Elsbeth Season 3 Look Includes S03E06 Preview: Judge Crawford's Widow?

We've got previews for Elsbeth S03E04: "Ick, a Bod," S03E05: "Poetic Justice," and S03E06: "Bunker Down," and an update on guest stars.



Article Summary

  • Get previews for Elsbeth Season 3 Episodes 4, 5, and 6, including major plot twists and new mysteries.
  • Elsbeth faces Judge Crawford's widow in S03E06 and investigates a high-security panic room disappearance.
  • Guest stars this season include Tony Hale, William Jackson Harper, Annaleigh Ashford, and more.
  • Upcoming storylines feature a haunted Halloween rivalry, poetic intrigue, and a pop star's convent-turned-studio.

Typically, we wouldn't run another preview for EPs Robert King and Michelle King, and Showrunner Jonathan Tolins's Carrie Preston-starring Elsbeth immediately after a new episode aired (like tonight, for example). But we've got some big updates to pass along that we couldn't wait to share. To go along with the images and overviews for Oct. 30th's S03E04: "Ick, a Bod" and Nov. 6th's S03E05: "Poetic Justice," we have an official overview and image gallery for Nov. 13th's S03E06: "Bunker Down." Along with the fact that Tony Hale (Arrested Development) is guest-starring, the other headline grabber is that Elsbeth (Preston) is going to have a face-to-face with Winnie Crawford (Henny Russell)… Judge Crawford's (Michael Emerson) widow.

Speaking of guest stars, Deadline Hollywood reported exclusively that Lindsey Normington (Anora), Jaime Pressly (My Name Is Earl), and Andrew Rannells (Girls) will appear this season. In S03E07, Normington's Alaia Jade is a sensitive pop star who buys a convent in hopes of turning it into a recording studio. The mother superior (Dianne Wiest) has other ideas. In S03E09, Pressly's Tiff Giles was once a top model but now works as a bartender at a dive in Pennsylvania. When her old roommate from the "model house" where they began their careers invites Tiff to a reunion and photo shoot, Tiff returns to New York for the first time seeking closure… and revenge. In S03E10, Rannells's Harris is a former dancer who sits on the board of a prominent New York ballet company. When the company abandons its traditional "Nutcracker" for a childless, avant-garde version — thus denying Harris's daughter the starring role she's dreamed of — Harris leaps into action.
