Susan Misner Gets Screwed Over On TV A Lot
Who’s Suddenly Everywhere? The beautiful, vivacious, and charismatic Susan Misner! (Full disclosure: she is the friend of a friend, and we at PTV have met her on several occasions, including hosting her in our home for a screening of Nick Of Time, as one does.)
You Might Know Her From: Her recurring role as Jessica Arndt, love interest (since deceased) to Reese (Jim Caviezel) on Person Of Interest. Before that, she was probably most seen when she played one of the leggy ladies of the "Cell Block Tango" in the film adaptation of Chicago (her tale was first in the number -- you know: "Pop").
First Location Of Her Recent Campaign To Be Suddenly Everywhere: Making friends with Alicia (Julianna Margulies) as Simone Canning, wife to scheming lawyer Louis (Michael J. Fox), on The Good Wife.
Next Location Of Her Recent Campaign To Be Suddenly Everywhere: As Karen Waters, secret mistress to a young rabbi (Yuval Boirn) about to take over his father's congregation, on Blue Bloods.
Second-Most-Recent Location Of Her Recent Campaign To Be Suddenly Everywhere: As Jenny Hardy, chef sister to hero cop Ryan (Kevin Bacon), who gets kidnapped by a cult member seconds after we learn of her existence, on The Following.
Latest Location Of Her Recent Campaign To Be Suddenly Everywhere: Returning for the first time since the pilot in the role of Sandra Beeman, wife to FBI agent Stan (Noah Emmerich), in last night's episode of The Americans.
Where We Propose She Could Next Be Suddenly Everywhere: Susie (that's what we call her 'cause we know her, you guys) likes to work on shows that shoot in New York, and has already done White Collar, Royal Pains, and countless others that no longer exist. (Yeah, that was her as Gabriel Byrne's girlfriend on In Treatment.) Why not add her to Boardwalk Empire as a women's health advocate? If anyone on TV could use a real friend, it's Margaret Thompson (Kelly Macdonald).
