User Reviews

Fun, fast-paced series

Fun, fast-paced series following the trials and tribulations of life as a struggling actor. Interesting insights for us non-actors on why some people get cast and others don't, with peeks into the seamier side of "the business."

I suppose I missed the episodes where they talk about *why* they want to be an actor, but that would be interesting background.

Watching some of them in auditions and acting class makes me feel as if I could act better, though ... some of them are quite shrill and/or wooden.
