Fret not fans of ‘The Good Wife.’

The the legal drama had its curtain call last year after seven years on air, as such their were a river’s worth of tears shed when the final credits rolled.

However, in a rare move by network CBS, the story continues with official spin-off ‘The Good Fight.’

Due to debut on February 19th, the series centers on popular character Dianne Lockhart (played brilliantly by Christine Baranski).

Picking up a year after the events of May’s ‘Good Wife’ finale, the show sees Diane forced to start over at one of Chicago’s top law firms after a huge financial scam wiped out her entire savings.

She joins fellow ‘Good Wife’er Lucca Quinn (played by Cush Jumbo) at the company and sets sail on a whole new rollercoaster.

The first trailer whet appetites handsomely and now the extended sneak peek continues to pique interest. Check it out below…

‘Prison Break’ returns this April!

The smash hit drama has been off-air for seven years yet remained popular thanks to its cult-like popularity (and Netflix).

Much to the joy of viewers, FOX confirmed in 2015 that a revival of the Wentworth Miller led show had been commissioned. Officially billed as a “special event” series, it functions as the show’s fifth season.

The plot had been kept under wraps, yet all of that changed today when a brand new trailer was unleashed.

With Michael (Miller) once again behind bars in Morocco, can his clan (led by brother Phillip) get him out?

Cop a gander of Joe Jonas!

It may be wintertime, but the DNCE lead singer turns up the heat for GUESS‘ new promotional campaign.

Following in the footsteps of younger brother Nick Jonas, who cemented his pin-up status with a similarly racy campaign in his Calvin Klein‘s, the 27-year-old no doubt makes a bold beeline for those titillated by his sibling’s antics.

We really are in changing times; for years patriarchal society saw women objectified by (often fully clothed) men. Such is the climate today that men are doing the same for promotional gain. A lot can be said, but we’ll leave it at…interesting.
