I worked as Art Director for Tommy Wiseau, he gave me one check (which was also money I was supposed to buy props, etc with and he’d reimburse me). After a few weeks it became clear that was not my weekly rate, but my ENTIRE payment for however long this production would run.
A few other things about TW
-He would regularly pretend to strangle you as a gag
-Would constantly remind you to drink water, but I’ve only ever seen him drink something called Blue Energy
-Would genuinely get angry if he even thought someone was suggesting he was French
Wow this blew up 😅 So that was one of my earliest and worst Hollywood gigs ever. Ten years later I’m working in the writers room in my favorite gig ever. Check out Dead Boy Detectives on Netflix. It drops TODAY!!
He also had a massive hoarding problem. His green screen room was full wall to wall with junk, props, The Room merch, dusty equipment. All of this could make have gone on shelves but those were currently housing trash bags full of basketballs reading “TW Sports: Let’s Play It”
Fuck it!

Dives head first into any situation. Confident, blindly optimistic sort of chap who brings folks together with your cheerful disposition. Brills!
Jenn is so real for this. Seriously please watch

, tell your friends and fam how great it is. We would love to all have jobs and make more of it for you.
The fact that actors have to say stuff like this is appalling and shameful for studios. Streaming is NOT cable. Cable had principles, rules, and incentives. Streaming is deceptive, manipulating, and leaching off of creatives.

Nothing about wearing traditionally women’s clothes is sexual and literally no one is naked with any of their genitalia out. You’re getting upset over your own fantasy you’ve concocted
Hi DBD gang! I really enjoy all your questions, fan art and kind words about the show. Just a heads up I can’t respond to any questions about future episode plans and we aren’t taking requests. Love y’all! Thanks for understanding. 💙

This attitude can also lead to tops paying for dinner and thinking that alone earns them sex, so I'm gonna pass on this one. I'm vers, so we're going dutch.

Haha definitely a few. I remember pitching Edwin hearing the word “twinks” and saying “Charles, you must remind me to add these ‘twinks’ to the bestiary”
