‘Barry’ Star Sarah Goldberg on Sally’s Premiere Speech and Being Elsie Fisher’s Biggest Fan

Wilson Chapman editorSpoiler Alert: Do not read if you haven’t watched “all the sauces,” the fourth episode of Season 3 of “Barry,” streaming now on HBO Max.The first two seasons of Alec Berg and Bill Hader’s “Barry” followed the title character (played by Hader) as he barely maintained a double life between his hitman career and his newfound pursuit of acting.

The character was able to keep these two worlds separate less because of any actions on his part than because of the self-absorption of the people he surrounded himself with — chief among them his love interest, Sally Reed.

As played with gleefully neurotic, manic energy by Canadian actor Sarah Goldberg, Sally is convinced she was born for success, and is so single-mindedly focused on her career that she’s not paying nearly enough attention to spot any of the warning signs that Barry’s a killer.

Season 3, however, has brought forth big changes for the character, who now has a taste of success in the form of a development deal with streaming service “Banshee,” to create a television series “Joplin” based on her previous abusive relationship.
