On Friday we announced that Rose Leslie would be starring in The Good Wife spin-off, The Good Fight, as a lesbian character. Today, we were blessed with a first look at the new CBS All-Access series, and it's packed to the gills with Rose Leslie perfection, including a kiss with her character Maia's lawyer girlfriend (played by Helen Yorke). We're not saying that based on this teaser The Good Fight (starring Christine Baranski and Cush Jumbo) is officially our new favorite show ever - because that would be premature - but we're also not not saying that. Check out the first look here to heartily agree:
What a glorious 30 seconds. Looks like Rose really will be taking front and center in this series, so we'll be tuning in passionately. And yes, you do recognize her as Ygritte ("You know nothing, Jon Snow") from Game of Thrones. We're pretty sure things won't be quite as intense on The Good Fight as they were in her Wildling days, but it looks like there's still going to be plenty going on sans an Iron Throne.

Well, there you have it. Roughly 90 percent of what there is to look forward to in all of 2017 is Rose Leslie in The Good Fight, and that's enough for us. We officially can't wait.
