Renée Elise Goldsberry

And the supporting cast, as in all Robert and Michelle King shows, only adds to the riches.

Renee Elise Goldsberry, who played Angelica Schuyler in Hamilton, plays one of the new firm's major in-court adversaries.

Also in court, a rotating series of judges, each with his or her own amusing quirks and personalities, and they're played over the course of the series by the likes of Peter Riegert, Danny Burstein, Jackee Earl Haley, and Jackie Hoffman.

And behind the scenes on Cupertino, the art direction is dazzling.

Uh, Ella Stiller is the ingenious aide de camp, that's Ben Stiller's daughter.

Busy Philipps, a flamboyant investor, and Renee Elise Goldsberry as an opposing counselor who has a history with the, uh, you know, the other, the other attorney, the guy on the other side.

They've had a romance.

It looks so good.

Yeah.

A- and it looks like from what, uh, from the trailers, uh, it seems that, uh, Renee Elise Goldsberry, uh, AKA Geneva Pine-

Mm

... is going to be showing up on this show.

Here comes the president.

Here comes the president.

Uh, it was just like, this is wild for so many different reasons, right? Because, you know, for those that don't understand the references that we are referencing as we're talking about him, Christopher Jackson and Renee Elise Goldsberry, AKA Geneva Pine, are both original cast members of, uh, a little show you might have heard of called Hamilton.

Mm-hmm.

He listened to the pod.

You and Goldsberry laid it out for him [laughs] very clearly.

Yeah.

It was a great offer.

Yeah

... yeah, that doesn't seem like there's a consensus for, uh, for that one.

And then I talked about this a little with Goldsberry, but Rookie of the Year, Boozer is the favorite.

It's Boozer, Wilson, Peterson, and Dibansa are all three to one, four to one range.

He left in his will very specific instructions, Burrell said, when we meet in the hushed hotel restaurant over breakfast.

Along with covering the cost of the suite at the Amman, New York, Creel had planned explicitly and generously for everything down to room service.

It was life-changing.

A Lexapro prescription to manage the anxiety she had long suffered from also helped, she said.

Her co-stars became dear friends.

Several, like Goldsberry, appear in the sweet and funny video for Still Crying, a Patsy Kleines pan.
