‘So Help Me Todd’ star Skylar Astin on TV’s quirkiest mother/son combo
So Help Me Todd” stars Marcia Gay Harden and Sklyar Astin — by turns funny, offbeat and all-too-human — has driven the CBS dramedy to a breakout inaugural season … and an early Season 2 renewal.The series returns March 2 (9 p.m.) with new episodes after a two-week hiatus. It centers on the mother-and-son dynamic between high-powered attorney Margaret Wright (Harden) and her ingratiating son, Todd (Astin), a talented, quirky, somewhat reckless private investigator who, after losing his license, is hired by his mom to snoop around for information that will help her clients.
