The Good Wife/Trivia

"Judge Charles Abernathy is none other than Russel Edgington."
 * Hey It's That Guy: Carol! Mr. Big/Mike Logan! Dan Rydell/Knox Overstreet! Henry/Miles Dyson! Frank Sobotka! The Man in Black! Et cetera! Et cetera!
 * There really are an awful lot of people from Baltimore working/living in Chicago.
 * Miranda Cosgrove guest starred in an episode about a teen starlet going off the rails. It talked about the Contractual Purity of the real-life Disney stars and how they generally have to smash that purity into bits once they turn 18 to get work outside Kids TV even if it's not who they are inside, poked at Sloan being a No Celebrities Were Harmed version of Lindsay Lohan, and managed to be an Actor Allusion since Sloan was dressed up in a way that made her look like a grown up version of Megan as well as one episode where Carly Shay dressed up as a punk rock chick.
 * Childs is the MIB from Lost.
 * Diane Lockhart was one of Meryl Streep's friends in Mamma Mia and is also Leonard's cold fish mother.

 * Peter Florrick is played by Mr. Big.
 * Elsbeth Tascioni is played by Arlene Fowler Bellefleur.
 * Alicia herself is Moragine La Fay from "The Mists of Avalon"
 * Kalinda is Jess's ditzy sister from "Bend it like Beckham" (Wow, Kalinda being a ditz, that's just impossible to imagine.)
 * In this universe, Bodie is still a smart-ass pawn. Likewise, Commissioner Burrell became a pastor (as did his son, Chris Bartlow), but he's kept his scheming ways. Cutty Wise, however, ended up on death row.
 * Between the ones above, Kima, Carver, Clay Davis, Rawls and Cheese it's safe to say that someone in the casting department is a "Wire"-fan.
 * Logan Huntzperger went into law rather than follow his dad into the newspaper biz.
