“Shelley Thompson’s portrayal of Mary Mercer, the matriarch of the Mercer family, is nothing short of mesmerizing. Her ability to embody the strength, vulnerability, and complex emotions of a mother struggling to hold her family together amidst turmoil is remarkable. Thompson brings a depth of nuance to her character, capturing Mary’s inner conflicts and fierce determination with equal grace.”
