Showtime describes the Season 5 premiere of its British-American comedy Episodes as “everyone is at rock bottom and Matt makes things worse.” The premiere opens with a racy scene between Matt (Matt LeBlanc) and a sexy contestant named Danika on his hit game show, The Box. While she waits in a soundless glass box, Danika seduces Matt and strips down to a white tank top (no bra) and underwear. While Matt cannot touch her – he’s on the outside of the glass box – he tries nonetheless. And Danika knows how to keep his interest. As Matt LeBlanc says of his character on Episodes, “Matt hasn’t evolved at all.”
Danika is portrayed by Sarah Armstrong. She’s known for her roles on The Royals (Rosie) with Elizabeth Hurley, and in the 2016 film Jason Bourne (Tattoo). Armstrong is also known for her stage work. In 2013, she got naked to play the political seductress Christine Keeler at London’s Charing Cross Theatre. The production was based on Keeler’s 2001 autobiography The Truth At Last. Episodes airs Sundays at 10pm on Showtime.
