Stage, silver screens, TV screens – Jean Smart‘s acting career has spanned four decades, with a glittering trophy cabinet to prove it. From Designing Women and Frasier, to Sweet Home Alabama and 24, Smart is a versatile actor often drawn to comedic roles, most recently as comedian Deborah Vance in Hacks (for which she’s won three back-to-back Emmy Awards). And while Hacks is very good and has rightfully earned her praise, perhaps Smart’s best TV performance can be found in FX’s weird superhero series Legion, in which she played Dr. Melanie Bird.
