Sarah Jones embodies Miss Carousel with this effortless grace that’s hard to look away from. I love how she balances the character’s calculated moves with moments of genuine warmth—like when she surprises everyone by defending the underdog in episode four. It’s a testament to her skill that she makes such a stylized role feel real. Plus, her chemistry with the rest of the cast? Flawless.
I was completely captivated by Miss Carousel's character when I first saw her on screen—there's this magnetic charm she brings to every scene. After some digging (and a bit of obsessive Googling), I found out she’s played by the talented Sarah Jones, who’s absolutely nailed the role with her mix of elegance and sharp wit. Jones has this way of making Miss Carousel feel like someone you’d want to both have tea with and fear crossing, which is perfect for the character’s arc. Her performance adds so much depth to the show, especially in those quieter moments where she’s just observing the chaos around her.
What’s really cool is how Jones layers the character—she’s not just the polished, enigmatic figure the others see. There are glimpses of vulnerability, like when she’s alone in her office or during that tense confrontation in episode seven. It’s those little details that make her portrayal stand out. I’ve followed Jones’ work since she appeared in 'Alcatraz,' and it’s been great seeing her range expand. If you haven’t checked out her other roles, you’re missing out!

I fought my sister, Anna, for two lifetimes to become the Donna.
In my first life, I got what I wanted. I became Lorenzo's woman. People said he loved me as if I were the air in his lungs. When he learned that I loved to dance, he bought an entire ballet company to keep me onstage.
Then he broke my legs. He confined me to a wheelchair and displayed me like an ornament.
One day, he brushed his fingers across my face and finally told me the truth.
"I've seen enough dancing," he said. "And the one I truly love was never you."
I died in that room, swallowed by despair.
In my second life, I stepped aside and gave the Donna's seat to Anna.
"You go," I told her. "The one Lorenzo really loves is you."
I believed that choice would save us. I believed Anna would have the happy ending I never did.
Five years later, they sent her back.
Her legs were intact this time, but she couldn’t move them either.
Lorenzo no longer treated her as a person. He had turned her into a ballerina statue, encased in plaster and posed at what he called her most beautiful moment, frozen in place.
His men delivered the message without a trace of feeling.
"He got tired of watching the younger sister dance," they said. "So he preserved her at her most beautiful."
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself in my third life. Once more, the Don's men delivered a ballet invitation.
Anna and I stared at it. The same question burned in both of us.
If neither of us was the one he loved, then who was Lorenzo really watching?

Miss Lucy in the TV series is portrayed by the talented actress Sarah Jones. She brings this character to life with such depth and nuance that it's hard to imagine anyone else in the role. I first noticed her in 'Alcatraz', where she had this magnetic presence, and seeing her as Miss Lucy was a delightful surprise. Her ability to switch between warmth and sternness is what makes the character so memorable.
Sarah's performance adds layers to Miss Lucy that weren't even in the original scripts. There's a scene where she subtly conveys disappointment just by adjusting her glasses—it's masterful. If you enjoy character-driven shows, her portrayal is worth analyzing for how she balances authority with hidden vulnerability.
Oh, Miss Little from that show! The actress is actually someone I've followed for a while—her name's Emily Watson. She brings this quiet intensity to the role that's just mesmerizing. I first noticed her in 'Breaking the Waves,' and she's got this knack for portraying vulnerability with such raw honesty. In the series, she transforms Miss Little into this layered character who’s equal parts stern and secretly compassionate. Watson’s performance makes you lean in every time she’s on screen, especially in those subtle moments where she lets the character’s guard down. It’s the kind of acting that sticks with you long after the episode ends.
Funny enough, I recently rewatched the series and picked up on little nuances I’d missed before—like how Watson uses pauses to build tension. It’s masterful. If you haven’t seen her other work, like 'Chernobyl,' you’re missing out. She’s one of those actors who elevates every project she’s in.
The Magic Queen in the TV series is portrayed by Eva Green, and let me tell you, she absolutely steals every scene she’s in. I first saw her in 'Penny Dreadful', where her hauntingly intense performance convinced me she was born to play enigmatic, powerful women. Here, she brings this mesmerizing mix of elegance and danger to the role—like every glance could either seduce you or curse you. The way she balances vulnerability with raw power makes the character feel so layered.
What’s fascinating is how the show leans into her theatrical background. Her delivery of cryptic prophecies feels like watching a Shakespearean soliloquy, but with modern, witchy flair. I’ve rewatched her scenes just to catch the subtle gestures—the way her fingers twitch when casting spells or how her voice drops to a whisper when threatening someone. It’s masterclass acting wrapped in a fantasy series.
Man, Missty from that TV series is such a standout character, isn't she? The role is played by the talented actress Zhang Xiaofei. I first noticed her in some smaller roles, but she absolutely killed it as Missty—bringing this perfect mix of vulnerability and sharp wit to the character. Zhang Xiaofei has this way of making even the smallest gestures feel loaded with meaning, which is why Missty’s scenes always hit so hard.
Funny enough, I later found out she’s also a trained dancer, which explains how she moves with such grace on screen. It’s wild how some actors just fit a role like they were born for it. If you haven’t seen her other work, like in 'Hi, Mom,' you’re missing out—she’s got range for days.
