The Big Picture Since the very first episode of Max's genius comedy, Hacks, nothing has been clearer to the audience than the fact that Deborah Vance will do anything to get to the top. In the first season, Deborah enlists the help of a writer, Ava Daniels , who inspires Deborah to follow her ambitions again. And the greatest dream that Deborah ever allowed herself to hope for was her own late-night talk show hosting gig.
Hacks TV-MAComedyDrama 910 Explores a dark mentorship that forms between Deborah Vance, a legendary Las Vegas comedian, and an entitled, outcast 25-year-old. But it's not just Ava whose life is affected by Deborah's new gig. More chaos ensues in the episode when Kayla threatens to quit after feeling like Jimmy didn't support her enough. After Jimmy pleads with her to stay, she negotiates, and he names her a partner . Plus, the always underappreciated Marcus seems to be on his way out the door. As with Ava, Deborah continues to underestimate his value.
