Elsbeth S03E03 "Good Grief" Sneak Peeks; S03E05 "Good Fight" Reunion

Along with a look at this week's episode, we preview "The Good Fight" reunion between Elsbeth and Marissa Gold in S03E05: "Poetic Justice."


We've got a double dose of really cool updates for fans of EPs Robert King & Michelle King, and Showrunner Jonathan Tolins's Carrie Preston-starring Elsbeth to pass along. First up, we have four sneak peeks at S03E03: "Good Grief," as Elsbeth (Preston) takes on a "grief influencer" dealing with a dead husband who won't stay dead. Following the image gallery and overview for S03E04: "Ick, a Bod," we have our best look yet at S03E05: "Poetic Justice," with Elsbeth reuniting with Marissa Gold (Sarah Steele). Though fans of The Good Fight remember Gold joining Diane Lockhart's (Christine Baranski) law firm in Washington, D.C., her change in career places her back on Elsbeth's radar, with Gold now serving as a campaign manager for NYC mayoral candidate Alec Bloom (Ivan Hernandez).
