Christine Baranski

As Paramount+'s The Good Fight nears its final verdict, Christine Baranski reflects on her long-running role as lawyer Diane Lockhart — and the show that creators Robert and Michelle King made must-stream TV with a take-no-prisoners approach to politics.

Trilith Studios

Creatives who work at Atlanta's Trilith Studios can have a home there, too — and a school and a park and a place to grab a beer....

Paula Newsome

The actress revels in her role as Max, lab chief on CBS's CSI:Vegas, and the name she almost received at birth.

Niecy Nash-Betts

Finding projects that make her happy — and offer something new — is essential to Niecy Nash-Betts. The strategy is clearly working, because the actress-producer is everywhere these days. "Anything is possible," says the star–executive producer of ABC's The Rookie: Feds. "It's never too late."

Fred Armisen, Julio Torres and Ana Fabrega

"Otherness" creates togetherness on Los Espookys, HBO's mostly-Spanish-language horror comedy brought to you from Santiago, Chile, by three ingenious producers — two of whom have roots in SNL.

For fifty years, PBS's Great Performances has been giving all Americans access to the greatest of the performing arts. As Julie Andrews says, "You don't even have to go to the theater! It all comes to you."

Charlie Collier

The "power of broadcast" drives the former cable ace leading Fox Entertainment. And he'll be glad to tell you about it while he shows you around the lot. Fox's content creators are equally glad to have him. "Once he supports you," says producer Howard Gordon, "he's all in."

Tatiana Maslany

The actress gets to smash the patriarchy, among other objects, in her cheeky double role as your average attorney and the six-foot-seven She-Hulk. A Marvel exec exults of Disney+'s She-Hulk: Attorney at Law: "It's one of the boldest shows we've ever done."

Vera Farmiga

When Hurricane Katrina left a hospital without power, clean water and medical supplies for five long days, the staff wrestled with ethical challenges no one would choose to face.
