Call Me Kat

Will & Grace
Will & Grace would've been nothing without Karen Walker's nemesis, Beverley Leslie. The role as the wise-cracking socialite made Leslie a sitcom legend, and we couldn't be more grateful.
American Horror Story: Coven
Leslie first joined the American Horror Story franchise for the anthology series' third iteration, known as Coven. In the show, Leslie played a Truman Capote-esque warlock named Quentin Fleming, who was unafraid to condemn his peers to death.
American Horror Story: Roanoke
Leslie appeared in the AHS universe for the second time in season six's Roanoke-inspired chapter. The actor played not one, but two characters: Cricket Marlowe and Ashley Gilbert.
American Horror Story: 1984
The performer looked unrecognizable in American Horror Story: 1984, in which he played personal assistant-turned-ghost who was murdered by his employer.
The Help
In the 2011 adaptation of Kathryn Stockett's novel The Help, Leslie played the editor of The Jackson Journal, where Emma Stone's Skeeter got her first job. Though it may've been a minor role, it was certainly a memorable one.

Boston Legal
In 2005, Leslie had a recurring arc as serial killer Bernard Ferrion on the ABC drama Boston Legal. His character was famously killed with a frying pan by Betty White's Catherine.

Boston Legal wasn't the only David E. Kelley series Leslie appeared in. You can find Leslie as Dr. Benjamin Harris in five episodes of Boston Legal's predecessor, Boston Public.
The People Next Door
You don't want to miss Leslie as Truman Fipps in The People Next Door. The 1989 comedy followed a cartoonist that could bring his wildest fantasies to life.
