Spitzer, the series
CBS has a new show on its schedule called The Good Wife -- but they could have probably called it Silda. Juliana Margulies (of ER fame) plays the lead character, whose politician husband resigns over a sex scandal.
The producers come right out and admit they've been ripping from the headlines -- and that shot from the show (on the right) is basically a recreation of the infamous Spitzer press conference.
Of course, this being TV Silda's Margulies' character's husband goes to jail, she joins a law firm and touching life lessons are learned. We can only wonder if her husband runs for office again.
And yes, she does slap him when he apologizes.

I now totally have my Halloween costume. I am going to be Spitzer's wife. Because it's now on tv, it's perfect. Besides, word is Captain Hammer is taken.
