ELSBETH investigates a death on the set of a police procedural on the Thursday, December 19 episode, “Toil and Trouble.”

“[Guest star] Laurie freaking Metcalf is what delighted me the most!” series star Carrie Preston, who plays Elsbeth, teased to Give Me My Remote via email. “We had worked together one other time (on GETTING ON) but obviously she was a dream guest star in a season full of incredible guest stars.”

“That episode is very meta—a procedural within a procedural—and there were times when we were filming where I would grab a water or a pen and have to ask the prop master if it was part of the set or not,” she continued. “I wanted to portray Elsbeth’s wide-eyed wonder at the world of tv and her true admiration of the actors and crew. She is a kid in a candy store on the set of FATHER CRIME.”

An accidental death leads to an investigation into a Christmas-loving decor guru couple on the Thursday, December 5 episode of ELSBETH.

“The Christmas episode, it overlaps with SantaCon, which is something that people in New York know about,” ELSBETH showrunner Jonathan Tolins previously shared with Give Me My Remote. “Elsbeth has a surprising attitude toward Christmas this year because of who she is going to not be able to spend it with.”

ELSBETH: Carrie Preston and Wendell Pierce Reflect on Their On-Screen Dynamic and Season 2 Hopes

ELSBETH season 2

Carrie Preston stars as Elsbeth Tascioni and Wendell Pierce stars as Captain C.W. Wagner in ELSBETH, a new drama based on the character featured in THE GOOD WIFE and THE GOOD FIGHT. The show follows Elsbeth Tascioni, an astute but unconventional attorney who, after her successful career in Chicago, utilizes her singular point of view to make unique observations and corner brilliant criminals alongside the NYPD. ELSBETH premiers in the 2023-2024 season on the CBS Television Network, and available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+. Pictured (L-R): Carrie Preston as Elsbeth Tascioni and Wendell Pierce as Captain C.W. Wagner. Photo: Elizabeth Fisher/CBS ©2023 CBS Broadcasting, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

In ELSBETH’s first season, Elsbeth Tascioni (Carrie Preston) partnered up with the NYPD under a consent decree to help solve crimes—and weed out corruption. What her de facto boss Captain C.W. Wagner (Wendell Pierce) didn’t realize, at first, was that Elsbeth was also there to investigate him.

Eventually, Elsbeth was able to get to the bottom of the conspiracy—Wagner was set up—and the captain invited Elsbeth to continue consulting with the police department.

Though there was occasionally tension between the characters in season 1, the dynamic between Preston and Pierce is the exact opposite: The duo—who sat down with Give Me My Remote over the summer at TCA, days before they started filming the season 2 premiere—are warm and friendly, enthusiastic about their series (which returns for its sophomore season on Thursday, October 17), and very clearly big cheerleaders of each other’s work.
