Christa Miller, the veteran actress best known for her roles on The Drew Carey Show and Scrubs, has given fans a fresh behind-the-scenes glimpse of Apple TV+’s therapy comedy series Shrinking. On Tuesday, she shared a candid snapshot of the cast relaxing between takes with the simple caption “This should be the gang ✌🏼🍷.”

Caught Behind The Camera

Miller’s latest Instagram post was tagged #AppleTVPlus, #ShotoniPhone and #Shrinking, signaling that the image was captured on the fly by a cast or crew member’s iPhone. In the frame, Miller is joined by Jason Segel, Harrison Ford, Jessica Williams and Lukita Maxwell as they toast with wine glasses during a break. Miller credited her glam team—makeup artist Jenna Kristina, hairstylist Kiki Haircutter and stylist Allyson Fanger—and highlighted her own chic look: a tailored blazer from Linguafranca NYC over a casual Frances de Lourdes T-shirt, Laligne NYC pants, Belgian Shoes NYC loafers and jewelry by Jen Meyer.

One Big Therapeutic Family

This isn’t the first time Miller has invited fans into the Shrinking set. Back in February, she posted another group shot captioned “One big therapeutic family,” tagging #ShotoniPhone16Pro alongside Apple TV+ hashtags. That earlier image underscored the warm dynamic among the cast, which critics have praised alongside the series’ balanced blend of heart and humor.

Shrinking debuted on January 27, 2023, and follows a grieving therapist who breaks the rules by telling his clients exactly what he thinks. Miller plays Dr. Mabel Wiseman, who is navigating her own emotional journey while working at a clinic alongside Segel’s Jimmy and Williams’ Gaby. Ford appears as Dr. Paul Rhoades, the show’s senior psychiatrist whose mentorship drives much of the story. Maxwell rounds out the ensemble as Alice, Jimmy’s young daughter.

Filmed primarily in Los Angeles, Shrinking has earned positive reviews for its sharp writing and strong performances. The show was renewed for a second season in April, and fans have been eagerly awaiting more glimpses of the cast at work—making Miller’s latest post a timely treat.

While the photo itself is unvarnished—no set designers or cameras in sight—the relaxed mood speaks volumes. Segel leans in with a grin, Williams laughs mid-toast and Ford raises his glass with a subtle nod, capturing the cast’s off-screen camaraderie.

The mix of seasoned stars and rising talent gives Shrinking its unique spark. In interviews, Miller has noted how working alongside Ford has been both inspiring and grounding. “He’s generous on set, always making space for everyone,” she told Entertainment Weekly last year. That spirit bleeds into these candid snapshots, reminding viewers that even on high-budget shoots, actors find time to unwind.

Fans responded to Miller’s post within minutes, flooding the comments with heart and clapping emojis, plus requests for more behind-the-scenes content. Some even tagged friends as if extending Miller’s virtual toast: “Here’s to the best therapy session ever!” one user wrote.

As Shrinking continues its run, Miller’s on-set peeks offer a valuable reminder of the teamwork behind every laugh—and every heartfelt moment. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Miller’s work or tuning in for Ford’s return to streaming, these BTS photos bridge the gap between viewer and set, inviting everyone into the “therapeutic family.”
