Jennifer Carpenter on The Good Wife - Details on Her Role

As we know Jennifer Carpenter (Deb Morgan) is coming to The Good Wife on CBS. According to E!Online, Jennifer plays a soft-spoken University Literature professor who is fired due to her conservative religious and political beliefs. Alicia ((Julianna Margulies) and Caitlin (Anna Camp) will represent her in the suit, and they'll be going up against Louis Canning (Michael J. Fox) and his firm.

The funny thing is, unlike her Dexter character, she won't be dropping one curse word, which the Good Wife team find very ironic. "We loved Jennifer in Dexter and we were especially thrilled to see her play such a different role: a committed believer who doesn't swear once," EP's Robert and Michelle King tell us.

Also, it's pretty amusing that The Good Wife airs Sundays at 9, which just so happens to be Dexter's timeslot over on Showtime.

Naturally, you cannot miss an episode of either one. So fire up the DVR! And stand by for more scoop from Jennifer Carpenter and what's coming up on Dexter.
