CBS announced that it had signed on Lost alumnus Lestor Carbonell as a guest star for season 5 of The Good Wife on April 21.

The network stated that Carbonell will guest star as Daniel Irwin, "a charming entrepreneur who catches Alicia's eye" in the episode scheduled to air on May 4. While there is no confirmation if Carbonell will be taken on for a multi-episode arc or if he will only appear this once, Alicia's is interested in pursuing him, even if only for a one-nigt stand.

She will meet Irwin during jury duty and sparks will fly. It is being suggested that Alicia will turn to her more free-spirited mother, Veronica (Stockard Channing) for advice.

Josh Charles to Return for Episode 19?

In the latest episode Alicia did make it clear to her husband, Peter (Chris Noth), that they would stay married but only to help each other professionally, and that they were free to sleep with other people.

In the next episode, titled Tying the Knot, Alicia's "creepiest client" will return. Things will get curiously funny in the CBS legal drama as they always have when the client Alicia loves to hate returns with another case. Colin Sweeney (Dylan Baker) will be back.

Kalinda Next in Line to Leave Show After Will?

He has always caused trouble for Alicia and he will be doing that in episode 19. Judging by the promo it seems like Sweeney's back with a new wife, his third or fourth and Alicia's is wary about where this might be headed. Maybe the couple are looking to get a pre-nup signed. The last time Sweeney made an appearance on the show, Alicia had to deal with the case of his illegitimate child.

Episode 19 will air on CBS at 9 p.m. on April 27.
