CBS' 'The Good Wife' cancellation sparks Twitter frenzy

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 8 (UPI) -- Do all good things really have to come to an end?

The Good Wife fans are saying "no."

Fans were upset when it was announced that the popular CBS legal drama was coming to an end after seven seasons.

But they were absolutely livid to see the announcement being made during the Super Bowl.

They expressed their frustration and dismay with the hashtag #TheGoodWife on Twitter.

"I don't care who loses the Super Bowl now that I know we're all losing The Good Wife at the end of this season," wrote one series fan.

According to Us Weekly, the series' final nine episodes were promoted in a "dramatic ad" during the game.

Though fans are in shock, the magazine reported that the show's star, award-winning actress, Julianna Margulies already knew her fate.
