‘Elsbeth’ Release Schedule: When Do New Episodes of ‘The Good Wife’ Spin-Off Come Out?

Unconventional lawyer Elsbeth Tascioni (Carrie Preston) gets her own spin-off from “The Good Wife” franchise with “Elsbeth,” which premieres Thursday. The new series finds the title character in New York City, where she’s been appointed to shadow the local police on their investigations.

Instead of watching from the sidelines, however, Elsbeth is soon sniffing out clues — at times, literally — to question foregone conclusions. Is a college student’s death a cut-and-dry suicide? Not so fast, says the character, who is, naturally, proven right in the long run.

Here’s what you need to know about when and where you can watch it:
