The stakes are rising on CBS’s hit series ‘Elsbeth’ as Michael Emerson’s character appears to be gaining influence and power – but the sharp-witted titular character isn’t falling for his charismatic facade.

In a recent Instagram post from the show’s official account, fans got a glimpse of the brewing tension between Elsbeth Tascioni, played by Carrie Preston, and Emerson’s character Judge Crawford. The post teases: “Michael Emerson is climbing the ranks… but Elsbeth isn’t buying the charm.”

The Instagram post suggests that as Judge Crawford climbs the ranks within the judicial system, Elsbeth becomes increasingly suspicious of his motives and methods. The winking emoji in the caption hints at the playful cat-and-mouse game developing between these two characters.

For fans of both Preston and Emerson, seeing the real-life couple square off on screen provides a rare opportunity to witness their professional chemistry in a new context. Their personal connection adds an interesting dimension to their performances, even as they portray characters who are at odds with each other.

Viewers can watch the latest episodes of ‘Elsbeth’ on Thursday nights at 9 PM ET on CBS, with streaming available on Paramount+.
