Stories about women – the way that they live, the roads that they take, and the strength that the possess are something that we love to watch. Women are complicated creatures, but the simple thing that binds us all? Well, that would be that women (most people really) want nothing more than to be loved.

In Starz’s latest television series – Three Women – the characters are being asked to share about their lives. The gist? Well, that would be that “writer Gia convinces three women to tell her their stories; entrepreneur Sloane, homemaker Lina, and student Maggie are on a crash course to radically overturn their lives.”

Three women and their stories take center stage in the show that has already aired in its entirety in Australia. It was shot for Showtime but is airing on Starz. The 10-episode series feels like a series of short stories wrapped into one long drawn-out book, but that’s not such a bad thing. Why? Because that’s the way life is. Sometimes it is drawn out. Sometimes it feels like a little bit of an overtelling.

Talking with star Betty Gilpin, we wanted to learn more about her character of Lina. It’s always interesting to hear how an actor describes their character.
