Carrie Preston

from Really Famous with Kara Mayer Robinson · host Kara Mayer Robinson and Carrie Preston

It's Elsbeth from The Good Wife! And Arlene from True Blood. Even if you don't know Carrie Preston by name, odds are you know her from TV. The prolific character actor also writes, directs and produces. And fun stuff! She's married to actor Michael Emerson, a.k.a. Ben Linus on Lost and Harold Finch on Person of Interest. We talk about why friends call her tenacious, how she felt when her husband landed a gig on her fave TV series, juggling film sets, scripts and life while going back and forth between NY and LA—and we get REALLY into talking about our favorite TV series and the very best series finale of all time.
