Quotes grabbed from the article ...
"Pete’s sleazy ways serve more as an escape from his acid-tongued wife Tammy , played with startling clarity by Kari Nissena."
RMP: What is it like working with Kari Nissena?
Thom: She is an amazing actress. I mean you couldn’t even recognize her. And I mean this character was off the wall. So I called Joey and was like, I found our Tammy. I mean her acting was out of this world. So I told Joey to visit her Web site, and he did. I mean, yeah, she’s good. But that’s the thing that people don’t realize. She’s blonde, and she’s petite, she’s not like the Tammy on screen. We really needed to bring her in and she just blew Joey out of the water when she read it. If you need proof, here’s her dedication. She gained 35 pounds for the role and she brought in wigs. What you see there, she looks nothing like that. You would never know she was Tammy if you saw her on the street. She comes to the screenings and no one can believe that was her. It really was a tour de force. When I still see her performance, it gives me chills. I absolutely loved her performance, she’s a powerhouse....She’s a tremendous talent. But most importantly, she’s a sweetheart, a nice person and a consummate professional......
