The writers of “The Good Fight” were hit with online criticism this week for including a reference about Selena Gomez’s kidney transplant in a discussion about “cancel culture.” The fourth episode of the Paramount+ legal drama features a scene in which Liz (played by Audra McDonald) and a television executive (Wayne Brady) talk about what topics can be used for comedy.
