Tracey Returns to “Elsbeth”

Tracey will return in an upcoming episode of Elsbeth, this time as a new character, Betty Heymouth. This news (and preview) comes courtesy of TV Insider. Tracey guest-starred last season as Marilyn Gladwell, a psychic. Betty is described as a “veteran gossip columnist who thrives on the power of knowing other people’s secrets, but would do anything to protect her own.”

Elsbeth executive producer and showrunner Jonathan Tolins explains the recast:

“We wanted to celebrate the time-honored TV procedural tradition of bringing back former guest stars in entirely new roles — and who better than Tracey Ullman?” Tolins says. “She’s legendary for her ability to transform, and everyone at Elsbeth was thrilled she was willing to come play with us again.”

Catch Tracey in the penultimate episode of season 3 of Elsbeth, May 14, 2026 at 10/9c on CBS!
