Leslie is wife of idiot Exec Producer and mother of Junior their lazy-ass son.

She’s the real brains of the company, but even she can’t seem to get Ken and Kendra in the same room at the same time.

If she figures out Kendra and Shaya’s desperate scheme for their one shot at a career-making big break, she could ruin everything.
