Fresh out the oven, still warm. Top of the tray.
Summary
A podcast interview with 'Ponies' co-creators David Iserson and Susanna Fogel discussing how their 1970s Moscow-set spy series about two widowed embassy secretaries turned CIA operatives got greenlit at Peacock. The creators describe the show's improbable path to air, surviving multiple regime changes at the network, and tease what Season 2 will bring. Starring Emilia Clarke and Haley Lu Richardson, the series follows Bea and Twila as wet-behind-the-ears CIA recruits in Cold War-era Moscow.
