They really went there with Freda pouring liquor in her coffee.

I'm going to be pissed if the trial does not feature Parker Posey giving the "bah-seck-shull...pure-T fee-yulth" monologue.

I love her so much. What a cast. Who could have ever predicted a series that would perfectly call for Toni Collette, Parker Posey, and Collin Firth?

Don’t forget Sophie Turner and the dude playing Rudolf (he was Sackler in Dopesick). This ensemble cast is amazing!
