Amber Tamblyn, star of CBS' hit supernatural series Joan of Arcadia, told SCI FI Wire that she just finished shooting a scene with her real-life father, actor Russ Tamblyn, and some family dynamics spilled over. "I think everybody was really excited, because they were like, 'What's the scene going to be like?'" Tamblyn said in an interview at CBS' recent winter press preview. "And I stepped on a couple of his lines, and he, like, yelled at me, like he does at home. Like, 'No, you wait!' And we totally started bickering at each other. The first [assistant director] was like, 'OK, no family feuding on the set. Let's just take a breather. Calm down,'" she added with a laugh.
In an episode to air in February, the elder Tamblyn appears as God in the form of a hippie dog walker, Amber said. "He actually grew his beard out so that he could look scruffy, like a hippie," she said. "It was a lot of fun. He was walking six dogs, these big dogs, and they started wrapping around us and tying us up together. It's going to be a really funny scene." Off the set, Amber said that longtime actor Russ (West Side Story) doesn't have much advice for the rapidly rising young star, who was just nominated for a Golden Globe Award. "My dad is terribly way too laid back for me," she said. "Like, when I start stressing over something, he's so laid back. ... He just says, especially for things like award shows and things like that, he's, like, 'Look at it as a three-ring circus. Just have fun. Look at how fun and funny people are and just enjoy yourself.'" Will Russ Tamblyn be back on Joan? "It was just one day," Amber said. "It was short. But it's my dad. They'll probably bring him back for something else." Joan of Arcadia airs Fridays at 8 p.m. ET/PT. _______________________________________________ Sndbox mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://a8.mewebdns-a8.com/mailman/listinfo/sndbox_sandboxmail.net
