely than any other topic, and more likely than all the other topics combined". Cheking the page views for eachof these pages it seems (more than) likely that this is the primary topic. (t) Josve05a (c) 01:39, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

• Oppose I would say unless the other two articles on albums are getting a similar number of hits as the TV show, leave this article as is i.e. do not perform the moves. —Joeyconnick (talk) 01:54, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
• Oppose based on pageviews there is a clear WP:PRIMARY topic.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:54, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

Title sequence

This show has a beautiful title sequence, I think it might be worth including some information under the Production section. Watching season 3 I realized the title credits were slightly different each year (EW.com). In a 2007 interview visual effects supervisor Lawson Deming, of Barnstorm VFX explained how the title sequence came about. I'm not going to add it yet, but if anyone has more sources, or wants to go ahead and add something then please do. -- 109.76.241.233 (talk) 23:05, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

About the lead section

Is it really necessary to include the third season information and the exact dates (date precision) on the renewals of the fourth and fifth seasons on the lead section? They are all on the body section already. — YoungForever^(talk) 16:27, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

Definitely not. I trimmed the lede to avoid using too much information and specifically dates, but it was reverted today by another editor. The edit summary referring to me, "another editor that was misinformed," does not address the changes. -- Wikipedical (talk) 16:49, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

I've tried communicating with the editor on his talk page, to no avail, and commented at the ANEW report. Three days is far too long for no action so I've requested at WP:AN that an admin take a look. --AussieLegend (✉) 16:57, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

User:DJTonyPrep, the lede is supposed to summarize and provide an overview of the article as a whole per MOS:LEAD. However, none of the information you're still inserting and reinserting (production halt due to COVID-10) is noted anywhere else in the article. Perhaps it would be valuable to include that information about season 4 in a production section first. Also, why must you continue to edit war even after being warned numerous times? You're just going to get blocked again. Please discuss on a talk page instead of in your edit summaries. -- Wikipedical (talk) 17:52, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Since that is what is usually in the lead section of most TV show pages, I would say yes. This is on par with every other tv show Wikipedia page I have seen, and I would be happy to cite examples if that is necessary. -DJTonyPrep — Preceding unsigned comment added by DJTonyPrep (talk • contribs) 17:55, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Incorrect, I recommend taking a look on good TV series articles (marked on top right corner on those articles) which do not include excessive details on the lead section. Your argument of WP:OTHERSTUFF isn't a valid reason. — YoungForever^(talk) 18:08, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

No...correct. Look up The Last O.G. I see multiple sets of dates listed in the lead section, for EVERY season. Give it up because you are not convincing anyone. And as such, your feedback will not be taken under advisement. -DJTonyPrep DJTonyPrep (talk) 05:00, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

Incorrect again. Your I just don't like it behavior isn't going to work here. Good luck trying to convince everyone that excessive details (which are in the body sections already) are appropriate on the lead sections. In addition, this isn't much of a discussion when you are still demonstrating "I do what I want and other editors will just need to acceptable it" attitude. — YoungForever^(talk) 06:57, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

I should note that DJTonyPrep has blanked this discussion twice today.[1][2] --AussieLegend (✉) 12:30, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

Original network

How does CBS qualify as an original network for the series? Encores of S1 aired on the network two whole years after its release on CBS All Access. And while the series did premiere its pilot on CBS, it was only a promotional strategy to draw viewers to watch the series on All Access. Is this significant enough to be listed in the Infobox? Sunshine1191 (talk) 05:53, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

CBS isn't the original network. The only original network is CBS All Access. — YoungForever^(talk) 17:26, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

Eli Gold

I notice Alan Cumming (playing Rli Gold, Marissa’s father) isn’t on the list. Any particular reason? Dramyg1 (talk) 18:37, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
