A jerk in Tru Calling?


"Zach Galifianakis (Davis) disliked working on the show. He immediately left after table readings, throwing his script in the garbage and give sarcastic remarks to the writers. He has also smoked alot of marijuana off the set."

If the series' trivia is true, he really is an unprofessional a**hole. Don't like the script? Don't work.

Boycott movies that involve real animal violence! (and their directors too)

I used to love him in Tru Calling until I read his comments about the show just now. What a disappointment! Does he not know that show had quite the following? I guess this is another topic actors should not discuss...disliking previous work and politics...

He talks about it in some podcasts. He absolutely did it and it's hilarious.

Story I heard was that he was led to believe something other than what was fact was happening (re: similar to Ginger on Gilligan's Island, but he knew he wasn't supposed to be the lead), and the work environment was already hostile for other reasons before he decided to start acting like that.

From what I hear, this happened more often than you realize on some sets, but the modern media has made it more of an open secret, these days. Sometimes it becomes a known thing (Re: Roseanne) and sometimes, it's not revealed until later, esp if one actor goes on to something better.
