Exactly! Reading the same question and the same answer in almost every interview with Matt and Archie is annoying.  For some reason, the writers seem reluctant to make Kalinda/Cary happen and I wish interviewers would stop putting them on the spot because they don’t want to disappoint Kalinda/Cary fans but don’t really have any answers.

I hate that in every interview with Matt Czuchry or Archie Panjabi, someone asks about Kalinda/Cary.

Because they don’t really know anything either so the answer is always “its possible.” Which isn’t really an answer but it’s the only thing they have to say.

I’m glad that throughout season 3, Kalinda’s ties to the community were strengthen.  That was mainly through Cary and Will: the writers showed that she has personal connections to Chicago.  However, I’m ecstatic that the end of the season showed a new bond forming between Kalinda and Alicia.  People can ship Kalinda with whomever they want but for me, Kalinda’s real relationship is with Alicia. Kalinda may open up to certain people but it is Alicia who gets under Kalinda’s skin. It is Alicia alone who cracks Kalinda’s shell.  As Blake said “It’s about Alicia, that’s what you care about.”  It was lovely to watch Kalinda be so protective and do so many things for Alicia in season 3 (finding Grace, protecting Alicia from the forged document issue during Will’s Grand Jury, willing to lie for Alicia in Alienation of Affection.)  I think Alicia is the only person that Kalinda actually goes out of her way to help.

The end of the season 3 was incredible because Kalinda and Alicia are not only friends again but Kalinda is actually opening up to Alicia, as she said she would.  One of the favorite scenes this season is when Kalinda and Alicia agree to start their friendship over. Kalinda’s simple “yes” to Alicia is so revealing.  Alicia is the only person that Kalinda would agree to open up to without hesitation and actually mean it.  Her face after Alicia leaves made me think that she didn’t even realize what she agreed to but she couldn’t stop herself from saying yes to Alicia.

Also in the finale when Alicia gives Kalinda the cheque and Kalinda says she’ll “take care of it,” that scene was a favorite of mine as well.  Alicia seems annoyed and disappointed by Kalinda is that scene.  Kalinda seems so desperate to reassure Alicia that the cheque is no big deal and she’ll be back. As a viewer, that seen alone showed me how much Kalinda wants Alicia’s friendship.  She saw Alicia pulling away from her again and she desperately and nonchalantly tried to assure Alicia that everything was fine.

Plus, Kalinda staying to protect Alicia was beautiful.  She would continue to run from her husband but she’ll stay, and face whatever comes her way, to make sure that Alicia is safe.

I am very impressed with the character of Kalinda, especially in the second half of this season.  She has been more willing to show emotion and open up to people but she has not lost any of her badass-ness.  Though Alicia was cold to Kalinda for most of the season, she seems happy to have Kalinda as a friend again (the way she looks at Kalinda in the second picture makes so happy!)

I’m excited for season 4, Kalinda’s relationship with her husband is apparently filled with love and fear.  And I can’t wait to see the new Kalinda and Alicia friendship.

I really want to watch an episode of The Good Wife with her.
