'Hacks' won big. Deserved.
."I think I just have been incredibly blessed and lucky," she modestly replies when I mention the esteem of a resume such as hers. But it simply cannot be denied how much the success of this show is a rare creative symbiosis in which every element seems to simultaneously feed off of the others while providing sustenance all the same.
I was sent the first three episodes before I met with Lucia, Jen and Paul, who are the creators, and I could not believe — I mean, I do read a lot of scripts and sometimes I'm surprised by the things that are greenlit.

Because in life, Hannah is a stand-up comedian who struggles with all of the same issues that Ava does. So it was very important to give her a sense of realness. We did a lot of vintage shopping for her.
