Indeed, Constance Wu, whose breakthrough role was in the ABC sitcom Fresh Off the Boat, recently appeared on the police procedural comedy-drama. The CBS show is a spinoff of The Good Wife and The Good Fight.
In “High Class Problems,” which dropped last month on CBS, “After a billionaire’s son dies in a motorcycle crash, Elsbeth investigates a wealth therapist (Wu) whose knowledge of her patients’ secrets led to murder.”
Wu was clearly thrilled to be a part of the show, taking to Instagram on April 30 to gush over the experience.
“I loved working on this show, especially since it’s set in New York!” Wu wrote alongside some shots of her in the episode.
In the comments section, series lead (and titular character!) Carrie Preston exclaimed, “LOVED HAVING YOU!!!”
Meanwhile, fans also loved seeing WU pop up on the beloved CBS show.
“Was so excited to see you in this episode!! So good!” one top comment read. “You were so good in this episode, another fan added. “Just watched the episode! You were amazing in it. Hope to see more of you on screen 🍿,” a third fan wrote.
