A: Michelle Forbes ("Kalifor- nia," 1993) has been up to a lot since her spy drama "Berlin Station" ended in 2019, but all anyone wants to talk about is her involvement in one project, and it was just for a single episode. Earlier this year, Forbes appeared on an episode of the Paramount+/CBS series "Star Trek: Picard," reprising her role as Ro Laren, which she played for three years on "Star Trek: The Next Generation" in the early '90s. Thanks to the strength of "Trek" fandom, and "Picard's" habit of bringing back other fan-fa- vorite characters from "The Next Generation," that one episode got Forbes more press and attention than everything else she's done since 2019. That includes lengthy arcs on network shows such as NBC's "New Amsterdam" and ABC's "Big Sky." Michelle Forbes ON EPIX celebrityUpdate OF BERLIN STATION
