Television sensation Priyanka Chahar Choudhary is officially taking her next big leap as the leading lady of Ektaa Kapoor’s Naagin 7. The announcement was made during the Weekend Ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 19 on November 2, where her first look was also revealed — sending fans into a frenzy online. Dressed in a dazzling golden outfit, Priyanka’s powerful new avatar quickly became one of the most talked-about moments of the evening.

During the episode, host Salman Khan shared a playful exchange with Priyanka, teasing her about her Bigg Boss 16 co-contestant and rumored ex-boyfriend Ankit Gupta. With a grin, Salman asked, “Woh kidhar hai? Hai ya nahi hai?” — hinting at their rumored breakup. Priyanka responded with a shy smile but chose not to comment, leaving fans buzzing with speculation.

Priyanka and Ankit first captured hearts with their chemistry on Bigg Boss 16, sparking constant dating rumors. Although they maintained that they were “just good friends,” fans continued to ship the duo. Their recent decision to unfollow each other on Instagram, coupled with Ankit’s exit from their planned joint project Tere Ho Jaayein Hum, has only fueled talk of a split.

Now, with Naagin 7, Priyanka steps into one of Indian television’s most iconic roles, following in the footsteps of Mouni Roy, Tejasswi Prakash, and Surbhi Jyoti. Known for her versatility and charm, Priyanka is ready to enchant audiences once again — this time as television’s newest supernatural queen.

Abhishek Bajaj Gets Emotional on “Bigg Boss 19” Amid Personal Life Drama, Shared His Heart With Ashnoor Kaur

Actor Abhishek Bajaj, a prominent contestant on the ongoing season of Bigg Boss 19, is currently at the center of intense scrutiny due to accusations made by his ex-wife, Akanksha Jindal. The couple’s troubled past has come into the limelight, with Akanksha giving multiple interviews, making serious allegations about Abhishek, including accusations of infidelity. Recently, during a heated moment on the show, Salman Khan hinted at some drama unfolding, calling Akanksha a social parasite, which further fueled the ongoing controversy.

However, amid the tension surrounding his personal life, Abhishek was seen having a deeply emotional conversation with co-contestant Ashnoor Kaur in a recent promo, where he spoke about love, heartbreak, and the painful emotions that come with betrayal. In the latest promo of Bigg Boss 19, Abhishek and Ashnoor are shown sitting in a quiet corner of the house, away from the hustle and bustle of the ongoing chaos.

The conversation quickly turned personal when Abhishek asked Ashnoor if she had ever been in love. Abhishek, who has been through his share of emotional turmoil, responded, explaining that true love isn’t like the fairy-tale moments often portrayed in movies. He described it as a profound emotion that encompasses everything in life. Abhishek said, “I did. In love, you like everything. It’s not like in a movie, with music playing in the background. It’s actually love. The greatest emotion.”

Ashnoor, reflecting on his words, replied, “After a certain point, whatever a person does, they do it for love.” However, Abhishek’s mood shifted as he revealed the dark side of love—the crushing pain of a broken heart. While Abhishek’s conversation on Bigg Boss 19 was deeply emotional, it is impossible to ignore the ongoing drama involving his ex-wife, Akanksha Jindal. In recent media appearances, Akanksha has publicly accused Abhishek of being a cheater, adding fuel to the fire of their highly publicized split.

How Will The Drama Unfold In Bigg Boss After Amaal Called Tanya Mittal His Sister, Farhana Asked Her To Realise Her Worth

The atmosphere inside the Bigg Boss 19 house is nothing short of electric, with tempers flaring, alliances shifting, and tensions rising. Recently, there’s been a noticeable change in Tanya Mittal’s behavior, particularly toward fellow contestant Amaal Malik, leaving viewers wondering if their friendship could be evolving into something more or if Tanya is simply realizing the true nature of her relationship with Amaal. From the very beginning of the season, the pair shared a warm, somewhat sibling-like bond, with Tanya often showing concern for Amaal’s well-being.

However, things started to shift when Amaal Malik referred to Tanya as his sister in the house, an incident that left Tanya rethinking her stance on their relationship. A recent promo video has left fans stunned, revealing Tanya’s growing frustration with Amaal as Farhana is seen confronting Tanya, scolding her about her attachment to Amaal. Tanya then opens up about her feelings toward Amaal, making it clear that she is no longer willing to tolerate his behavior.

Tanya states, “The way Amaal screams and shouts, he doesn’t listen to anyone… and the person I want to be with isn’t like that… but rather someone who cares for everyone.” She reveals that Amaal never checks on her, never asks if she’s okay, and never seems to care about her needs. She says, “When someone doesn’t reciprocate, you can’t have such feelings.” She further admits, “Amaal’s entire comfort is with Neelam, that something happened to her. He thinks I’m sharp, cunning, and a gamer.”

Farhana Bhatt

Tanya’s frustration is evident, and it’s clear that the dynamics between her and Amal have shifted from friendly to distant, with Tanya no longer feeling the same connection she once did. In an attempt to snap Tanya out of her emotional entanglement, Farhana steps in with some tough love. She tells Tanya, “There’s a world outside of Amaal,” urging her to consider her own worth beyond her connection to him. Farhana even questions Tanya’s previous attachment, pointing out that she didn’t always view Amaal as a “brother” before, and she has now become someone completely different in front of him.

Pranit More’s Bigg Boss 19 Eviction: Health Issues Take Center Stage! | Glamsham.com

written by jummy84

In a shocking turn of events, this weekend’s episode of Bigg Boss 19 aired with the news of one of its favorite comedians, Pranit More, leaving the show. The audience was excited to see who would get eliminated on October 31, 2025. But as a surprise, instead of the usual elimination, it got announced that Pranit had been taken to the hospital after his health started deteriorating inside the house.

Sources close to the show revealed that the makers had initially decided to suspend the eviction process and focus on Pranit’s medical needs. The doctors suggested immediate attention be given, and the production team has been getting him properly treated. Though the initial plan was to shift him to a secret room — as is sometimes done in the Bigg Boss format — his condition reportedly did not permit him to continue, hence his official elimination from the reality show.

Since the news broke, fans of the comedian have inundated social media platforms with emotional messages and well-wishes, praying for his recovery. Several fans were disappointed with his untimely exit and termed Pranit one of the most entertaining and genuine contestants this season. Pranit’s humor, cheerful personality, and camaraderie with housemates had made him a fan favorite since the show’s premiere.

Though neither Bigg Boss nor the channel has issued any statement regarding his health condition, sources close to the production have confirmed that he is receiving proper medical treatment and will recover soon.

Gauahar Khan Slams Tanya Mittal For Body-Shaming Ashnoor Kaur In Bigg Boss 19

Bigg Boss 19 has been making he headlines for several reasons ever since it premiered on JioHotstar and Colors TV a couple of months ago. While several contestants have already been evicted from the controversial reality show, the remaining contestants are still managing to keep the hype around the show high with the fights, arguments, drama, romance and jokes.

Tanya Mittal recently began receiving severe online backlash following her body shaming Ashnoor Kaur in the show. While several celebs have spoken about the incident, actress and former Bigg Boss contestant Gauahar Khan took to social media and slammed Tanya. The Bigg Boss 7 winner – who had earlier praised Mittal’s game, criticised her for her body-shaming Ashnoor, calling it “absolutely disgusting.” Read on to see all she said.

Gauahar Khan Slams Tanya Mittal For Body-Shaming Ashnoor Kaur In Bigg Boss 19

Earlier today, Friday, October 31, Gauahar Khan took to her Instagram Stories and shared a video message, in which she called out Tanya’s recent comments. She begins the video by saying, “Initially, mujhe lagta tha ki Tanya bohot hi sorted, bholi, drame waali hai. And that she was very entertaining. And I still think she is entertaining but the way she is body shaming Ashnoor behind her back is absolutely disgusting. (Initially, I used to think Tanya was very sorted, innocent, a bit dramatic — and quite entertaining. I still find her entertaining, but the way she’s been body-shaming Ashnoor behind her back is absolutely disgusting.)”

The mom of two continued, “Calling her ‘haathi’ in the task, and saying things like ‘21 saal ki nahi lagti hai’, ‘kitni chubby hai’, ‘iska toh weight put on ho raha hai.’ (She called her elephant during a task and said things like, ‘She doesn’t look 21,’ ‘She’s so chubby,’ and ‘She’s putting on weight).’

Gauahar further highlighted an incident that took place two weeks ago, wherein Tanya commented on Ashnoor’s dress. She said, “About two weeks ago, Ashnoor came out wearing a dress, and Neelam said she looked nice. Tanya added, ‘She looks like Barbie.’ But as soon as Ashnoor left, Tanya said, ‘When did I say she looked nice? I only said she looked like Barbie,’ and then both of them laughed.”

Gauahar Khan: “You’re Not Truly Beautiful”

Slamming Tanya Mittal for her body shamming comments, Gauahar Khan said, “I just don’t understand why someone would comment on another person’s looks and then talk behind their back, saying they don’t look good. Everyone has the right to feel and believe that they’re beautiful. And if you think you’re at the top of beauty standards, that’s fine. But if you put others down to make yourself feel prettier, then you’re not beautiful at all. Because more than being beautiful, it’s important to be good-hearted. No matter how virtuous you pretend to be, if your thoughts aren’t kind, you’re not truly beautiful.”

Ashnoor Kaur’s Father Fires Back At Bigg Boss 19 Housemates: ‘Why So Insecure Of A 21-Year-Old?’

by jummy84
written by jummy84

In the latest dramatic turn inside Bigg Boss 19, 21-year-old contestant Ashnoor Kaur has found her father stepping into the spotlight to defend her after a series of body-shaming remarks from fellow contestants. On Thursday, Ashnoor’s father, Gurmeet Singh, took to Instagram to directly confront comments made by housemates Kunickaa Sadanand, Neelam Giri and Tanya Mittal- turning a reality-TV spat into a wider conversation about dignity, age and respect.

In his post, Gurmeet called out the contestants by sharing a reel of their remarks about Ashnoor’s body and fitness efforts. “Why is everyone so insecure about a 21-year-old?” he asked. “Oh, I know… they just can’t match her levels of dignity and grace.” His words spread quickly online, attracting praise from fans and fellow celebrities who accused the show of allowing bullying under the guise of entertainment.

Remarks on Ashnoor Kaur stem Controversy

The backlash stems from a now-viral clip showing Tanya, Neelam and Kunickaa seated together at the dining table, discussing Ashnoor’s physique while noting that though she apparently does a detox diet and works out, she still hasn’t lost weight. Neelam asks, “Kitni moti hai, sara din gym karti hai fir bhi itni moti kaise?” (“She’s so fat; she goes to the gym all day and still hasn’t changed”), while Tanya adds that Ashnoor’s dresses would suit them better. Kunickaa reportedly chimed in, saying even her thirteen-year-old granddaughter knows better diet habits.

In another flashpoint moment during a task, Kunickaa allegedly “manhandled” Ashnoor and made disparaging comments behind her back—actions that have further fuelled the controversy.

Ashnoor Kaur

The father’s intervention

Gurmeet’s public reply is significant because it steps beyond the usual reality-show reactions. Rather than issuing a private caution to the makers, he addressed the housemates — and the broader audience — directly. His tone combined frustration and protectiveness, calling out what he saw as a targeted campaign of shaming against his daughter. By highlighting her “dignity and grace,” he reframed Ashnoor not as a victim but as someone who commands respect, challenging the notion that body-shaming is acceptable banter on national TV.

In airing the reel, he also tacitly challenged the balance of power: four older contestants “debating” a younger woman’s body in her presence, while she stood silent. His intervention opens the door to serious questions—about where the line is between playful jibe and bullying, and whether reality formats are doing enough to protect contestants.

Broader implications

The incident has escalated quickly on social media. Fans, celebrities and columnists have called the housemates’ remarks “shameful,” arguing that public humiliation for ratings is unacceptable. Actress Jannat Zubair wrote, “A person’s body is not public property for jokes and opinions… We should have evolved past body-shaming by now.”

Media critics say this episode underscores a recurring problem: when contestants are subject to remarks about weight, age or appearance, it deflects from talent and character, and instead selects vulnerability as spectacle. The fact that Ashnoor’s father had to respond publicly shows the impact such remarks have beyond the screen. Coming from the parent of a young actor, the message gains weight: this isn’t just reality TV drama; it’s about the psychological welfare of participants who are often thrust into ruthless environments.

The show’s makers and host Salman Khan have not yet formally responded to this specific incident — though fans are demanding action and an official acknowledgement on the next Weekend Ka Vaar. Meanwhile, pundits argue that how the producers handle this moment will speak volumes about whether Bigg Boss is simply an entertainment spectacle or a platform with accountability.

What’s next

Ashnoor continues to remain in the house and is yet to publicly address the remarks or her father’s intervention. Instead, much of the focus has shifted to how the show might manage the fallout. Will Tanya, Neelam and Kunickaa face in-house consequences or simply ride out the backlash? Will viewers’ outrage translate into votes and eventual eviction? And most importantly: will reality TV networks and hosts take a firmer stance on body-shaming going forward?

For now, the story remains unresolved. But the father’s strong stand has reframed the narrative—from dismissible banter to a conversation about dignity, youth and respect in the glare of public spectacle. Whether the show, the housemates or the audience adapts remains to be seen. What is clear, however, is that this episode has crossed from mere house drama into a test of how community standards are upheld on reality television.

Ashnoor Kaur Body-Shaming Controversy: Bigg Boss 19 Contestants Face Backlash! | Glamsham.com

Controversy has erupted inside the Bigg Boss 19 house after contestants Kunickaa Sadanand, Amaal Mallik, Shehbaz Badesha, Neelam Giri, and Tanya Mittal were caught body shaming fellow contestant Ashnoor Kaur. Their insensitive remarks triggered outrage among viewers, celebrities, and Ashnoor’s family, who have called out for accountability on the show.

The issue began gaining attention when Ashnoor’s father, Gurmeet Singh, took to Instagram to express his anger at the defamatory comments aimed at his 21-year-old daughter. He shared a video compilation of what the contestants had said and wrote, “Why is everyone so insecure about a 21-year-old? Oh, I know… they can’t match her levels of dignity and grace.” His response quickly went viral, with fans praising him for standing up for his daughter.

The viral clips showed composer Amaal Mallik and Shehbaz Badesha mocking Ashnoor’s appearance. “Ande jaisi shakal hai (she has an egg-like face),” said Amaal. Shehbaz added, “She has become a thepla.” Meanwhile, another group comprising Kunickaa Sadanand, Tanya Mittal, and Neelam Giri was seen gossiping about Ashnoor’s fitness routine and body type. Sitting at the dining table, they wondered how the young actress, who follows a detox diet and works out every day, had not shed those extra kgs. “Kitni moti hai, sara din gym karti hai fir bhi itni moti kaise? Uske dresses hum par zyada suit karenge,” Neelam and Tanya said, making fun of her body type.

Tanya even went ahead to say that Ashnoor looked older than the rest of them, while Kunickaa added, “Even my 13-year-old granddaughter knows what to eat and what not to.” In another clip shown during a task, Tanya was heard calling Ashnoor “haathi” (elephant), further fueling viewers’ anger.

The audience quickly took to social media, condemning the behaviour of the contestants and asked host Salman Khan to take up the issue during Weekend Ka Vaar. The fans asked for strict action to be taken as such remarks were “unacceptable” and “disgusting” on national television.

The dignified Ashnoor Kaur, who carries herself with poise on-screen and off, got immense support from her fans and celebrities alike. Celebrities such as Rohan Mehra, Kamya Panjabi, Manu Punjabi, and Gauahar Khan extended open support on social media for her, saying that body shaming needs to be stopped and that reality shows should have kindness instead.

Jannat Zubair Rallies Behind Ashnoor Kaur After ‘Body-Shaming’ Row On Bigg Boss 19

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Television actress Jannat Zubair has taken a firm stand against body-shaming after fellow contestant Ashnoor Kaur was targeted within the house of Bigg Boss 19. The reaction came after a clip from the show went viral, showing housemates including Tanya Mittal, Kunickaa Sadanand and Neelam Giri making derogatory remarks about Ashnoor’s physique—sparking outrage both online and among Ashnoor’s peers in the industry. Jannat’s outspoken support adds a high-profile voice to the mounting criticism surrounding the show’s environment.

It all began when a live feed from the Bigg Boss 19 house showed Ashnoor standing alongside co-contestant Pranit More, during which Tanya asked Neelam, “Jurassic Park dekhoge?” while pointing at Ashnoor; Kunickaa was seen laughing at the comment. Subsequent remarks by the trio about Ashnoor’s gym efforts and body shape caused widespread backlash. The clip quickly spread across social platforms, leading to numerous calls for accountability.

Reacting to the public uproar, Jannat posted her support for Ashnoor on Instagram. She wrote:

“A person’s body is not public property for jokes and opinions. It’s 2025. We should’ve evolved past body-shaming by now. She’s on that stage because she’s talented, confident and unstoppable—not because she fits someone’s idea of a ‘perfect body’. Proud of you, @ashnoorkaur, for holding your head high and being you!”

Her message resonated across fan communities and the entertainment industry alike. The outpouring of support for Ashnoor also included a strong response from actor Rohan Mehra, who took to X (formerly Twitter) to harshly criticize the housemates’ behaviour. “Body-shaming is unacceptable. What happened to @ashnoorkaur today was wrong and needs to be called out. Respect and kindness should be the bare minimum. Shame on you, @iam_kunickaasadanand, @neelamgiri_ and @tanyamittalofficial,” his post read.

The incident has thrown a spotlight on the larger issues of respect and dignity within reality television, especially on a show as popular as Bigg Boss. The platform often thrives on tension and spectacle, but many viewers felt that this episode crossed into harmful territory. Complaints poured in, not just about the specific comments, but about the environment that allowed them to go unchecked. Many argued that such remarks affect young contestants psychologically and set a poor example for audiences.

Inside the show, it remains unclear whether any internal disciplinary action has been taken by the makers—no statement has emerged yet acknowledging the incident or naming consequences. Viewers are now waiting to see whether Weekend Ka Vaar (the show’s weekly highlight) will address this controversy and hold contestants accountable. The silence, for many, is as telling as the comments themselves.

For Ashnoor, the support from Jannat and others may serve as a morale-boost in what is clearly a challenging moment. At just 21, she has already been part of the TV industry for years and is now dealing with national scrutiny of a deeply personal nature. Her poise during the incident and subsequent reactions suggest she is determined not to let the situation define her.

The broader takeaway is two-fold: one, the responsibility for creating a respectful environment on reality shows lies not just with contestants but with production teams and broadcasters; two, public figures like Jannat Zubair entering the conversation lend weight to the demand for better standards. By speaking up, she shifted part of the spotlight away from the drama of the show and onto the behaviour being displayed.

As the episode continues to ripple through online communities, one message stands out: body-shaming is not entertainment. It’s personal. It’s hurtful. And its appearance—even under the guise of reality TV banter—deserves scrutiny. Jannat Zubair’s intervention may not change everything overnight, but it underlines that there is a boundary—even in the most chaotic of TV realities, dignity must be preserved.

‘High Potential’ Boss Breaks Down Morgan’s Romantic Spark, Karadec’s Threat to Wagner, and More Midseason Finale Twists (Exclusive)

by jummy84
written by jummy84

What To Know

  • High Potential showrunner Todd Harthan teases what fans can expect from the show’s midseason return in 2026.
  • After a cliffhanger conclusion, Harthan teases more romance for Morgan, tension between Karadec and Wagner.
  • The Roman mystery also continues to thicken as Harthan hints at what’s next for Morgan’s missing ex.

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for High Potential, Season 2 Episode 7, “The One That Got Away.”]

High Potential‘s second season has reached its midseason finale, leaving fans on a cliffhanger that won’t be resolved until Season 2 returns on January 6, 2026, but thankfully, showrunner Todd Harthan is making sure fans are fed until then, as we caught up with the writer and executive producer timed to the latest episode, “The One That Got Away.”

As fans saw in the installment, Morgan (Kaitlin Olson) and the LAPD were called in to investigate the case surrounding a piece of stolen art. Also on the case? The mysterious and suave Rhys (Aiden Turner), an art dealer and consultant who sparks Morgan’s curiosity. As the investigation unfolds, Morgan is drawn closer and closer to Rhys, even sharing a passionate moment in a hotel room, which raises red flags when she begins to believe he is responsible for stealing the art.

Meanwhile, Morgan’s daughter Ava (Amirah J) gets closer to Arthur (Mekhi Phifer) as they plot out their team-up to dig into Roman’s case, in juxtaposition with Soto’s (Judy Reyes) ongoing search for the missing man that Captain Wagner (Steve Howey) has become aware of, much to Karadec’s (Daniel Sunjata) dismay.

While the missing art case remained unsolved, there were more than a few mysteries left unresolved. Below, Harthan offers some clarity as he teases what fans can expect in the new year.

Disney / Mitch Haaseth

This episode ends on a cliffhanger with the case set to continue next year in the midseason premiere. What made you decide to make it a continuing storyline?

Todd Harthan: When our wonderful director Nancy Hower read the script, it was originally just a one-partner, and admittedly a little long, and she goes, “Oh, what if we added some more twists and turns, another red herring, and really expanded this?” Because what she identified was the DNA of this episode was so different than how we started the season with the Game Maker. The tone of it was more fun. It was more Thomas Crown Affair. We were introducing a character, a consultant-turned-suspect, that Morgan was going to be drawn to in a mysterious way, which also felt worth sort of extending in a delicious way. So it was just one of those things that happened in real time, and then we got Aiden, who is a wonderful actor, to play the part. It was one of those things where it just started to make sense, and once we knew we were going to leave the audience wanting more, that was a deciding factor.

Morgan connects with this art dealer, Rhys, and it’s the first time we’ve seen her have a romantic entanglement since Tom (JD Pardo) in Season 1. Should fans buy into the potential she has with this guy, or is it a fleeting thing, considering he’s seemingly a criminal?

Well, I think when we were looking for someone to play this role, we didn’t want someone smarmy. We needed somebody who was charming, smart. What would Morgan be drawn to? So, again, it’s sort of like The Thomas Crown Affair because it really was sort of the seed of inspiration for this, and you think about Pierce Brosnan in that movie; he was just almost too hard to resist. And so we needed to find that actor who had that level of confidence and charm without it being arrogant, and [Aiden]’s like that in person too. He just has a natural easiness about him when he walks into a room. And so that translated to the fictional character he’s playing.

You’ll see in the premiere next year that not everything is as it seems. It certainly feels like this guy is the guy, but there are some things coming that are going to really make Morgan go, “Wait, is he a criminal?” Lots of people have scars, and is it a coincidence? We’re going to play with all those elements in the premiere. And I think the finish is super surprising in the second part. You have to wait and see, but he was wonderful and they had great chemistry, and we’ve been very fortunate [to have] our pick of really amazing actors.

Steve Howey in 'High Potential'

Disney / Mitch Haaseth

Building off of that, Morgan is torn over who the painting belongs to, especially since it was stolen in the past as well as now. Is that going to continue to play into the case? 

Yes, a hundred percent. It’s a through line that carries into the second hour, and I think if we’re going to set something up like that, the history of that painting, the importance of it, who it originally belonged to, it’s not a ball you want to drop.

Captain Wagner reveals that he knows the LAPD is investigating Roman’s whereabouts. How will that impact Soto’s forward movement with that case, especially after Karadec’s threat to Wagner that he isn’t allowed to mess with Morgan on that end?

Well, one of the things we’re playing with Wagner is, is he an ally or an enemy, right? Because we toggle in every episode. You’re like, “Wait, is he here to have our backs or is he going to stab us in the back?” And I think that’s a question we want to ask until we get to the back half of the season. That’s the question Soto is asking herself, which is, he’s in the know, does that mean he’s going to be the wind at our backs and help us, or is he going to out us or impede the investigation? Shut it down? He has the power to do that, so what role will he play? And those are the things we’re unpacking in an interesting twisty turny way when we come back.

As the Roman mystery continues to unfold, will Arthur and Ava play a more active role, as we saw them plotting a team-up? 

Yeah, Mekhi’s been awesome, and he’s infused into the back half of the season as we sort of continue to unpack more and more about what happened to Roman all those years ago. And for Ava, she’s her mother’s daughter, there’s just no way for her to lie her head down at night and not be thinking about now that she knows her dad’s out there somewhere and he is alive, where is he? So it’s hard to contain that drive. And even Morgan’s going to struggle with it in the back half of how do I help us? And mostly, she’s doing this to get answers for her daughter. How do I help us get those answers, but not put her in a situation that is dangerous? We’re playing with all those different complications in the back half.

Karadec’s words to Wagner are interesting. Will they be adversaries moving forward?

In the back half, those guys are oil and water, and they just can’t agree on anything when it relates to how they work with and manage Morgan, their approach to law enforcement, and just their ideologies in life in general. They just could not be more different. That’s fun to write to because one of them says the sky is blue, and the other one is like, “No, it’s not, and here’s why.” And that really starts to fuel tension, conflict, all the things that we want. Karadec’s a protector by nature, and it’s less about protecting himself. This is his department, these are his people, and he feels like they’re kind of being threatened on some levels. So he’s sticking his neck out in the back half. He really is. He’s saying some things, some truth to power that could really get him in trouble, but it’s been fun to watch and fun to write to.

Morgan continues to push boundaries. Is that going to come back to bite her at some point? 

She gets burned, and she gets burned in a major way in the back half. It all comes to a head, and we have a wonderful episode that we just shot, kind of built around that. But I think the fun thing about Morgan is she’s never going to change. She’s not going to suddenly show up and be like, “Okay, I’ll follow all the rules to the letter.” She’s just going to get better at how she goes about it. But yeah, it gets crazy and messy pretty early on in the back half.
