Ball stars as the young “feminist” husband of a woman grieving the loss of her dad. He introduces his new coworker, the titular Becky Shaw, into a complicated family dynamic.  “Each one of these characters are equally flawed and damaged — and also equally justifiable and redeemable,” says Ball, adding that he was attracted to the show’s overt versus covert power dynamics at play. “I thought that was really interesting, especi...
