The Good Fight is brilliant, in some ways even better than The Good Wife, the original series from which is was spun-off. I don't know how they were getting away with some of the Trump stuff. Brilliant characters, strong women.
And also features one of the best ever examples in television of breaking the fourth wall, when Nyambi Nyambi's character Jay Dipersia gives a monologue that ends with him saying 'It's time to punch a few Nazis.' Hell, yeah!
"In the episode titled 'The One Where a Nazi Gets Punched', series lawyer Lucca Quinn (Cush Jumbo) and the firm's investigator Jay Dipersia (Nyambi Nyambi) are sent out of the city to a voting booth where a special election is being held. Their job is to represent the Democratic Party and to ensure that lawyers there to represent the Republicans aren't preventing questionable votes from being lodged. In the afternoon, a team of white nationalists dressed in red jackets (quite likely a reference to
yellow jacket-clad protesters in France) arrive to aid the Republicans in suppressing the vote.
The episode culminates in a scene with Jay in the men's room talking with the white nationalists organiser, who is very clearly modelled after white supremacist Richard Spencer. The organiser tells Jay, "I'm not an anarchist. I'm an agitator", prompting Dipersia to punch him out cold.
In a complete shift from the show's regular style, the episode breaks the fourth wall with a monologue by Jay. While this is in character, the scene can just as clearly be read as a position statement by the show on the issue of whether punching a Nazi is a break in one's moral code.
