- So much of what makes “Hacks” work is the chemistry between its two central characters, played by Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder. The HBO Max comedy hinges on the connection between these two seemingly disparate women So how did this pair find that connection? By lobbing insults at each other in the dark.
The very first interaction between comedians Deborah Vance (Smart) and Ava (Einbinder) in the pilot swiftly unravels into a sparring match. This moment was so pivotal to establishing the duo’s relationship that it became the audition scene for actors vying for the part of Ava. Watch as the the two discuss nailing the chemistry they captured in that first audition.

One of the best shows I’ve seen in a LONG time. Impossible not to binge.
Jean Smart will be a double Emmy winner for “Hacks” and “Mare of Easttown”!
I'm kinda worried both Jean Smart and Julianne Nicholson will both be nominated and that'll ruin their chances both.
Jean & Hannah may have the LEAST fake work-relationship in Hollywood and it's so MFing refreshing. Thank you ladies for being you.
SEASON 3! SEASON 3!!!! and 4 and 5 and 6!
_Hacks_ is one of the great surprises of the year. The JeanSmart-aissance continues & it's cool to see Laraine Newman's kid break through.
the Jeanaissance!
She’s Laraine Newman’s kid?!
Now I've actually learned something.
Hacks is brilliant dialogue, great humor and wonderful chemistry.
Loved it. I have never binge watched any entire series before this one. And I have no regrets. Hannah has her mom's (Laraine Newman) comedic chops. Jean and Hannah have mad chemistry. Cannot wait for season 2. 💕
I believe Jean Smart will be a double Emmy winner for “Hacks” and “Mare of Easttown “!
So refreshing as a concept, pithy characters, well written female roles and superbly performed, loved loved loved loved the whole Shabang! 🤩🤩🤩
I have been a Jean Smart fan forever! She is such a great actress and comedian.I would watch her in anything
Hacks is GREAT!! So happy to see Jean get so many good parts lately. I’ve been a fan forever!! 💖
I never really paid attention to Jean Smart until she played Lana Gardner on Fraiser. I wish I could have her scream "Kirby" as my ring tone. In any event, I knew she was talented but I didn't realize how talented she is until Hacks. Goodness. Wow - she's one of my favorite actresses now. She's so great that I honestly thought she'd done a lot of stand-up earlier in her career. I don't know if Hacks was originally written for her, but she sure makes it seem like it was.
Watch her in the HBO series Watchmen.
She’s incredible - I’m a fan now
The two of them work so well together. They are hilarious!
Jean Smart is a beautiful woman and I'd die happy just watching her read a phone book. She is incredibly dry and brilliant as Deborah Vance in Hacks which is a godsend for this Jean Smart stan(Smarties!).
Jean is one of the great comediennes - long before this - on Designing Women. Since that show, wow, she's just a phenomenal actress. Loved her in Fargo.
She was also hilarious in "Frasier" as his high school crush.
@@susans654 OMG yes I had forgot she was on that show. Yes she was hilarious 😂
Absolutely love this show. Jean Smart as Debbie Allen is astounding. She has great comedic timing and the kind of gravitas that brings this character to life, not to mention smart and beautiful to boot. You can tell that Hannah Einbinder is clever too, they have good chemistry together.
Jean Smart rules, I love that awesome 'older' actresses are getting great roles and kicking ass.
Hacks is amazing, Jean and Hannah are amazing, can not wait to see more of them!
I really enjoyed this first season and can't wait for the continuation! I do hope we can get a bit more actual standup comedy so we can really feel how Deborah's new show they're writing is different, rather than just giving one line and then alluding that is was better. 'Crashing' pulled off getting quite a bit of actual standup in the show, and I hope Hacks can do the same! :D
Found it, binged it, love it
Love this show! It is about 2 strong woman talking about things other than whether men think they’re pretty!
Yes! But jesus, what have you been watching?
Only one of the women is strong. Ava is weak as can be.
I pray for Ms. Smart and her loss, and beg for this comedy series to have seasons 3 through 10?! We need smiles and this show causes smiles. I'm on my 3rd benge watch of the 1st two seasons;).
Jean Smart is a fabulous actress! Love her.
Same people who made this show also made Broad City which was also awesome.
Every scene with Paul Downs (a showrunner on Hacks and Broad City, but also playing Ava/Deborah's agent) and Meg Stalter (his assistant Kayla) killed me. "I'm in the middle of a Me Too situation with Kayla and I'M the 'me'!"
@@jjsegal1915 His wife's (or girlfriend) directorial talent is top notch too.
@@fp5495 Yes! A brilliant duo. Long live Broad City.
great show and love me some jean smart!!!
I also enjoyed the show. I have been a Jean fan since I was a little girl watching Designing Women
I love this show!
I absolutely love HACKS ✨💖✨🥂🍿
It’s amazing how much Hannah looks and sounds like her mother.
Could’ve listened to them for hours honestly.
Love this sooooo much!
love this show, love!
This fantastic show plus Ted Lasso has given me hope that Television has stopped insulting our intelligence.
Wait until you hear about FBoy Island. 🤦
This show is so good.
Fabola! Love this show. More More More!
Great show. Dixie must be watching & giggling.
Hannah reminds me of Eve Plumb.
Plumb? Yes, I see that.
@@slimlouis6441 Yes Plumb. I corrected. Tx
People are so petty and sad. Hannah is great in this. Parents or not so I'm guessing her talent and chemistry with Jean is what booked her the role
I liked it. Jean Smart, great performance.
this is so cool and funny
Love Hacks
LOVE HACKS!
I love it ….
Hacks is great! I don't have to be a sarcastic b*stard. I can release it vicariously thru these two! They are much better at it than me anyway. 😉
Clickbait title without a payoff.
right? she got cast because of her parents
@@fun3nel2 I didn’t say that and I don’t agree with that.
But this video made a promise with the title on which it failed to deliver.
@@fun3nel2 who are her parents?
@@calumbest5570 Bill Murray and Gilda Radner
Hiii
Hii
pretty sure her mom being famous is what led her to book it
Pretty sure Jean Smart has some creative and/or executive involvement in this show, and who would be her main scene partner, and she certainly wouldn’t have been ok with casting someone because of who their mother is.
@@csmith5420 Really? Pretty sure Jean is happy to have a gig and will go with what the new comedic coolies say. This show is saved by Jean. I don't dislike "Ava" or the comedian who plays her. And, tbh, her Colbert appearance wasn't bad at all~! But, this Beverly Hills HS grad is truly the definition of entitled. And, this is a show that is also patiently pc. That pc "checking all the boxes" vibe kills comedy.
Jean Smart is brilliant. The other one? Meh.
Man hannah's character is the most annoying character ever on tv. I dont know if that's how she really speaks or if its the character. I hope that's her character arc... Annoying to tolerable. But decent show
It's boring, w mediocre writing, and actually funny rarely. Jean Smart saves the show every episode. She is a pro. I think the woman who plays Smart's daughter is very good.
