Terrific Oscar-nominated actress Shohreh Aghdashloo makes occasional appearances throughout the season as Dinah's mother Farah, a psychiatrist who provides her daughter with emotional support when the chips are down.

Unfortunately, though, hiring a world-class actress of Aghdashloo's caliber was mostly pointless here, as she gets about 10 minutes of screen time during the entire season, and does very little that sticks in the mind for long.

Considering that she's clearly deserving of a much meatier role in the MCU, it's a shame her potential has been blown on a nothing character that could've gone to any random jobbing TV actress.
