Elsbeth Season 2 Finale: How About Some "Ramen Holiday" Sneak Peeks?

Check out sneak peeks of CBS's Carrie Preston, Carra Patterson, and Wendell Pierce-starring Elsbeth Season 2 finale, S02E20: "Ramen Holiday."

CBS and Robert King & Michelle King's Carrie Preston, Carra Patterson, and Wendell Pierce-starring Elsbeth is going all-out with its second season finale, with a whole lot of familiar faces making their musical returns for S02E20: "Ramen Holiday." While we're still going to have our updated preview running on Thursday, an occasion this important deserves a sneak peek or two (or four). That's what we have waiting for you below, along with the official overview, episode trailer, and official image gallery. But before we get to that, EP Jonathan Tolins recently offered some insights into what went into making the season finale happen…

Before checking out the preview for this week's season-ender, Tolins offered some insights into what went into making it all happen. "First of all, putting this together was scheduling Jenga, trying to get everyone's schedule to work. [Laughs] It was always going to be a big swing, and we didn't know if anybody would say yes," Tolins shared. We asked a few people who were unable to join us because of their schedule. We figured we'd get maybe five, but we ended up with eight willing and able. I was writing the script in a way with slots of different, 'Well, if we have this person, I could make it this way, if it were this person…' And it actually worked out really well. We ended up with more women than men, which was good because Elsbeth is in the women's wing in jail, and so mathematically, I was able to work it out."

The executive producer continued, "The two hardest parts were the scheduling and waiting to be granted the rights to use the "Cell Block Tango." We prepared as if they were going to say yes, and fortunately, in the end, they did, because we went a long way on a limb getting ready for it, and getting the number together. We built our own prison set that was a stage. And I think there was talk that people may want to take it over, that the owner of the stages might not take it down, so other people could shoot it. It's such a great, great jail set."
