A recent Primetime Emmy nominee for her guest part on "The Morn- ing Show," the Oscar and Tony recipient headlines CBS' seriocomic "So Help Me Todd," premier - ing Thursday, Sept. 29. Harden plays Margaret Wright, whose legal pro- fessionalism contradicts the scruffier nature of her son Todd ("Zoey's Ex- traordinary Playlist" and "Pitch Perfect" alum Sky- lar Astin), an ex-private eye taking whatever jobs he can get. His help on a case prompts her to hire him as her investigator, and possibly to bridge the gap between them. "It's a lovely bubble that's floating right now," the pleasant Harden says of her career fortunes late- ly, "and it feels fantastic, but we know it will pop. What goes up must come down, and that's the life of being in this business — so when it's happening (on the positive side), I really cherish every mo- ment. It feels good." Harden asserts "So Help Me Todd" keeps the rules of the series game largely the same. "You have do it really fast," she reflects. "It's almost like theater." Marcia Gay Harden is perfectly legal in 'So Help Me Todd' The identity of the featured celebrity is found within the answers in the puzzle.
