‘Elsbeth’

Network TV is having a moment, and Elsbeth is leading the charge. The CBS procedural, which premiered last year and returns for Season 2 tomorrow, October 17, is a spin-off of both The Good Wife and The Good Fight that follows Elsbeth Tascioni (Carrie Preston) as she moves on from her successful career as an attorney in Chicago to oversee a consent degree for the NYPD. Elsbeth is not a detective, but she’s not not a detective, either. Alongside Officer Kaya, Elsbeth uses her unique point-of-view and personality to corner criminals and solve a handful of murders. The episodes use a “howcatchem” structure, rather than a typical “whodunit,” so viewers always see who commits the crime and how it’s done before Elsbeth and Kaya are even on the crime scene.
