My Take
Rebecca Wisocky is one of those actors I clock immediately even when I can't place the name. As Hetty on Ghosts she walks a tightrope between imperious and oddly vulnerable, and I think that's the through-line of her whole career. She trained at NYU's Tisch program, then built a deep resume of stage and guest-star work before the sitcom finally made her a household face. To me she's the kind of veteran character actor a show leans on to make everyone else better, and I find her late-career bloom genuinely satisfying to watch.
