Thank you for listening to Pop Culture Happy Hour from NPR.

I'm Linda Holmes, and we will see you all next time.

The new Apple TV series Margo's Got Money Troubles boasts a big and impressive cast.

Elle Fanning, Michelle Pfeiffer, Nick Offerman, Nicole Kidman.

There's no shortage of star power.

It's based on a well-received novel by Rufy Thorpe, and it was created for television by the prolific producer and writer David E. Kelly.

Does the series about a college student whose life gets very complicated when she becomes pregnant and decides to be a single mom live up to the many big names in the credits?

It does, and it's a real pleasure.

I'm Linda Holmes, and today we're talking about Margot's Got Money Troubles on Pop Culture Happy Hour from NPR.

Joining me today is Kristen Meinzer.

She co-hosts the Nightly, a bedtime podcast for pop culture lovers.

Hello, Kristen.

Hi, Linda.

Thanks for having me back.
