Jean Smart is revealing that a joke about the Salem witch trials on 'Hacks' was based on her own Wiccan genealogy. The actress is descended from Dorcas Hoar, who was arrested for witchcraft in 1692.
learned that lesson firsthand when she discovered she was descended from Dorcas Hoar, a woman born in 1635 and later accused of being a witch. Smart's acclaimed dramedy series"I found out that my eight-times-great-grandmother on the maternal side was convicted of witchcraft in Salem in 1692. I had no idea,""Ava's pitching jokes and she's going like, 'It says here you're like, maybe a descendant of a witch. That could be great. We could incorporate that.
Smart added that her character, Deborah Vance, was excited to comment on "women being persecuted by a male-dominated society," only to realize that Deborah's descendant was one of the witch trial… accusers. Thus Ava's pitch was quickly abandoned.. The show stars Smart as a ribald, Joan Rivers-esque comedienne who finds a kindred if antagonistic spirit in young comedy writer Ava, herself recently canceled for a questionable tweet.
