    Her detective show is one of the most pleasant, delightful shows I've seen on network TV in over a decade.

      Exactly. It's a fun ride every week with more than a few silly chuckles in the mix. It's a nice escape and a bit of a throwback to the more fun network TV shows of the 70's & 80's.

    I love these celebrities who somehow don't let it go to their heads, and remain the sort of down-to-earth people who you'd want to be friends with.

      I would argue that Carrie is not a celebrity. She is an actor in the way that actors in the UK tend to be actors. For them, acting is a gig.

    She was so great in the Goods. You could never underestimate her, as she was often smarter than everyone else. Brilliant character.

    She’s so beautiful, sweet, humble, etc. I hope “Elsbeth” lasts a long, long time, and that she’ll eventually be in my road movie.

    Carrie Preston is one of my top five fave actresses ever! Elsbeth is prob one of my top two fave charecters on TV ever. I am so excited about the new show. Carrie's performance in anything she does is always worth watching. In previous shows, she's always left you wanting more from her character and I couldn't be more enthusiastic about a show centered on Elsbeth Tascioni. It's about damn time!!!!

    Very enjoyable interview, what a very nice lady Carrie Preston is.
    I've seen her on TV only a little since I only partially watched True Blood and the Good Wife, and liked her as an actress. Now, I'm gladly surprised by her as an actor and interviewee.

  • @robertcartier5088
    @robertcartier5088 Před 2 měsíci +3

    I'm pretty sure that when I first saw her as Elsbeth, on The Good Wife, I was likely recognising Carrie Preston from True Blood... But Elsbeth was such a strong character that, over the years, I had completely forgotten she was ever in True Blood until I saw an episode the other day! It's like if you asked most current fans of Robert Downey Jr. what his previous roles were before Iron Man! Indeed, Elsbeth is Carrie Preston's Iron Man! ;-]

    @gailjacobson7088 Před měsícem

    My kid brother's ex-girlfriend loved boiled peanuts, but she has a strong accent and with her drawl it sounded like she said "BALLED peanuts". Took a few minutes to realized that she had actually said "boiled". Until then I had never heard of them.

    Elsbeth was one of my favourite characters on The Good Wife! She was quirky & different. I watched the first episode of the new show & I liked. I was not expecting such a dark opening scene. I have to watch more to see if I'll stick with it but Carrie is fantastic though.
