ELSBETH: Jesse Tyler Ferguson to Guest Star

Jesse Tyler Ferguson will guest star on a season 1 episode of ELSBETH, Give Me My Remote has confirmed.

ELSBETH, a spinoff of THE GOOD WIFE/THE GOOD FIGHT WORLD, follows the title character (played by Carrie Preston), “an astute but unconventional attorney who utilizes her singular point of view to make unique observations and corner brilliant criminals alongside the NYPD. After leaving her successful legal career in Chicago to tackle a new investigative role in New York City, Elsbeth finds herself jockeying with the toast of the NYPD, Captain C.W. Wagner (Wendell Pierce), a charismatic and revered leader. Working alongside Elsbeth is Officer Kaya Blanke (Carra Patterson), a stoic and ethical officer who quickly develops an appreciation for Elsbeth’s insightful and offbeat ways.”

Ferguson will play Skip Mason, “the brilliant creator and producer of Lavish Ladies, a popular reality TV show featuring wealthy women and too much white wine. In his mad pursuit of ‘good TV,’ Skip makes some bad decisions that lead to resentment, blackmail, and murder.”

Ferguson previously guest starred on a 2021 episode of THE GOOD FIGHT—playing a different character. He’s best known to TV audiences for playing Mitch on MODERN FAMILY.

Preston revealed Ferguson’s role on the CBS series with adorable posts on Instagram and Twitter, sharing her joy over working with her “dear friend.”
