Viewer discretion advised!





     My colleague, actor Tom Puckett, tried background work for one summer.  He turned his experiences into a book, The Big Blur,

     Usually, an actor might not choose to acknowledge that they have done background work.  Usually, once an actor has an agent, doing background work is not encouraged.  Well, I, for one, have no shame and I am proud of my background work.  I have enjoyed doing background work and even if I am not seen in the final product, if I enjoy viewing the final product then I like to boast about the piece of work.

     Last year I did background work on WORKAHOLICS, a pilot for Comedy Central.  WORKAHOLICS premiered on Comedy Central on April 6, 2011.  The show may not be everyone's cup of tea but my hard working husband sat and watched the premier episode and was entertained as was I.  You won't see me if you watch it.   Here is the link.  Remember, viewer discretion advised!
